Sharon I have been going to pain management for about 4 years an they have help me with pain and it has help me alot . I would never go any place else. I went with no pain at all for 2 years. Now I have to go back because I climb a latter an hurt myself. I don't have nothing to say about none of the people they are very helpful. And she does all she can to make you better

Valerie and her staff are phenomenal! They treat each patient and person coming in and out the doors as a person and not their conditions. Valerie actually listens to you.. she makes things possible, if not she will find someone else to do it! I cannot thank her enough and he staff!

A very nice office and ALL the staff that I had contact with were friendly and very comforting in my case.I will continue my care at this location.

It was very good Thank you very much everyone was very helpful

Do Ho, Takes the time to make sure that he answered all my questions and any concerns that I my have, he showed lots of compassion!

Very nice person to talk with and informative.

I appreciate that you have taken the time to answer all of my questions and providing great services.

Very friendly and courteous. Also very thorough.

Great follow up

Always concerned about my health and feeling. I appreciate her bedside manner.

They take care of me

Everyone,from the front where they check you in, to the time you are ready to leave was AMAZING !! I want to Thank Everyone. And I want to apologize to Emily, she was trying to help me & I got mad at her. I was scared & didn't know that the numbing medicine would make me numb and not able to walk & it would go away if I kept my leg busy. And yes it did get better. I apologize to Emily & anyone else I was mean to because I'm not like that at all, I was just scared because i've never happened before. Otherwise thank everybody. You ladies are amazing. While I was trying to get the numbing medicine to wear off, I could hear you guys back there and what you said to the patient and how kind you were. Everyone should hear what you guys do on a daily basis & how do you take care of everyone who comes through those doors ! Thank All of You ❤️

After having many procedures, the mild procedure seems to have helped the most!

It was very pleasant, she was concerned how felt

Kind and caring doctor would recommend him to anyone

Professional and caring. Listens to the patient and gives solutions. Excellent care

All of my issues were addressed. Unfortunately I still have to have back surgery. The steroid injection took 50% of my pain away but sadly it’s still very painful. They still offered to help me in the future if need be and I appreciate that greatly.

Julie is very caring and very professional, I enjoy my visit with her…

Considerate, kind. Professional educated, great experience. Chelsea answers questions. Have plenty of time with her & other staff. Dr Ho is ok too. Nice person.

Valerie is kind, caring, and extremely thorough. She will listen to you and not rush you through your appointment. I would recommend her whole heartedly!

Very nice visit we discussed my exrays and my upcoming procedure it was very good visit thank you very much Have a great day

Professional and knowledgeable

There the Best the whole Team

I’m really Soar this time ,But I’m confident that it will get bette

The procedures were painful (I opted for local) but they were well worth the pain. My legs feel lighter than ever and I can climb stairs easier.

DR HO IS THE BEST... IN HIS FIELD 100% AND HES STAFF ANDALL NURSES ANS ANTESIOLIGIST ARE GREAT.THANKS FOR HELPING ME!!!!

Great doctor

VALERIE IS ALWAYS SO CARING!!!

Dr.Puranik is a very good dr he do his job very well

Dr. Shahbandar is prompt and did an excellent job on the past procedures. I Would highly recommend trying these minimally invasive procedures first as an alternative to invasive surgery.

She listens and asks me questions, she gets down to the root of my pain issues then comes up with a solution.

She is very informative and answers all questions that you have. She takes her time getting to know you and your issues. I can't wait to see her again.

Val is thorough and friendly

Chelsea was amazing today. She cares, is fair and she listens. I couldn't ask for better service.

A very good outlook with her and her opinions

I would recommend going there to anybody. They are the best nicest people they don’t explain everything to you. It’s clean. I understand two breaks it down for me and I understand it. It’s the best.

Always positive, listens, and answers all my questions. Good experience.

