I was in Alabama with 7 friends for our annual golf trip and hurt my lower back during round #1. It…read morewas debilitating, painful to even take a deep breath or laugh, no chance at playing golf. I googled chiropractic care in the area and found Archetype had good reviews. Booked an appointment for the next day figuring I had nothing to lose by getting treatment, I was just hoping to be able to ride in a cart and cheer on my buddies and didn't really expect to play anymore golf on the trip. I found Archetype to be a very professional health care establishment. Dr. John (Palmer) and his staff spent approximately 90+ minutes using various techniques on my back. I was still sore that evening, but seemed to be a little more comfortable. The next morning I woke up feeling really good. I was able to play 36 holes that day, carefully of course, but without pain. The following day I comfortably played another round. Dr. John's work was nothing short of miraculous, I'm so fortunate to have found Archetype, saved my golf trip for sure!

Every time I went, I had to wait for at least an hour, almost as if she over booked all her appointments.

Got a consult at another chiropractor and realized my situation is normal and just need maintenance.

LOL Dr. Varley and all his staff are compassionate and very easy to talk too. Either Online, Portal Use or Calling in making appointments, paying bills, Etc., is very easy. Southern Pain Management offers all the traditional pain/nerve blocks, Radio Frequency Ablasions, Etc; Several new innovative procedures including Ketamine infusion treatments at affordable cost to patients. The science of Ketamine Infusion makes too much sense for insurance companies to my help pay for such a thing. They would much rather pay for pain medicine. To my knowledge insurance pays ZERO MONEY for Ketamine Infusion Treatments. Hunter Chatham, CRNA manages all IV Theropy, he too is excellent, professional and compassionate. You can't go wrong coming to Southern Pain Specialist

I have been seeing Dr. Varley for several months and am very happy with the care I have received…read morethere. He was the only doctor in the Birmingham area who was willing to refill my implanted pain pump. Before finding him, I had to drive to Slidell, LA every month to have it filled. He and his staff work together as a team. It is comforting to see teamwork in one's medical care. They are also very good at what they do, and each one plays a part in your care. I have suffered from hip and thigh pain since I had a defective hip replaced with a non-defective one. I thought that the pain was caused by all the surgery. Thank goodness Dr. Varley had other impressions. He discovered that the pain was emanating from my spine and that Radio Frequency Ablation (RFA) was the solution. I had been having it performed on the other side of my spine for several years, with good results. Walking without pain is truly amazing, after suffering with it for so many years. I highly recommend Southern Pain Specialists for anyone with back/spine problems.

I had a head on collision in September 2021. My right knee was injured. I saw an orthopedic doctor…read moreand after x-rays and an MRI he said surgery was needed to repair my knee. The surgery made it worse. My knee swelled up to twice the size of my left knee and left me in more pain than I had before the operation. After several months I went back to the ortho doctor and he gave me three options: live with the pain, get a cortisone shot every couple months or have a knee replacement. I didn't like any of the three. I was researching knee replacement and ran across a website for stem cell therapy. I made an appointment and long story short, took the treatments and it helped for a while then the pain was back. I decided to get a knee replacement. My wife had a bad car wreck in 1998. She has had several surgeries on her back and neck. The result has been chronic pain and neuropathy for years. It was so bad she couldn't hardly walk. Every year she felt like she was dying a little more. She started losing feeling in her feet and limbs, stayed swelled up all the time. She has been on pain meds for 15 years and they have slowly increased because the pain level has increased with age. She got a tip from a friend to try Dr. Kwan, after the first treatment feeling started coming back in her feet. She has gone once a week for several weeks and it's amazing the changes I have seen in her, she can walk without being in pain. So back to my knee replacement. Mary told me please try Dr, Kwan first. I reluctantly agreed. One of the best things I have ever done. I have had three treatments, the swelling is gone and the pain is greatly reduced. Dr. Kwan and his wife are amazing and wonderful people. So full of compassion and wanting to help people in pain. Thank you for what you do.
