Their follow up and concern for your well being is again excellent. One of the most impressive things I have experienced here is that they are not a chop shop, they do not say let's do surgery and go from there, The care you receive and the discussions that you have with the staff is that of Surery being the last thing on the list of things to try and help you manage your pain. If you are having lingering pain and do not want to have surgery or additional surgeries call and get an appointment with Carolina Pain and Spine and see if there is something they can do to help you in your everyday life.

This practice started out great, but recently hired a new doctor. I've been on 24 mg of tizanidine…read moredaily for over six years, started by my GP. Dr. Weber couldn't make my appointment, so I saw the new physician, Dr. Jeremy Naber, who stated he would renew my tizanidine. When I picked up the prescription, it had been changed to 4 mg at bedtime -- a 20 mg per day reduction with no taper. A cut that steep is known to cause withdrawal effects including rebound hypertension, tachycardia, disturbed sleep, and GI problems, and I experienced all of them. My pharmacist was concerned enough to contact me and suggested a second opinion. After I relayed all this to Dr. Naber's nurse, he never called me himself; a revised prescription for 16 mg per day came through the nurse. Per the FDA prescribing information (available on the NIH DailyMed site), patients on 20-28 mg daily for 9 weeks or more should have the dose decreased slowly, 2 to 4 mg per day. 24 minus 16 is an 8 mg single-step cut -- still above the guideline, and still with no titration schedule offered. I terminated my relationship with Midtown and requested my records.

Dr. Wunnava is rude, disrespectful, does not actually LISTEN to the patient, and treats his…read morepatients like addicts. He did everything in his power to try the most outlandish, idiotic treatments possible. Buprenorphine patches that gave me bowel impactions that sent me to the ER four times in 6 weeks. I listened to him on the peer to peer call with my insurance company to get authorization for Movantik.....a drunken sailor could have done a better appeal. It was so bad I had to dk MY OWN appeal to get Movantic approved. The impactions were so bad i nearly perforated my bowel. Claimed it "wasnt his problem" . Ever heard of whole body lidocaine infusions? Yeah, he likes those. Even set my IV without gloves before i even caught it. (I look away, fear of needles) then he lied about it when confronted, i asked him to provide the used pair of gloves, i was first in that room and the trashcan only had the alcohol swab and the needle used to set the IV. No used gloves to be found. That is pure negligence. It became evident that opiates were needed as we progressed, but he refused. I was on a benzo at the time, said it was "against the law" to co-prescribe (it isnt. Just calls for more careful observation). I offered to drop the benzos, no dice. But I tell you, i was offered that 450$ cash Ketamine infusion at least three to four times every weekly visit. I was already on Spravato (nasal Esketamine) at the time, but he still recommended twice weekly ketamine infusions , and of course it being "experimental therapy " was not covered by insurance, so this Dr. Wannabe wanted me to pay 900$ a WEEK for ketamine. We tried low dose naltrexone. I literally had to make it myself. I had to dissolve the tablets in distilled water, and basically act as my own compounding pharmacy. I can not stress enough what a terrible place this is. 90% of the staff believe they can walk on water and that their own feces smells of lilac and rose hips. Dr. Wannuva also accused me of testing positive for alcohol use. I literally can't drink alcohol due to my heart condition, i run a higher risk of having a third Sudden Cardiac Death (ive had two) . He played reindeer games while I suffered from Ankylosing Spondylitis, Fibromyalgia (which he said was in my head), three ruptured/bulging discs in my lower lumbar, severe SI joint pain, a partially torn rotator cuff injury, psoriatic arthritis, and knees that required 5k worth of custom made braces so I could walk. I begged. I pleaded. I broke down into tears nearly every visit, begging for help. The last straw was the "virtual pain management therapy", where you sat in a room wearing a meta quest 2 and watched an hour of self help videos. I wasted six months on this Dr.Wannabe, and I truly beg you to look elsewhere. This man and his "clinic" are a joke. If you're looking for pain management, it isnt at this place. If you want to be ridiculed, treated like an idiot, given useless and incompetent treatment (for gods sake the man set my IV with no gloves for a lidocaine infusion!) then don't say you weren't warned when he pushes ketamine and Esketamine (spravato) because its all about the money. Plus his bedside manner SUCKS. And his staff, save for a few kind souls, suck just like him. Please avoid Dr. Wannuva. There are much better places out there.

I really liked the doctor, which I'm not going to Name, very knowledgeable and great personality. Where things went wrong, went in for a C7 injection to treat a bulging disc, procedure seem to go normally, however, within 24 hours, I was dealing with a Dural puncture. Horrendous headache, dizziness, ears, muffled, all which were worse when sitting or standing. I understand there are risks associated with this type of procedure; however,, when I received a phone call from WAKE spine and told them of my symptoms, they were telling me that I must have a sinus infection. This was a nurse practitioner who had just reviewed my symptoms with the doctor on call and this is what they came up with. The fact that they had no idea that classic symptoms of a CSF leak is muffled ears or ringing in the ears, excruciating positional headache, dizziness, nausea, etc baffles me! I'm now on day six and feel like I am healing finally, but I could not with a good conscience recommend this clinic.
