Extremely disappointing experience. I waited almost two hours past my appointment time, only to see…read morethe doctor for less than five minutes -- most of the visit was handled by a nurse practitioner. The treatment did nothing, and no real effort was made to diagnose my issue; I had to ask for X-rays and a referral myself. The billing felt shady and misleading. I was told to make a one-time $200 payment to cover future visits, but when I returned, they demanded another $160, claiming it was a "mistake." This could've easily been communicated before I came in, instead of wasting my time. Overall, the office felt disorganized, uncaring, and dishonest. I would not recommend this practice to anyone.

I didn't immediately make an appointment, but I finally went in late Jan. 2025. I went on a Thursday and upon entering I saw a waiting area with people on top of people. Having retired after 50 years in healthcare in various settings, I knew this is not a good sign. I was seen sooner than I expected, but I suspect, it was only to input me into the system. It was a pleasant meeting and the doctor actually DID something. She gave me some trigger point injections! Relief. An MRI was ordered. Totally necessary since I hadn't one in years. In response to my question regarding the crowded waiting room, I was told Thursday is "procedure day" with patients requiring anesthesia needing someone to accompany them. I scheduled my f/u appt on a Friday. And then it began. The Friday I returned the waiting room was not crowded. I was hoping to discuss the MRI results with the doctor. I was told she was not in due to a last minute emergency. Possible, but not probable. The only medical practitioner onsite was the PA and she was overstretched. She discussed options and an epidural injection was scheduled for the next Friday, since I didn't need anesthesia. She recommended a baseline EMG, since I also have diabetic neuropathy. A sound idea, so one was scheduled for today, Thursday. When I expressed my reservations about Thursday, I was told it "was a different line". Arrived today, on time, to a room packed with people. I signed in and took a seat. After waiting an hour past my appointment time, I asked at the front desk how much longer. I was told there were 4 people ahead of me! I said I was told this was a different line. She said "it is". When I asked why I wasn't told there would be such a wait, the receptionist said "you didn't ask"!!!!!!! There are many types of business models for medical offices. Some are based on respect for patients and their time. Others are based on greed. An appointment is an agreement between the patient and the provider. There will always be instances where a patient may need more time. A medical complication or a little hand holding. But this practice only cares about generating income by overbooking time slots, at the expense of their patient's time. I canceled my EMG and my epidural injection. There are too many physicians in the area to be subjected to such treatment. Unfortunately, I never got to see if their treatment would have been beneficial.

I called the billing office a couple of times and was not able to connect with them. I had to pay $75, and then $37, on top of my copay, for every visit I had with them, and I have great insurance.

I literally went for a consultation, I had no PT or injection. I literally only went to check out the place and after looking at their space I felt that it wasn't what I was looking for.

I tried to explain to them that I had insurance and was told that my consultation would be within network and my insurance company would cover everything and you think they would tell you that your visit will not be covered by the insurance company but instead they want make more money and charge me for the consultation.

I had one appointment with Dr. Castro where he mentioned the word surgery twice THEN sent me for MRI's of my shoulder....we don't even know what's wrong why would you even mention surgery? Luckily I have common sense combined with anatomy training so I knew better than to pay this any mind. He said he would call me if there was anything major (like a tear). Otherwise I could rest up and we would go over the results at my next visit. Fast forward two weeks. I Was expecting nothing abnormal since he said he would call if I had any tearing. He had two weeks to get the MRI images from the place that did my MRI and review them. I have them on a CD at home but thought "why would I need to bring them with me? This is a professional" I was very wrong. He didn't even HAVE the images on hand never mind having looked them over. He had two weeks to get them and to do his job. I was told by a nurse that Dr. Castro "doesn't need images because he can read from the report" oh, you mean a piece of paper that anyone could read? Ok. Thank you. I was then told that I "Probably maybe have a less than 50% tear in my rotator cuff-but it might just be inflammation." He "wasn't sure" The reason why he couldn't tell? Because he didn't have the images. That he had two weeks to obtain. He also explained nothing to me. When I asked him which muscle tendon had the tear he said "rotator cuff" yea buddy there's 4 different muscles in the rotator cuff. THEN he told me he thinks that I should "go on medication, do physical therapy if I want and then if that didn't work, get an injection in my shoulder in three weeks" Sigh. So. Many. Issues. With. This. 1. "Probably maybe" isn't an acceptable answer. 2. Less than 50% tear. First of all, it's degrees, not % and secondly what does that mean? Is it a 3 degree tear or is it a 49 degree tear. Distinct difference. Experts know the difference. 3. YOU HAD TWO WEEKS TO OBTAIN THE IMAGES AND YOU WASTED MY TIME. 4. I told this man repeatedly that medication, surgery, injections-anything invasive was absolutely not happening. The fact that he kept trying to push it is absurd. 5. Why wouldn't he CALL me as he PROMISED and let me know that my rotator cuff tendon may be torn. so I don't further Injure myself. So I could make appropriate steps to take care of myself. I've been walking around with a tear for 3 weeks? Are you kidding me? Just came from my new doctor (Dr. Neuman-he's wonderful and explained everything) and as I suspected, I do have a tear and guess what this is a big deal and will take time, patience and proper rehab to get better. He advised me on physical therapy and proper rehab. Oh, castros office also gave me the run around on obtaining my medical records. Dr. Castro wasted my time. I'm a massage therapist. Time is essential in the healing process. It's also essential for me to go back to work as an independent contractor. But by far my BIGGEST issue is the patients out there who don't have any formal training in anatomy that just "trust the doctor". These are the people who are being drugged up, injected and cut open unnecessarily by people like Dr. Castro. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this guy as well as educate yourself and listen to your gut. It's your body and you only get one.

When I was first referred to Dr Singh @ Painwell, I had almost lost all hope after months of…read morecrippling pain from falling down a flight of stairs at home. My fall along with prior injuries led me to having multiple herniated discs in my lumbar spine with nerve impingements, and significant arthritis in my lumbar facet joints. Despite months of physical therapy/chiropractic care/massage therapy & acupuncture, I was seeing very few results/relief. I have a very physically demanding job (grocery manager) that requires me to be on my feet for 9hrs a day along with lots of heavy lifting, and the idea of being able to continue to make a living and perform my duties was daunting. From day 1 Dr Singh was transparent, comforting, and genuinely cared about the reality of the pain I was experiencing. After reviewing my MRI results and performing multiple in office diagnostic tests, she thoroughly described my options and the course of treatment she planned to take with my consent to get me better. We decided to move forward with a lumbar epidural, then shortly after some time to recover we moved on to medial branch blocks. The relief was notable and life changing. As a recovered addict, pain management through narcotics was not something I wanted to explore and with the help of Dr Singh I didn't have to. I am so grateful for the care and compassion I received from Dr Singh and her team at Painwell. I can't speak highly enough for the impact she made on my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you are considering seeing Painwell as your care team you can rest assured you will be in great hands.
