He is a interventional pain management specialist but can or will mot give pain medication he puts all his patients in the same category and even though he says he knows I need the medication that I am not a candidate for a pain pump or stimulator he would not help me cause I was put in a box with all the rest of his patients believe me if I could use it them and her off the medication I would I tried when I took myself off I had a serve heart attack and stroke I asked him to ween me off safely but he refused it give me anything or help me in anyway has to compassion or empathy he took a oath to do no harm but not helping me is harming me in I think of him my cop will not give me another rx snd he would not help me I have protein energy, malnutrition, and do not feel like everybody else therefore, having any kind of foreign object installed into my spine or stomach i am not a good candidate for it would only ha?rm me further

Dr Kanzer is awesome! He is friendly and professional, and immediately came up with a plan to help my pain. He was full of new ideas and suggestions about things we can try to help me out. He is also very helpful when it comes to things that cover all bases such as X-rays, physical therapy and acupuncture. I totally believe that he will be the one to work with me to figure out the root of the problem! He is a great doctor and I would totally recommend him to anyone! Thanks Dr Kanzer!
