    I've had less than satisfying experiences at numerous pain clinics over the years as I suffer from…read morea chronic, non operable condition that keeps me in constant, unrelenting pain. I'm so glad I finally found the Pain Clinic of Southern Arizona as they have truly helped me to at least partially curb my pain without subjecting me to some of the intrusions other pain clinics impose. Due to the current political atmosphere surrounding pain medications I understand the necessity of frequent appointments and month to month prescriptions (as opposed to 90 day supplies). Like all pain clinics you are randomly selected to supply a urine specimen to prove you are taking your meds (unfortunately, as opposed to selling them). The staff and professionals are always friendly and appear to genuinely care about your condition. I've never had to wait very long beyond my scheduled appointment time before being called in to the exam room. Unlike some clinics they have never pulled any of the unethical practices other clinics do such as treating my pain for a few months and then saying its time to wean off pain medication altogether while offering no alternative to management. In fact, they have frequently offered to increase the dosage of my meds without my even asking. I cannot guarantee everyone will have the same positive experience here as each patient presents their unique set of circumstances and unfortunately there are many out there seeking these meds for both abuse and profit. As for myself, all I can say is that the Pain Center of Southern Arizona has definitely changed my life for the better.

    Although Dr. Martin and the staff at the Pain Institute of Southern Arizona are kind and…read moreprofessional, I feel that the focus of my care has been more on reducing medications than on what's best for me as a patient. I've been on the same regimen for years, yet the primary concern during my visits seems to be lowering my pain medication rather than fully addressing my pain with sickle cell and overall needs. At times, it feels like office policies take priority over individualized patient care.

    If you ever have the misfortune of being assigned to this doctor, ask for another provider. He is…read morea new doctor at Pain Institute of Southern Arizona and he has a complete lack of compassion. His medical assistant Savannah is also the worst possible person you will have the displeasure to speak with. She fabricates information that is not in your record but is convenient for her excuses for not following through on her duties. They both should be in some other profession, not administering to patients who are in severe pain. Their complete lack of empathy or any trace of compassion mars this usually friendly medical group. I hope the management realizes this and ends their relationship with these providers. This doctor's credentials don't compare to the other doctors on staff. It is laughable that he is even practicing medicine at their level. i had much better luck with the nurse practitioners on staff who have more knowledge.

    I had the misfortune of seeing Dr. Elkins. This is my opinion. He is the classic example of a…read morerecent graduate that knows it all but is in fact a moron! I bailed many an engineer just like him out while I still worked as an Instrument electrician. He told me no one regardless of the cause of their pain or how long they have been on pain medicine should ever get more than 90 mme of morphine. I was referred to him by my neurologist and when he told me this I told him to absolutely not speak to my primary care doctor. His suggestion for me to continue on the dose I have been taking for over 10 years without incident was to see a psychiatrist about my addiction!!! Well he violated my confidence and spoke to my primary saying they have no business prescribing to me. I would sue him but he is a friend of my primary who I care about. Somewhere near 12 other doctors over 21 years don't agree with him. This media frenzy over narcotics has been a nightmare for anyone with a pain condition. The people getting hurt are the real pain patients not the druggies that have caused all the problems. I know this because a friends son is a junkie and has been on methadone for withdrawal for over 3 years. They are offering him increases in dose while they cut mine over 75%. My life is now a disaster with constant pain. However we are pushing back Look into don't Punish Pain. TRP
