I was shocked and…read moreappalled to be berated by Cabaret who would lecture me about what "real pain was" telling me "people in wheelchairs" knew "real pain" - the funniest part is that my mom's twin is a quadriplegic so telling me that people in wheelchairs are the only ones with real pain was rich coming from Cabaret.... I started bringing a family member with me at all times to appointments just because the way he spoke to me was so unprofessional, and they all agreed witnessed how he would berate, speak down to and invalidate anything I said, because to Cabaret since I didn't have a physical handicap, my pain wasn't valid to him - even though I had several autoimmune conditions with chronic pain as well as severe rheumatoid arthritis and degenerative disc conditions... After ~2 years of this I stopped seeing him altogether: I couldn't deal with graveling for help for months and receiving treatment here or there while enduring being talked to and treated in such a horrible way. I actually gave up on pain management docs for ~8 years because of experiences here... I powered through pain for so long I ended up with an TLIF spinal fusion with disc replacement due to severe central canal stenosis after going to ER for back pain, I was put in an ambulance for an emergency spinal surgery on a Sunday to prevent paralysis (I was riding my motorcycle through the pain of severe central canal stenosis that required ambulatory transfer and emergency spinal fusion surgery on a Sunday). I was fortunate to finally receive compassionate care from both a neurosurgeon and pain management doctor as recovered (located in Ventura). About a year after my spinal fusion: I needed a facet block and MBB RFA due to nerve pain that never resolved after the surgery. My quality of life is so much better - I feel like I am part of the living again. I hate medications and the side effects of them, but sometimes they are necessary, and sometimes injections or surgical procedures are also necessary for relief. Thankfully, now I see physicians who are compassionate and listen to both visible and invisible pain and will work to find the root cause of it - all while treating me with decency, like I'm a human being.

Dr Cabaret is the most compassionate, patient, and supportive pain management doctor that I have…read moreever had the honor of being a patient of. Not only does Dr. Cabaret do traditional pain management with epidural injections, medication, and physical therapy; but Cabaret looks holistically as you as a person, and wants to hear your mental, emotional, and spiritual pain. Dr. Cabaret is a big supporter of alternatives including CBD, Acupuncture, and Massage Therapy. If you are a patient that is also having issues with addiction to opiates or pain medication, Dr Cabaret also assists with medicated aided treatment for opiate dependence. His background, experience, and professionalism make him a solid provider for this life saving service. What I admire most about Dr Cabaret is he takes accountability and ownership in your pain management. Dr Cabaret will do everything that he can to help you ease your pain, but it takes two (you the patient and Dr Cabaret). If you are not ready to put in your work to help improve your pain management, this is not the place for you.

Sean is always making sure the family is doing well and if resources are needed, he gladly helps in anyway he can. Because of him. I'm giving Newport 5 stars. We need more Sean Plummer's in this world. Thank you.

Think twice before allowing these folks to care for and treat your child!…read more When we dropped our daughter off, we expected therapy based on compassion, structure, and organization. What we got was anything but. The issues started within hours of dropping her off. She was not happy (of course) and they allowed her to call mom repeatedly, which made the day 1 process 100 times harder than it already was. It seemed that she was allowed to call home (or whoever because she called lots of people) as often as she wanted. As the first week progressed, our daughter had a panic attack and they took her to the hospital instead of simply using their therapeutic tools to calm her down. We got a call saying she was being taken to the hospital with no other communication. Our calls to the facility went unanswered as did our emails to the therapist and or staff members. A week or so later, our daughter got into an altercation with another patient. The call to us was that our daughter was punched by this other person because she was in this person's face yelling. When we asked what was going to happen to this person, we were told.. "Nothing... what do you expect someone to do when they've asked your daughter to get out of her face and she wouldn't." What?? Truth was this person not only punched our daughter, but jumped on her and started choking her as well as punching her chest and neck area. They also failed to mention that when the other residents were leaving the home, this attacker attempted to jump through an outside window and back into my daughters room to continue the attack. As a result of this attack, my daughter had another panic/anxiety attack and was once again taken to the local hospital. The conversations between the facility and us were beyond ridiculous and uncaring. They were blaming my daughter and did not act as if they were in the mental health field. Again, emails to the therapist in charge of the facility were never returned. When we got her from a hospital, we saw the scratches and bruises. She has since been enrolled into a different facility and in the short time there, has made remarkable progress, so again, please do your research before sending your child to residential treatment. I can't speak for all locations, but the Camarillo location is a definite NO for many reasons.
