I was treated with respect and really hate to see him quit pain management due to how they treat pain management doctors. It has really made people like me suffer when good doctors have to leave us.

Tried to get a prescription filled and found out my pharmacy stated they would not fill any prescriptions written by this doctor. When I called the office to inquire about this matter, I was rudely told to just go to other pharmacies. Have tried six other pharmacies with no luck.
