She has been one of the few medical professionals to help me through my slow and difficult recovery resulting from a car accident in January.

She has been able to significantly lower my pain and tremendously aid my recovery. THANK YOU!!!

I initially was evaluated by Dr Cherrick and have been seen by his NP then Juliana Buendia PA…read more She is an amazing person! I always feel heard (which is not something you get from healthcare professionals these days) I experience chronic debilitating pain from several compression spinal fractures and she gets to know you as a person. Not a lot of people have to take opioids, and I've experienced healthcare providers, pharmacists treat you as if you're some addict. I wish all healthcare professionals had even a small amount of compassion that Juliana always shows her. The front desk area has numerous windows but it seems like 1 or maybe 2 sign you in and make appointments..it seems like workflow could use attention. The plastic windows that came from Covid times can make it difficult to hear or be heard by staff, not any fault of the staff. Privacy could be better because if it comes to billing issue etc, it seems like the entire waiting room can hear your financial situation. Billing department is great as I have had to set up payment arrangement and that discussion shouldn't be something the entire waiting room could hear. I guess the physical changes of how the front desk could be angled and off to the side would be better for privacy and confidentiality. (Like the McLean office) I hope this sounds like constructive feedback and by no means any complaint because I simply couldn't function without the amazing treatment that I've received from Juliana and the entire team! Thank you!

The front office customer service, particularly from the young woman the sits closest to the…read moreentrance, is trash. I haven't even bothered to complain about my experience, because she's loud and rude and I know her colleagues can hear her. So, they obviously do not care. In addition, I waited 45 minutes past my appointment to be seen at my recent visit. If you have the patience (or no other choice) know that the service improves once you leave the lobby. The doctors are thorough and professional.

I have been a patient of Dr. Quint for more than five years…read more The primary reasons for my visit included treatment for lower back pain, treatment and physical therapy for right shoulder pain after having had a reverse shoulder replacement, and therapy for great discomfort in my right foot and left knee. Dr. Quint employs some of the latest and most advanced treatment modalities. The quality of care has always been first--class with concern for the patient to be of the utmost importance. All of the treatment sessions have resulted in significant relief from pain and discomfort with an ever increasing ability for my body to function almost normally. The office experience has always been very positive and helpful, especially in relieving anxiety and assisting in the completion of the forms that all physicians' offices require. In addition, I have referred at least three friends to Dr. Quint for pain treatment and physical rehabilitation. All of them are very happy and satisfied with the results.

I should come back when I had them. I called that clinic to get the films sent. The office staff interrupted me to say they already had them. So they didn't try to get them at first because they didn't want to be bothered! This was my second visit with Dr. Barletta. My asking why I had some bad spinal pain met with the words, "because you're old." I am only 70. He blithely told me he's 64! The feature I most dislike in a doctor's office is laziness. This they had in spades. Go to another branch of National Spine and Pain. Don't go to this one. (Mount Vernon office on Hinson Farm Road.)

I went a few weeks ago for severe chronic back pain. He literally opened with 'Why don't you just…read moretake acetaminophen?' And obviously I wouldn't be here if that worked?? And as I was answering he repeatedly kept interrupting me, for example with that question I was about to say I wouldn't be here if it worked and he interrupted me mid sentence to ask 'why haven't you tried injections?' He didn't even let me answer either, I have answers for all the questions he asked but I couldn't even say them because he interrupted me so much. In general felt he didn't care and I had even told him I don't get nerve pain and without much examination of me prescribed some random nerve pain medication. I questioned this and he said 'If this doesn't work we will only prescribe something similar'. Complete waste of time, all I wanted was a muscle relaxer so I could have a decent night's sleep for once. If you've been to a doctor that didn't take you seriously then you know what I'm talking about.

I was referred to Dr. Ramatia Mahboobi (pronounced Mah-who-bee) by the PA at the Anderson Clinic…read morefor lower back pain. It was suggested I go through a series of shots to avoid surgery. I had had these shots over a year ago by another practitioner, she was in and out and the shots did nothing for me. When I say in and out I mean it seemed like the procedure was simply to dispense some product into my back and charge my insurance. My experience with Dr. Mahboobi was completely different. He explained to me what he was going to do and systematically with great care and precision injected the medicine in exactly to precise spot it needed to be. During the procedure he told me every step of what he was doing. I found him to be professional, caring and an exceptional physician. The time he spent with me was triple what the other doctor had spent and the results were 300% better. I suggest that if you need spinal tap procedure for back pain you seek Dr. Mahboobi's excellent care. He is an expert at what he does and really cares about his patients.

He took the time to explain any possible future procedures and gave me literature to read up on so that I would be fully informed.
