Ballard Wright's Online Review Report Card

This is a terrible clinic to go to. I went there for several years and in the beginning they tried to do some procedures to ease my pain but they didn't really help. Then they just quit trying. I have quit going because they changed my Dr 3 different times and the last time the Dr they had me seeing said instead of giving me the option of taking the pain medication when I needed it she insisted I take it all the time. I tried to do as she said and was struggling with controlling my bodily functions. When I told them I wasn't coming back they informed me that my last 4 or 5 drug screens were dirty which was impossible. I am now going to a different clinic and this new Dr says I have arthritis in my lower back and knee so he I'd planning a procedure to try to get me some relief. And he is listening to me that I DON'T want an excessive amount of pain meds. I do NOT recommend this place at all!

The doctor there has the biggest ego..doesn't prescribe what I asked.and tells me " I have no clue about pain".worst place around

My daughter goes to this clinic and it is terrible. They never get her prescriptions correct when ordering and she suffers terribly. They simply do not care for their patients and I do not recommend tnem.

I have been a patient at this clinic since 2012; If they say something I do not understand regarding procedures etc. , I ask questions because that's what they want you to do. As for waiting times, there have been maybe 2-3 times that I have had an extended wait, but its very rare given the number of people that they see. I live 2 hours away and have no problem traveling to see them because Im not usually there over an hour unless I am having a procedure and they are a little behind. If I take anything new over the counter I always ask a pharmacist how drug screens will read, and always take packaging so they can see for themselves. Unfortunately the drug laws are super strict, and it's sad because so many things can cause a false positive.. today most all pain doctors will refuse to see you if you have a dirty test, not just here. This center has provided me with with more help than I have ever had anywhere else, and I appreciate them all very much! I have to say though that the only dr. That I did not like was dr. Hummel, and I only saw her once maybe twice butI told them I would not see her again due to her rude treatment.

The literal worst, they take forever don’t listen and the doctor told me I would be better if I got pregnant, but also told me my belly was too big.

Awful place. I went with my disabled dad to be an advocate for him. Guess what? They would not let me go back with him for the examination which was a red flag for me. I felt so helpless and sad for him that he was being treated like some sort of inmate or something. They immediately wanted to do injections which have not produced positive results in the past. Did they care? No. Don’t go here for help because you won’t find it.

Unfortunately I've needed their services twice. Both times and currently a patient, service has been fair, timely, and polite. After being treated like an addict and dismissed by other doctors, these people are understanding and thorough. They do push the injection route, which I don't care for. I can't be still enough for an MRI on the first take, let alone having a needle in my spine. After having surgery 7 years ago and being told the next one is a 3 level fusion which WILL need to be done, I'm delaying and these people are allowing me to have a quality of life that won't be possible, post surgery. If you're open, honest, and patient, they will be the same. In case you're wondering: Lumbar spondylosis with myelopathy Lumbar post laminectomy/discectomy Lumbar DDD Lumbar DJD Causalgia Lumbar And lesser issues like herniated and bulging discs working their way up my spine. Hope anyone considering this facility has the same experiences I have. Good luck and don't take the suspicious and dismissive nature of some doctors personally. It's a trickle down effect from our government stepping in where they don't belong and treating pain doctors like criminals. Until the government provides solutions to the problems they cause, these angels are being forced to walk a tightrope and unfortunately someone has to suffer.

Be your own advocate,ask questions,they are extremely thorough,they are truly interested in your total body health,I thank them from the bottom of my heart,couldn't have made it these last few years without them,Dr.Modadugo nurse practitioners & all are excellent caregivers.

Do not help you out at all very rude people there treats you like a addict