Dr. Puranik has a wonderful bed side matter. Always listens to his patient

Dr. Puranik is terrific. He wants to help his patients have a better quality of life. I have been a patient of Dr. Puranik for a while. He genuinely cares. He also has a great staff. The surgical staff are really amazing. I tend to be very nervous and they explain everything and reassure me every time.

Trust, honesty, and a Good heart posture are very important to me and these are the traits Dr. Shahbandar holds!! I put my trust in him. He makes me feel very comfortable with my treatments and he has a great treat that works with him!! I highly recommend him for pain management and procedures!!

Dr. Ho and staff are amazing! They put you at ease before and after the procedure. Nothing but accolades!

Valerie is very thorough and takes time to make sure my pain is managed well

Very professional and caring.

excellent as always Dr. is top notch

Caring professional

Hanifa is wonderful! Even with all the changes, Dr Shabby runs a tight ship! ☺️

NP Julie Stain is a wonderful professional pain control expert which I highly recommend to future or prospective patients. She is very knowledgeable and know to listen to your concerns and then she’ll give the best advice and treatment.

Have trouble with returning calls about treatments

Excellent Service

It is wonderful to have someone who actually cares and does their best for you!

Angie and the rest of the team were great! All helped me feel comfortable and showed they cared. She was able to get me in for my ablations in a very reasonable, short amount of time. A big thank you to her and all the staff!

Easy to talk to and explain so you can understand.

Great doctor!

Christy was very helpful and knowledgeable. Would recommend to friends and family.

This visit provided a typical professional, use of my time. Ms. Stein shows herself as very capable AND RESPECTFUL of me as a patient.

Wonderful Wonderful Medicial provider .Always concerned about patients. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Me gusta la amibilidad que atienden a l@s pacientes y Chelsea ó el doctor te explican con detalle tu condiciònes y cualquier pregunta ó duda que uno tengas. Me sorprendio mucho el Dr. Simón explicó que el medicamento con la condición que yo tengo estaba agravando más. Tantos años que me estube atendiéndome con otro Dr. y nunca me explicò que tan grave era. Lo recomiendo 100%

I’ve been Dr Shahbandar’s patient long before Pain Centers became the business model. He’s an excellent doctor. I trust his expertise 100%.

Very informative regarding my options with managing my back pain

Dr Ho is extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

NP Stein is very good at any question that I ask her. I have no complaints.

NP Julie Stein

U all where very nice- and u a tell that u care about your patients you take care of - thank you!

Good vibes

Exceptional customer care service

Worst visit i had from her i was treated rude , she barely let me speak tried saying I have nothing wrong with my back and I clearly do. I been in pain management since 2022 she made it a horrible experience, and said there are plenty of 41 year old women walking around fine. Like she isn't in my body she dont know the pain I have . It took me twenty years to actually go to a pain management clinic to do something about my back. She Kicked me off my medication for no reason.Blocks me out of the portal account. I'll never go back and I know some people that have worse conditions then me, even left pain management because of this nurse practitioner. I used to like her when I first met her, but after the way she treated me Is the reason I left the clinic I think she needs to get her license Reevaluated, this place is supposed to help people, and all she did was treat me like I was trash and basically Didn't even help me at all. She could easily did a procedure for my neck but no , she claims I have nothing wrong with me. I hope she don't run all your patience out . She's rude and condescending. She must have got her license through McDonald's Because that's not how you treat somebody.

Very kind Dr. Explain everything to me so I understand. He is awesome took away my pain. No complaints.

I receive personalized care, compassion, and respect from Angie. I highly recommend her

I was really nervous, but they took very good care of me.

Quick and to the point

Wonderful doctor Answers any questions you have

Very professional

Pleasant experience

Excellent

I always have a great experience there. Staff is the best from I walk in and I’m in my room waiting for my doctor and I walk out that door. There is nothing I can complain about. Thank you all for everything.

I was getting a hip injection and was prepared for the worst Dr Puranik explained everything he was doing and was very gentle. Was a great experience.

