I have been a patient at Maryland Pain and Spine Center at their Westminster (other location-Maple…read moreLawn) office for several years now. I couldn't be more impressed with the level of care I receive from Dr. Hugo Torres and Melissa Richards, CRNP. Recently, I had a problem after hours and Dr. Gunawardane was covering. Dr Gunawardane was very concerned and helpful in resolving my problem. I usually see Melissa Richards, NP for my monthly office visits. The office support staff is absolutely exceptional. I am always greeted with a warm and welcoming hello when I enter the office. Melissa is not only attentive and thorough, but also takes the time to explain my treatment options. They are also open to considering my suggestions regarding my treatment plan and care about what I have to say. They listen to my observations of my treatment and consider my condition with great empathy and respect. They explain the purpose of their recommendations so that I may understand the alternatives and limitations. They don't just hand me my opioid prescriptions and say "see you next month", like some of the other pain management office's have done to me. Melissa listens and talks with me and makes sure all my questions have been addressed. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

After scheduling an appointment 4 weeks in advance, she is notoriously late from 30 to 55 minutes for each appointment. She barely looks or speaks to you during your appointment. She constantly checks her phone or types on a lap top. She will want to hold your hands a pray, read religious scripts to you and suggest you join her religious prayer/cult group. She even gave me a phone number to call and meet her prayer cult daily at 6am and 6 pm. One make doctor at the practice told me to NEVER Schedule an appointment with him, only with a PA. I asked Dodzi-Bell for 8 months to please order an updated MRI because the pain was getting worse. She didn't. My new MRI with a real doctor at a Spine center shows my condition has deteriorated. I need a spine fusion. CLEARWAY PAIN will take your money but only push medication or shots. DO NOT WAIST YOUR TIME OR MONEY AND YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY'S MONEY. Call center suck. Scheduling an appointment 28 days in advance with DODZI-BELL ALWAYS run 30 to 50 minutes OR MORE late and they don't listen to YOUR concerns. Horrible business practices!!!! If you leave a bad review they will make up stuff to discharge you from the practice. Written JULY 6, 2026... December 2024 ... PA was behind with appointments. She came in a half hour after my appointment time. Other than that, actual scheduled time late because of the PA running late, everything else went fine.

I'm doing this review for my pain management doctor. Dr Abed is a God send for me. I have been…read moresuffering from pain and herniated disc and fractured disc in my lumbar spine and my sciatic nerve. I began seeing Dr Abed several years ago at the request from a different doctor. I saw him and immediately he pinpointed the pain spots and he said this is what you have & these are the treatment options. He brought it up on his computer to show me how damaged my spine actually was and why I was and in so much pain. He offered me injections in my back to alleviate the pain. I got the injection for a few years and then it stopped working and I required surgery. He booked a Rhizotomy and burned my nerves. Very successful. He believes the same as me too treat with the least invasive approach first then if needed go to the Rhizotomy or facet joint injection or sciatica injection. The office staff is good. The office is always clean. I highly recommend Dr Abed to help you with your pain management especially back pain. He has been very helpful, informative, gentle, supportive, respectful and professional. He got me through a difficult time when my right leg was not working and was numb but painful and I had difficulty walking. He treated me and about 3 months later I was back to normal. I can't say enough about his practice but 10/10!! I am going to add that he does not give any prescriptions for pain medication.

The doctors told me that the best they could do was pain meds or surgery. I said "no way!" I did yoga instead - which helped. But then I met Dr. Bache (cue music). My parents warned me about chiropractors but having spent years on this man's table (get your mind out of the gutter) I can't imagine where I would be without his magic. I am pain free. Did you hear me? Pain free! I do visit him now and then for an adjustment and have sent several friends to see him as well. I am a very last minute person and the good doctor can always fit me in....big bonus.

I am disabled, and need extra assistance with certain things. They went out of their way to help me and were kind and professional as well. The doctor was phenomenal. He took time to ask me about my experience at the previous pain management clinic I attended, and why I left. He asked what I was hoping to get out of my experience with him and his clinic. We discussed my medication's and he was able to tell me that I had received some in accurate information previously. we made adjustments to my medication's and he told me what his course of action would be if I don't see improvement. He was very open and explained things thoroughly. He was very kind and personable, but also incredibly knowledgeable and professional. I am very happy that I made the choice to switch clinics and I am confident I will see reduction in my pain levels and that he will work with me until that happens.

I have dealt with chronic pain for the past 17 years and I have seen many pain management doctors and he is, without hesitation, my favorite doctor. Not only does he listen to all of my concerns and address them accordingly, he always takes the time to ask me about all other aspects of my life - my marriage, my husband, my children. He's truly a good caring person all the way around!! The icing on the cake... ALL of his staff are always kind and understanding, even when you have a personal issue arise the day before your scheduled appointment and have to make your appointment time around. If I could give all of them more than five stars I would!!

I am a retired U. Md. RN and my daughter has been an ER nurse for 5 years, so we recognize quality health care. Dr. Kass has been thorough and always responds to my concerns by ordering appropriate tests/treatments. My daughter says Erica Gifford communicates well. She trusts her enough to send her two teen/tween daughters to her. Dr. Haugh did a good job with my urgent care issue and is also the primary provider for my two grandsons, one of whom has a chronic autoimmune disease. It is helpful that labs can be drawn in the office most of the time. The staff has always been pleasant and professional. We highly recommend this practice.
