I have always had an active lifestyle. At age 42, I developed pain in the lumbar & sacrum regions…read more The pain worsened over the next year to where my lifestyle changed. I could no longer exercise or perform household tasks. I went to an ortho surgeon, who prescribed 18 PT sessions to strengthen my back/abdomen. The PT released me from therapy because I did not have a lack of strength in my back/abdomen and that my pain must come from elsewhere. So, I went to see a chiropractor and after adjustments, he told me a story. His wife had suffered from chronic back pain. As a doctor himself, he had done research and came across a pain management doctor in the area. He sent his wife to that doctor and after several treatments, she was pain free and had remained pain free to that date. That is how I came to meet Dr. Munir. I made an appointment at Southwest Ohio Pain Institute (SWOPI) and by this time, I was waking up around 3:00 AM in such pain that I could not fall back asleep. I had sleep deprivation and passed out during my first appointment. His staff was excellent and I felt like I was in the right place. This doctor was going to help me. Dr. Munir completed a physical exam and asked questions to understand what triggers the onset of my pain. After a series of evaluations, he informed me that he did not believe it was an issue with my spine, but rather an issue with muscle spasms pulling at my spine, resulting in both muscle & structural pain. Dr. Munir outlined a program, which included steroid shots, a low dose muscle relaxer and a series of stretches to be performed multiple times a day that would target underlying muscles not often reached through traditional stretching. After a few days of following his program, I experienced my first good night of sleep in close to a year. After about a month, I was experiencing about 50% relief, but I wanted to shoot for the stars and get back to my active lifestyle. Dr. Munir suggested adding red light therapy to my program. His studies had shown that when used in conjunction with steroid injections, the red light therapy (performed twice a week for 8 weeks) would add additional pain relief. And he was right, it did. Not 100%, but by that point my pain relief was about 85%. It was well worth the time and the investment. Again, not one to give up or settle for anything less than 100%, I tasked him with finding that additional 15% of pain relief that would allow me to sleep each and every night, perform household tasks and get back to exercising. Dr. Munir suggested radio frequency ablation (RFA) and thus we started on the evaluation process to determine where most of the pain stemmed from. We decided to treat my left side first - it was a rather simple 20 minute procedure, local anesthesia, performed in the office. I walked out and soon realized that my pain was gone. It was 100% gone on my left side with about a 95% improvement on my right side as well! I could immediately tell the difference in muscle tightness from my left side to my right side. I came back in a month to see Dr. Munir for treatment on my right side. By then my life had changed dramatically. I had been going to the gym, I had started running again and lifting weights. I was sleeping through the night - every night - and feeling rested in the morning. My physical state had improved and so had my emotional state. I was ecstatic with the results! I couldn't believe that I'd spent a year seeing different doctors (by the way, I also saw a neurologist, a rheumatologist and got a second opinion with another orthopedic surgeon) and Dr. Munir was only 5-minutes from my house. It has been several months now and I am 100% pain free. I am also free to pursue the things in life that bring me joy. Thank you, Dr. Munir, for taking the time to ask me thorough questions and for spending the time to properly evaluate my physical issues and for developing a treatment program that was unique to me. Thank you for sticking with me and for not brushing me off because there wasn't a glaringly obvious reason for the pain.

Take some advice and find another pain management office. Today I was told that a 3 hour wait time was normal for a specialist. No Dawn.... 3 hours is not normal. Dawn Gets the award for being the rudest of them all. As for his nurse Hannah, do NOT depend on her or anyone in that office to return calls in a respectable timeframe or submit requests to insurance for treatment. She is so over worked she doesn't know which way is up. I've never been treated so disrespectful by a Drs team than I have with this group. It amazes me how they can continue to treat people the way they do without any recourse. Most unprofessional group I've ever encountered. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time with these clowns. Find a group that is caring and respectful to their patients. One that acts like they give a damn about their patients. I promise you will not find that at this office. It's really a shame because he really is a good dr. He's letting his staff ruin his reputation! They actually deserve zero stars. 1 is too good.

I waited 55 minutes in the waiting room (with an infomercial for yoga playing again and again and again) that 55 mins doesn't include the 15 mins i was early. i get called in, update the assistant and wait another 36 minutes for the dr to come in. i'm pacing and playing candy crush when he comes in. he asks how it's going and i say just waiting. dr asked questions that i already answered at my first appt and on the paperwork that i HAD to have before my first appt. the ladies at the front desk were discussing 'no shows' when i came in, so there were less patients than expected and i wasted a good portion of my day because?? they double or triple booked? or maybe they had a cupcake snow ceremony during the time i was waiting. i don't know. i'm not pleased with the wait times. if i hadn't paid my copay i would have walked out. this is a very crappy way to run your office. next appt i'm turning off the lights and taking a nap. boo.

DOC Pain Management - 1010 Woodman Dr, Dayton, OH 45432: NEW PATIENT: 09/10/2025; DOC Pain Management\Sabrina L. Blankenship (NP) is significantly misleading. My treatment plan for chronic lower back pain, which lasted 7 months, consists of, firstly, various pain medications, and secondly, comprehensive pain injections. It is crucial to keep in mind this phrase: "Professional service, not a guaranteed result"; in other words, it represents an "obligation of means" rather than an "obligation of result". This specific assertion: The comprehensive care and satisfaction of patients is fundamental to the Dayton Outpatient Center; however, this is not an accurate statement. As (NP) stated afterward\20APR2026: I apologize that the treatment did not work for you; it may be effective for some but not for others. Her; (NP) main emphasis was on marketing products, while she concurrently failed to identify effective methods for managing my chronic back pain. DOC Pain Management exhibits no remorse for the inadequate services they did not deliver. I endured a considerable amount of lost time, distress, pain, suffering, and expenses amounting to $1,785.00. As noted, these past 7 months have been a very costly lesson. If chronic pain is affecting your daily life, PLEASE-PLEASE, I do not recommend DOC Pain Management for your chronic pain concerns and/or discomfort.