Very fast and painless..even good at Tick removal..lol..thank god he saw it! Lol

He's the best doctor I know,,

I appreciate Dr. Ho listened to my concerns then thoroughly explained everything to me. I would definitely come back to him in the future.

Very professional explains things well I would highly recommend.. Staff is outstanding and very caring.

Valerie listens and helps you. Very pleased going ther

Julie is very patient and listens when I have any issues. I definitely recommend Julie to anyone looking for pain control.

Always very nice and asks if I have questions.

I trust Dr. Ho , He is patience and kind. He listens to my concerns.

Will never go anywhere else! All of the staff is top notch, and takes great care of me!

Angie Zelinski she's the very best.

We were early for our appointment. We got in right away and Chelsea Ethan saw us before our appointment time. It was awesome. I would recommend this place to everyone I know.

I like the people there but it takes way too long to get appointments there

I wish I could give more stars to this astablishment they actually care for you and they stick to ur health plan that they make for you and Dr shabandar is the best hes not like other Dr's he is down to earth been going to him since 2023 and I wouldn't change it for the world they deserve like 2million stars in my opinion

Angie is great to work with towards maximum pain relief!

I've had many procedures done and have been very pleased with results Everyone is so kind and helpful. I came here many years ago and didn't like the Dr I had then whose not here now. I returned and can say I recommend it. Only issue sometimes is the long wait times but understand it happens sometimes. I will continue coming here because my quality of life has improved and am treated respectfully.

I've been going here for sometime and Dr Simon Ho is a great Dr if you have disc issues I met him when I moved here from chgo and he's helped me stay away from back surgery ty so much

Don't waste your time going here!!

WASTE OF TIME AND

She was quick, courteous, and very kind. She understood my health concerns and answered all of my questions with compassion and care.

After my first procedure my leg already feels better. Can’t wait to see what it’s like when it’s all done!

Good listeners try really hard to figure everything out to help you as a team

Valerie is always caring, helpful and always listens to how you feel and your needs! Thank you

Dr. Shabanar was very informative, such a pleasure to be treated by him and I want him to be my permanent doctor

Hanifa was very knowledgeable & gave the information I needed to make a decision.

Hopefully this gives me some relief of pain

Valerie gave me the time and listened to me and addressed my issues. The Pain Center has always been helpful and kind. This is a great place to get help if you are in pain. I am grateful for this place

Selena takes time to explain what she's doing for you . She listens to what you have to say & explains it in terms a lay person can understand. She is to be commended for her professionalism.

Ms Cline listened to my concerns and took the appropriate steps to help me. What more could I ask for.

Courteous, knowledgeable, precise.

Very professional and thorough, made me feel very comfortable.

Great

I always need cortisone shots in my back and hips. I don't get sedation, and the Dr. Tells me what is about to happen. I've been seeing them for years

From the first phone call from the clinic they accused me of a drug addict when I was referred by a Dr i reluctantly showed for the appointment. The nurse practitioner started to say that everything my doctor diagnosed mind. You nurse practitioner, doctor she debunked and said nothing was there no discolorations, no, nothing still no apology for drug addiction, accusing to my opinion. Doctor perank's office needs to be closed down.My boyfriend went years ago and he put him through drug withdrawals, because he went from the balco clinic to the Laporte clinic and didn't even put him on a reduced narcotic, just shut him off completely.So tell me how good your doctor's office is

The staff did an excellent job as always ❤️

She was very professional. Great personality and very understanding. I would recommend her for someone in need of a Pain Specialist Phasician.

She’s the best around

Moving across the country is hard. I feel seen and heard by Dr. thank you!

She really seems to care about the patients!!

Valerie is a good listener. She always asks about my pain level and ways to keep it under control with medicine and exercise that I am able to do.

