This last appointment I was not impressed with the doctor. It seemed he was in a hurry to get in and out and on to the next room. He read off papers about me into his recorder, when I told him that my neck and back hurt worse thanShow more usual he just basically ignored me and kept reading so he wouldn’t have to do it later for the medical recorder to type out. I felt like I was invisible and not listen too! He asked if the pain pills were working I responded that they help with the pain a little when I take them with my baclofen, he responded so yes they help! I really don’t know how much relief he thinks that the norco’s help taking one a day!! When I was on them in the past I was on 10-325 4 to 6 a day so how he thinks 5-325 1a day is suppose to do wonders is beyond me! I honestly felt like it was a waste of my time and money being there!
I had a procedure scheduled three times, twice they would not do it one because of a surgery I just had but the second they did not tell me to stop taking my anti inflammatory and so I had to reschedule again when the medication wShow moreas on my list of meds I take so I showed up twice at 8:30 am for no reason. Dr. Ho is good but I’m still in pain and not getting any even mild relief. The office staff are blasé when it comes to doing anything for the patient’s, they act irreverent, and when you need them to do something the act put out and then it takes an excessive amount of time for them to do it or it just never gets done. I’m not the only patient that feels that way either many of us have talked about how condescending and snobbish the staff are in the Doctors office. Surgery is a different thing everyone there is great and on top of everything.

Great
During my recent epidural procedure ( Monday, 11 Mar 2024) I considered all medical personnel at the Center For Pain Control / Interventional Pain Management to be competent professionals. The attending / operating physician, Dr Ho and Andrew, the anestheologist were both on top of their performance as asual, to include before, during & after my procedure. All medical personnel, including Doctor's & nurses took the time needed to explain what was happening to me & answer all my questions to my complete satisfaction. This process began with Chelsea Dalton, the highly skilled Nurse Practitioner, who after talking with me during my last visit, suggested this particular, somewhat different procedure & then explained it to me fully. I also especially appreciated being treated with respect by all the medical professionals I came into contact with throughout this entire process. To sum up I was completely satisfied with my experience before, during & after my procedure.
