I need Pain Management Services and this place is horrible as far as maintaining communication and correspondence with their patients ,or at least me. It is a pain clinic and it also offers addictions services and management. My current primary doctor whom is a addiction specialist has been trying to help me get into a pain management clinic for 3 months now. It took 2 months of correspondence and I have detailed emails between me and the staff at the front desk about my exact situation ,all medical releases were signed and filled it out ,sent it in and when I called to schedule my appointment they told me that I was above their Oxycodone daily mg limit but that the pain doctor will see me, I just happen to be speaking to the clinic manager and I said I am not on Oxycodone anymore and she didn't have a clue about the medical records I had signed for my primary doctor. Apparently staff never sent for those ones. I had to explain everything all over again ,even though I wrote a detailed hand written letter that I have a copy of that they have in my chart at this new clinic. I explained what my exact situation is . She said I had to see the Addiction doctor before I could see the pain doctor which I thought was absurd after explaining in detail everything even though 2 addiction specialists, a psychologist at the addiction center I went to agreed that I need pain management and get OFF Subutex ASAP cause of how bad it made my pain worse ,horrible side effects damage its caused . At the appointment I explained everything to George Ashwin MD, about 50 different horrible crippling side effects one was withdrawal symptoms he said that I need to switch to Suboxone, increase dosage cause I didn't have enough of it in my system and do this for a month or so and then he will "believe" me only if my blood levels were satisfactory! He just would not listen. He said he would call in one week after blood levels were checked that was 6 weeks ago and I have called over 10 times and they finally called this week.

These guys are the worst, they don't care about you, only money ,and how much extra stuff they can get you to buy. They sell a lot of OTC pills, shots , infusions that don't work and only make them rich. Dr George is a complete control freak. We are patients first. Treat us with some respect. Got non of that here. No compassion or humanity. Don't go here. Awful people. Addict or not they will treat you like line from day one. Terrible place

Amazing pain clinic. I was near the point of being unable to walk and taking large doses of narcotic pain killers. The clinic took blood and sent it off for analysis. When it came back I found a key component to my pain was something no other doctor had considered or tested. I finally was able to get my pain under control after six years. I have returned to work and I am able to enjoy life. My pain is now manageable instead of debilitating. I recommend this clinic to everyone. They keep on top of communications with my wife and I. We are both very happy patients and would always recommend Valley Pain. I left another huge pain clinic to come to a wonderful place.