Chelsea is a very caring person. So understanding and listens to every word. I’m grateful that I have her as my nurse practitioner

Wonderful people

This was my first appt with this NP (I usually see another NP) and, as expected, she was very professional and thorough. The staff is efficient and friendly.

She was kind and listens to what I had to say.

Very professional explaining everything

Valerie was very thorough in explaining treatment and procedures to me. She was knowledgeable to all of my questions and concerns and I felt very comfortable talking with her.

Great environment nice nurses Dr. Tarek a very good Dr.

Was the worst time of my life i thought that doctors were to help you not just look the other way. This lady was my doctor for many years before she started there she feed me all these pills like they were nothing. Now they refuse to help me. If this is not a place i would tell anyone to go to.

She was very informative and listen and addressed my concerns, was professional and polite

Despite the note to refill my pain meds at a quantity to hold me over til the appt scheduled, it was never sent to my pharmacy. Therefore O had to enduren3 days with only Aleve to help me. I lost much beneficial sleep those 3 nights and could barely move dou to renewed fibromyalgia pain setting in unhindered. Still, a day after my appt I am still waiting for my meds. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.

I had a good feeling leaving this my first appointment. Thank you

Very nice well informed

Dr Shahbandar is very good at what he does. He listens to you and finds a way to help you. And if that doesn't work then he tries other ways. He's the best pain doctor that I have found.

Everyone is great Thank you!!

I always have an excellent experience. I would recommend to my friends and family.

Angie Zielinski, NP is an intelligent and caring person who always has my health and pain a priority.

Dr Cha is one of the best in his field. he’s been my doctor for years and has performed several surgeries on me. I have never been more comfortable going into an operating room than I have knowing Dr Cha would be in the room.

Always very attentive!

Staff was great

Very nice lady

Thank you Val

Julie Stein has a great personality. She has helped me tremendously with my pain.

Chelsea is very nice. And she explained everything so I could understand.

Dr. Puranik was kind and described exactly why I had to do one side of my back twice. Thankful for a Dr. to make sure you know what they're going to be doing to you.

The dr was hateful and treated me like a drug addict. Im not addicted to the pain medicine and I need it for my rheumatoid arthritis.

Julie Stein's is a wonderful doctor she helps me with all my pain due to my diabetes and my nerves I don't know what I would do without her she's a wonderful person inside and out I am so blessed to have her as my doctor

I'm doing better and my pain is under control with only two pills a day I'm happy

Listened to my concerns and was familiar with my various issues. We discussed effectiveness of medicines.

Good people service

This place has come a long ways sence I started treatment ,call backs & checkups ar the goods!

.

Kicked out practice and been with practice for 15yrs and when Angie became my new practitioner care started going downhill because she had an issue with me living out of town. Never late, or missed appointments so still confused

Her calm demeanor made me felt heard

Julie Stein is very kind and very thoughtful she’s the best

Great people there

My visit was quick and professional the way I like it

Very kind and smart. She listened

My follow up was really great. She was very concerned about my needs. I was feeling the atmosphere was wonderful. It was very cold outside. Once she went over it off everything with me. She said that if I had any type of a problem to make sure I get back with you guys as soon as possible and it’s no problem about reaching out I mean, I had a very, very nice experience there with my vein specialist she was tremendous. She was great grandma. My appointment went very well. It was a very cold morning. Everyone in the office was so pleasant which they always are my vein specialist. She was very wonderful. She went over everything step-by-step with me to make sure I had no problems to make sure that I felt great when I came in to make sure I felt great once I walked out. I had a very great greatest experience like I always do, but she was she’s gonna step beyond she made to ease my mind and any pain that that I had she was ready to address it right away very kind and very very understanding and I thank her and I think you guys also stay blessed.

Christy Kersey, NP was p professional and compassionate very detailed in her approach to help my condition.

Julie is the best!!! staff is wonderful I can’t say enough about everybody love the place

Very Understanding and Respectful

Very Understanding and Repectable

Awesome

Valerie really sits and listens to my concerns and provides great feedback and steps we should take in the future.

