Dr.Stefan Gilthorpe saw me as a new patient. He very professional and attentive with great bedside manner. He made sure create a planning starting point for my particular medical needs. He took his time and listened to me wasn't small talking me or being dismissive. So my review is real from my experience. His staff were very nice and helpful. Office wasn't overbooked and it was nice and clean and sets the tone for your appointment. I'd definitely recommend him to anyone in need of pain management even though it's on a completely different side of town from me (2hrs away) I'd continue to make the drive based on how I was treated and cared for.

Yes, I would go back to see him. Dr Gilthorpe was supposed to send my prescription s to my pharmacy yesterday but my pharmacy said they still have not recieved no prescriptions from Dr Gilthorpe as of 10:30 the next day after my appointment on March 12, 2025. Please advise if you find any reason or reasons why my prescriptions were not sent to my pharmacy yesterday? Please advise?
Thank you

I would go back because Dr. Gilthorpe was knowledgeable and a good listener. I didn’t feel rushed. Office staff was nice too. I wished there was an easier way to open the door as I use a walker. The entrance way was little awkward. Office was comfortable.

Dr. Gilthorpe and his team are very professional and kind. I’ve been difficult at times after the back surgery while adapting to the device implanted but now that I’ve had it for several months, I’ve adapted and it’s saved my life. Thanks to all involved in my care.

The Dr has great bedside manner and is very personable. He makes sure you understand the process and communicates until you fully understand.
September 7, 2022Jonathan V.Verified patient
Dr.Gilthorpe and his staff were kind and professional. He listened to my concerns (and more) with compassion and understanding, and addressed them accordingly. He made it clear he would do everything in his power to help me including consulting colleagues for further treatments. He clearly communicated an agreed upon treatment plan after offering several options. I was very happy with the overall service and staff.
