| - If my review will save one person from going to this awful place, I will be happy. This place is extremely scary and not worth the additional pain they cause! Let me start by stating that I'm pretty tough and rarely cry- I'm not a girly girl and feel that I stand up for myself and take a stand on what I feel is not right. When I visited this place, it was like I was trapped. I have RA and suffer from the extreme pain it causes in my joints. I was looking for a relief, knowing that it will never totally go away but hopefully at least lessen the pain a bit- this place only increased my pain. The doctor visited with me for maybe 5 minutes before she was sending me off to get the injections. This also included her using a tail bone model to show where they were going to inject in my neck... not quite the same thing. I felt very uncomfortable- especially when I asked what they were injecting me with, her statement was 'well it's not a steroid'... ok.... so what the hell is it? I was taken to another room where classic rock was blaring and 1950's metal style gurneys lined the room- it creeped me out. The doctor that was going to inject me, briefly talked with the lady I had gone over everything with and very vague statements like, "I'll answer that later" "maybe"... to answer his questions did not reassure me that they knew what they were doing- they also talked about me like I was a child and they were hiding something from me. I did NOT feel comfortable at all- I kept thinking "I should leave, I should leave..." but then would think that all this worry would be worth it in the end. WRONG!! They strapped my head down so I couldn't move and it was game time for the pain. I couldn't believe it... I couldn't stop crying but they didn't care. One nurse put on her iPod 's play list during the procedure which ranged from heavy metal to kid's bop songs- NOT calming whatsoever and only increased my anxiety. The doctor and other staff just talked with each other like I wasn't in the room. It would have been helpful to even state "one more injection" or something like that... nope not so much. They did numb the area, but is definitely not strong enough to help with the injections- I could not believe it was still that painful... however you can say anything because they strap your head down to the table so you can't talk because the face cradle is so tight thanks to the restraint- all you can do is moan. I did not feel good afterwards at all. They also said that the pain meds will start to work right away and would probably cure the pain I also had in my shoulder... after the injections, I still felt the pain, but when they asked if my shoulder was better and I lied and said it was fine. If I didn't do that, they would have pinned me down again and given injections there too and there is NO way I wanted to go through that again. So I got my crap and booked it out of there. I'm supposed to go back for 6 more session- NO THANKS!!! I came to get rid of the pain, not increase it. It is now 8 hours later and I still can't move my neck and I'm still in pain. PLEASE DON'T GO TO THIS AWFUL PLACE!! They lie, they're rude, they are short in describing what they're going to do, they can't explain what they exactly do, they have no bedside manners, and the DO NOT fix the pain.