As always nurse practitioner Katina was great. She listens and asks questions to make sure you understand the situation. In my opinion you would not go wrong consulting her or this facility. The staff are also great while being helpful.

Provider answered all my questions And was courteous

I won’t be back. For so many reasons. If Dr shah was still taking patients, i would’ve never experienced what I did, I would’ve stayed.

He's the best!

She's very attentive and nice. She also seems to really care. It was only my first visit but I'd recommend her to anyone needing to see a pain management specialist.

I have great experiences at Centers for Pain! My Nurse Practitioner, Valerie Cline, treats me with respect, compassion and really listens to me. The staff are great and I have been going there since 2018. I am very satisfied with the care and treatments I have received thank you

Miss Julie is awesome. She listens to me. Doesn't make me feel rushed or judged. She shows me that she takes my concerns and pain seriously. She is always willing to find a treatment plan that works for me. She doesn't just dismiss you.

I hadn’t seen the doctor for 4 months but when I reached out it was as easy and they treated me like a patient that never missed. My first time with Valerie and she was wonderful and made the visit great glad I found her

There are no reviews at this time, we only spent a few minutes in her office, there are test to be taken,X-rays and such

Very caring and attentive

Valerie is very caring. I feel good about the care I am getting.

Excellent

Great

Great

Even though I screwed. The Dr helped me and put me back on track. I would recommend all of the Drs in the office

Dr Puranik has been very instrumental and helping with my pinched nerve in my neck. The ablations are working wonderfully.

She takes time to explain to you about what you have done

Everyone at the pain clinic is very nice. I was in and out in a timely manner..

Valerie was very helpful in leading me to a better future with my pain issues.

No problems, she was very helpful

Me and my wife has 2 dogs so of course they are going to climb on us, but prior to my wife's appointment she showed and put on clean clothes and as we were leaving are dogs jumped on us as they always do. And when we got there Dr. Ho refused to do the procedure on my wife because he said she smelt like dogs. Anyone who has dogs are going to smell like dogs. To say it was unprofessional is an understatement. So needless to say, we'll be finding a more professional pain management Dr. So if you own pets make sure you don't smell like them.

Very sincere and helpful.

Excellent

Valerie was very pleasant and very helpful. She went over my medications and she listened to my pain issues.

Excellent and highly professional

Nice

Nice

Sympathetic and helpful.

I’ve been going to Centers for Pain for years now and I’ve always had friendly and professional service. Currently I see Valerie Cline and I would absolutely recommend her. I also love the front staff!

I was treated quickly and with respect. She was polite very thorough and answered my questions. Ms. Cline went over the test results and directed me to the night doctor for what I needed next.

Miss Cline seem to me she is understanding and she doesn't push u into other treatment. I only seen her once so we will see

He listened and took action.

Julie Stein is very professional and is concerned with my problem. She gave me exercises to do at home to help with the pain in my calves

It was good. My knee feels better. He iust did the 2nd one. I hope I get the same results.

Julie Stein is awsome ever since I started coming to her she has helped me make great improvements to my everyday life. With her help I have been able to get better mobility. I just want to thank yall

Dr. Julie oversees my treatment at CPC. She makes sure that my concerns are addressed.

Nice, caring and great individual and very quick it taken care of you.

Definitely recommend

I'm disappointed in the painful night to do the fact that she promised me medication and didn't give it to me and then made excuses of why she wasn't going to do it and so that makes me really disappointed in it.

Valerie Cline has been truly great. I believe she genuinely cares about her patients. Thank you.

She listens to you and takes the time to explain things to you. She will look at all options that could benefit you.

Everybody’s so nice & Julie is a great doctor

Had an appointment with Dr.Waarith for the first time and had a good experience. She talk to you in lamens terms and she uses diagrams to explain your test results and I appreciate that.

I just can say he has really tried to find a way for me to at least get some comfort and that’s better than what I was hoping for. Thank you Doctor

Very proffessional

As always Chelsea is very competent, and thorough.

Selena is awesome! Very down-to-earth and relatable. Highly recommend

Dr puranik and the entire staff of CPC is always so friendly! I was very nervous about my procedure and each and everyone put my mind at ease and took great care of me!

Very helpful and explains everything to you in an understandable way

She was very helpful

Very nice. No waiting. Staff professional

I’ve had multiple procedures because of the severity of my spinal problems. Today’s visit was with the care provider Katina. As always she was attentive to my needs., She was caring and pleasant. I most definitely recommend this facility and this caregiver.

I just became a patient.. So so far I I'm getting there and it's getting better with my treatments

Very professional and made the experience as worry free as possible

Fantabulous

I love her

The support staff are wonderful! Give them a raise! Nurse Cline is very understanding. She listens and practices with care!

Good service great Dr.

Though we got a late start , the procedure was not rushed and the end result was spectacular

Listens and makes a complicated painful experience much easier to endure.

Good

First time meeting. Very knowledgeable with cervical, thoracic and lumbar pain issues. Ideas of procedures to help. Has an empathic personality.

She is patient with me and makes sure she covers all points of medical points

The office staff get you checked in really fast. The visit goes really fast.

Very nice and understandin good

Everything went fine for my visit All employees are friendly and helpful.

I definitely feel like my concerns were addressed and the staff are friendly and efficient

Very. Delightful and informative

I had vein ablation on my leg with only local anesthesia and they had me laughing through the pain. So I guess my experience was great. Great staff, good people. And thank y'all for being there.

Dr. Chelsea is a wonderful and caring soul who has helped me tremendously. She listens to everything I need to say and always gives her full attention.

Everyone at the office is polite. Angie is very attentive and explains things well. If you need good care I would recommend this office.

Julie Is very professional, she listens to her patients and discusses different solutions for pain control. When you’re in for an office visit you know that your health concerns are being addressed. Maintains good contact with your general physicians and follows up after having procedures or other health concerns. Patrick Lunsford

I have a very high tolerance to opiates over the last 40 years. I love Dr. SHAHBANDAR he knows my history included my back surgeries, head on car accident all my other surgeries and work injuries. Been through it all with doc even tried the Neuro stimulator. But I also have Multiple Sclerosis for 27 years very painful in its own right. I had to get the stimulator removed because of this. We tried ALLkinds of opioid medicine and settled on 30 mg ir Oxycodone. Yes a high does but it does not effect me like others with my high tolerance. Then I say Katina Varner and it was fine. Now I see this Hanifa and she was oh oh oh no no no that is way too high a does. So she cut me 30 pills 1 a day. This has been the most painful month I have had in years. 4 am this morning I woke up hurting bad but hav to save them because it gets worse after a hard day. So I eat a VALIUM not made for pain but but but. She did not at all cared what I had to say she cut my meds and walked out. If I was to see Katina all would be great. I am 67 and would love to live somewhat pain free now but with Hanifa doesn't look like it. Why why why was it ok with the actual PAIN DOCTOR that put me on these meds and NP Katina but now with Hanifa I am in pain again. What is wrong with this picture. They are there and have been to help my pai until now. ALL MY DOCTORS know ALLmy medicine I take I hide nothing. So if yo want your pain meds cut down because Hanifa feels you're taking too much without consulting with the ORIGINAL DOCTOR SHAHBANDAR that put me on this good luck to her. She looked at me and said oh ABSOLUTELY NO ONE IS GOING TO GIVE YOU THIS MUCH. Well that is why I have been coming to Dr. SHAHBANDAR For almost 10 years. By far the worst I have felt pain wise in years.

Good

Ms. Waarith was very concerned about my husband's issues. She addressed the issues and gave us alternatives that would take care of the issues. She was very prompt on consulting with his other doctors. He even received a phone call that she had consulted with the other doctors. She was very compassionate about his pain issues. We will definitely come back and see her again.

She doesn't manage your pain, she just makes appointments for the real Doctors to do there job. Dr. Ho is great though.

Good

Angie is always thorough with my history, managing suggested treatments, time frames & my overall health ! A real sweetheart !

She is a very patient person she listens to everything you have to say & trys to help you get rid of the problem

I'm shouting to everyone, Christy Kersey, NP and her Team is the Best. I felt as if everyone has known me for years. I have to say that they have everything in order, this team is not to be messed with. They actually seem as if they're family because how in sync with each other.

Julie is very understanding and she cares about her patients. She communicates with you on your situation and so helpful when comes to making a decision on what your next step on what needs to be done.

Good

Wonderful care, excellent service

I have never had a bad experience With any injection......the team Dr.Ho has is a great team. They all work together for the patients comfort.

Pleasant. Thorough. Easy to talk with & willing to spend the time to answer questions.

She’s very nice and takes care of the issues you have

Everyone is caring and ready to help

This is the first time meeting Valerie she was very nice and she answered all of my questions and concerns and the staff was very nice

I was incredibly impressed by the entire experience, NP Selena Velasco took the time to listen to all my concerns and explained my treatment plan in a way I could easily understand, which made me feel very at ease throughout the process. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this clinic to anyone looking for a provider who is both thorough and compassionate

Selena showed me the details of my scans and what she planned to do to correct what the scans showed. She answered all of my questions and really listened to what I had to say.

She's a good nurse practitioner , she listens and give you goods advice

Excellent, caring staff This facility is awesome. Thank you for all of your amazing professionalism

I have the deepest respect for Miss Zielinski. Any interactions I've had with her have been positive. I feel listened to and she readily answers any questions I have. In my experience, including today, she is top tier.

She is the best…

I met Dr Ho for the first time a few minutes before my procedure. His friendliness was refreshing as we talked about how I could have got the problem. When he said he would “Try” to fix me and I told him I realize that’s all he could do because he wasn’t GOD! It’s a wait and see time for me now.

I was extremely comfortable with my doctor with his nurses the anesthesiologist everyone was informative knowledgeable made things very clear and understandable. I was very happy with all of the services that I was received, and I am starting to feel much better thanks to everyone for what you do may God continue to bless each and everyone of you

This was my 1st time here, and I had a great experience. The office staff were friendly and helpful. The nurse was very thorough and friendly. Ms. Cline was very kind and understanding. She took the time to get a detailed history and explained what steps we would take first. I felt like I was listened to and that my concerns were heard. I look forward to seeing Ms. Cline again for my next appointment.

Julie is the best! She always takes the time to listen and make you feel heard.

Everything went well. I have a new date for my cortisone shots. Im very appreciated

CChristy Kersey is one of the best; she takes her time, explains everything, and gives you a chance to ask questions. She goes above and beyond. We had a positive experience, not so much with the staff at the front desk, but my rating goes to Christy.

Dr. SHAHBANDAR is excellent at what he does. I highly recommend him for pain Dr. he treats both myself and my husband and we both get great relief and he is very easy to talk to also.

Caring, explains thi is in layman terms.

.

Good

Everyone involved took great care of me.

She is very personable when I go into her office and see her about procedures

Selena is very well prepared to provide the most relevant information and options for care. Her recommendations are well founded in knowledge and experience, practical, and personalized.

Chelsea is very personable, and knowledgeable

Very nice and friendly, introduced himself, Made sure I understood what was going on, Procedure was fast , and he talked to me telling me what was happening through it all.

Very professional great staff

Christy is the ultimate Professional she and her staff are exceptional. I just lost my Wife and struggling big time and she is so kind and understanding along with being a superb technician and talked me through the whole process is definitely a top notch person.

Staff made me comfortable as I waited in the room with pillows as I needed to lay on my side due to back pain. Katina was pleasant and professional.

Answered all my questions

Great service

Supposed to treat pain but she did nothing. I’m sick of this “opioid-phobia” these people have. I do not recommend if you want effective pain management. It’s all about money here.

She is great

Katina is the best!

Chelsea is caring and competent. A+

I had a great experience Chelsea today, she listened to my concerns and answered all my questions concerning my upcoming medical procedure. I felt a lot better about it after leaving the appointment. Thank you, Chelsea.

Christy Kersey is the Best. I love her positive energy, empathy and personality. She truly do care an you can't say that often. It felt as if Christy was a mind reader because she know exactly what I am dealing with and pin point it when no one else could have.

Dr Ho did a great job. My pain is gone

You feel like an insurance number not a person. She's supposed to manage pain but doesn't.

Julie did a fine job. I just needed her to approve an ablation. An appointment was made for today. Apparently my insurance denied the ablation and my appointment was cancelled. I would've appreciated it if anybody told me it was cancelled after i scheduled a day off work and so did my ride. This is NOT the first time this has happened. I should be credited for my time as I would have been charged if I didn't show for an appointment.

Very nice and listen to what I had to say

Happy with appointment. No waiting all my questions were answered and explained. Extremely satisfied.

Chelsea was very professional. She also listened and was very attentive. She also made sure that all necessary doctors were notified. She was great.

Dr. Ho is friendly and takes the time to listen to you. I was quite anxious and he calmed me down through the procedure.

Dr.Ho was very polite and efficient, my anesthesia experience was very painful

I am very happy with Dr. Waarith. She is very thoughtful and concise. My experience at this office is more pleasant because I have not had to wait long to get in to see her. She is a TCOB type doctor and I appreciate that!

Rude, condescending and never asked for back story of what I’ve been through and diagnosed. This was the FIRST time meeting him. It wasn’t upset during appt about the medications being lowered, I was upset with his method of removing my medicine so quickly which is AGAINST CDC guidelines. Causing me unnecessary suffering with withdrawal at how quickly removing medicines. No matter what I asked or said, he was adamant on doing it his timeline. Even after telling him I’m the SOLE caregiver (lives with mom) for my mother who JUST had DOUBLE MASTECTOMY and now doing chemo. I have to drive her to Chicago for ask Dr appts and chemo while being rapidly taken off medications. He told me, “We aren’t talking about your mother, it’s about you.” “I don’t care about this.” What a dr. & totally concerned about speaking out and retribution like the other np did to me from another office which is why I went to different one. Kept telling me there are other Drs I can go to and I don’t have to stay there. That was repeated at least 4xs.

It was a great first appointment. Chelsea was very informative she listened to my concerns and aches and pains. The staff was very friendly and helpful

Excellent care

Excellent care staff is very courteous

Yesterday Dr. R Puranik performed a Bil TXTF L4-5. I could barely walk into CPC, walking with a cane in major pain. When I went home I fell asleep until 10:10 PM. When I woke up. I could walk with out my cane! I baked bread, washed dishes, and a few other household duties that I haven't been able to do for months. Dr Puranik and his staff are wonderful!

It was great

She explain what was going on with my legs and explain what type of surgery she will be performing to me she really cares about her patients

Chelsea Dalton NP has helped me tremendously. She is a wonderful person who cares about her patients.

Great doctor And nurses

Christy is very nice and cares about her patients! I was upset with the pain management side to all of this but recently things have changed for the better.

Best dr in NWI!

Love my dr. He is the best in NWI!

Christy was very sweet and explained everything to me,

Selena was awesome! Excellent explanation of process. She displayed a wonderful demeanor and was extremely down to earth and relatable. The office staff was exceptional. Wonderful personalities!

She is a nice and sweet NP I ever had and she is very caring for all her patients

Selena was awesome!

Very warm and genuine
