I really wondered why this place had such bad reviews because my first few visits were good. After…read more12 years of daily pain from a nerve entrapment, I finally got some pain relief, if you can call tramadol relief. But it was better than nothing, I had a diagnosis and a hope of a cure. I have attended every appointment. I did the nerve block even though it was apparently just a diagnostic thing and not meant as a more permanent pain relief which is what I was told. Eventually I tried to schedule a nerve ablation and was informed that even though my insurance would cover it (I confirmed myself) that they did not charge insurance. Well, I don't have a grand laying around right now so I said it'd probably have to wait but I'd talk to Dr. Kaplan at my next appointment. At my next appointment, I waited nearly an hour past my appointment time, finally spoke to Dr. Kaplan and was told that they did indeed charge insurance and she would take care of it. I heard nothing from them for a week.... And then they finally called to schedule the procedure.... The day I was in the hospital with my husband who was having extensive surgery on both hands since both his thumbs had somehow become detached. I called them back two days later and said I needed to find out what the recovery time was because I now have a husband with no working hands which means I really need to be fully dinctioning until he heals in the next 4-6 months. I never received a call back and kind of forgot about it because taking care of 6 kids and a farm while teaching with no other adult help has had me a little busy. And today, I get a letter stating that I have been dismissed from the clinic for "failure to comply". Comply with what, exactly? I came to every appointment. I followed their drug instructions to the letter.... In fact, I didn't even get the last medication refill because my pcm told me she wouldn't treat my anxiety/ptsd if I continued to take it. So what exactly did I "not comply" with.... *follow up* They have called and claimed I popped positive for methamphetamine at my appointment on 11/18.... But showed nothing for the benzos I'm prescribed and take regularly. And then, after said supposedly positive test which was in November, they still put in a refill weeks later for pain medication. I was also prescribed promethazine on 11/12/25, 6 days before this drug test. Guess what pops positive for methamphetamines..... Promethazine. I know this because the exact same false positive happened with the exact same medication in 2022 when I was giving birth and I still have the signed affidavits from two pharmacists saying that it did.... A 36% chance in fact, higher depending on the manufacturer. And for the record, I tried to tell them at that appointment that I had been prescribed new medication and it wasn't in my file and they said it didn't matter. Sure. This kind of unethical bs is why chronic pain patients kill themselves. This clinic makes military doctors look good and I didn't even think that was possible. 13 years of absolute misery, finally get something resembling help and a hope that the problem can actually be fixed and they snatched that away because they're too damn stupid to log medications or know that medications can cause false positives. But no, clearly I woke up one day at the ripe old age of 43 and just randomly decided to do meth while knowing I was going to be drug tested. Absolute morons. Apparently in TN you don't get pain relief unless you want to run the risk of one of your allergies actually killing you by not taking your medication. I hope everyone in this place suffers some God awful injury and spends the rest of their lives in absolute misery. have the karma you so richly deserve.

Please don't let their kindness while you're spending your hard earned money with them fool you!!!!…read more I was a patient of theirs for approximately 18 years. They had had me on high doses of opioids and opioid pain patches. I just recently had to move out of state when I did they would not cover my care to detox me off of the patches and pills or cover me until I could get established with another pain management in the state I moved to. You just do not leave a patient in physical and emotional distress the way they did me be aware of this before you go see them.

The doctor never listened or addressed my concerns and I have a debilitating disease that has…read moregotten progressively worse over the years because I'm a disabled veteran. I would not recommend this place for long term treatment. It was good for the first few years, but that's it. I stayed on the same dosage for almost 5 years with not so much as feedback from the doctor despite me telling the doctor my condition had gotten worse. My advice is to find a doctor that cares and listens to your concerns.

From the front office to the back and lab employees in between. I was treated with kindness. There…read moreis such a big stigmatism with chronic pain and pain management, it normally always causes us to feel guilty or ashamed that we have chronic pain and need help. I've seen about 15 different doctors, specialist, surgeons.. etc. in the last 4 years , I've had several different surgeries, painful test and procedures, gone through so many different medications and had to deal with their side effects. My life has been totally shattered. Today was my first visit with Dr. Ball, I had heard that he was very kind from several of my own patients, being a nurse I always want to know how my patients feel about the specialist that we refer out to. They've all said that he was so kind, so helpful, and most said he helped them regain their lives back. I can't even express how correct they were, he is so kind spoken, his bed side manner is amazing, and I really felt like he saw me, that he felt my misery and really wants to help. I did not feel like just a number or that I should feel ashamed of the fact that I'm in daily pain and need help. Tomorrow when I return to work, I will give all the details to the doctor that I work for and we will only refer to him in the future. People who hurt everyday, all day, need help ! They don't need to be judged or treated as if they are drug seekers, or be made to feel ashamed. Yes there is an opioid epidemic ( I didn't get opioids) but even if I did the epidemic and street use has made it so hard for people who are suffering and need help from these medication types to get the medications that would help them to be able to enjoy and live life. The entire office worked very smoothly , everyone knew their job and stayed right on time completing task that were needed done before I seen Dr. Ball. I was so impressed by the stream line, and time management. If you are looking for someone and need help, please consider Dr.Ball... he can help you without making you feel ashamed or apologetic that you need pain management.

Everyone was so nice and helpful. I had been in the hospital a couple of weeks ago and get short of breath if I have to walk not far at all. I would like to thanks the nurse and Jeanie for their understanding and help to have me breath correctly when I am having difficulty and can't catch my breath. We didn't see Dr. Blake on this trip, but he has always been excellent when I've seen him and he has always been concerned when he does any procedure on me. Dr. Blake always explains what he will be doing and is always willing to answer any questions I or my family my have. Just wanted to say thank you to all in the Cleveland office!

First off I wish I could give two separate reviews; one for the staff and another for the head…read moredoctor. The staff is amazing. So much better than other pain management places I've been a patient. They are prompt at insurance paperwork, prior approvals, phone calls and are polite in demeanor and care. That said, Dr. Blake is the complete opposite. I do not know why he is a pain care Doctor. As far as I can tell he hates us as pain patients. He does not care how much pain we are in or how that pain affects our daily lives. He will not budge on how much he prescribes even though the law and insurance says all you have to do is fill out a form stating why said patient needs said medication...he will not do it no matter what that's it. Also, my script was prewritten by e-script to be filled on a Sunday at a Walgreens in Germantown on Brainerd Rd. It was flooded due to heavy rains and closed. if you know anything about controlled substances, you can't transfer the scripts and you can't fill them early. You have to fill that day. We called the on-call doc to have them transfer the script to another Walgreens that was open to have it filled and it was Dr. Blake. Well, he said NO. He doesn't work on the weekends and told us to call back when the office was open on Monday. My husband told him "why would you write a script for a Sunday if you have no intention of helping us getting that script filled in case of emergency? My wife is out of medication and the pharmacy is flooded?" Dr. Blake responded that he told his staff not to write scripts for the weekend so it's on them not him and hung up. Dr. Blake has no compassion for pain patients. He doesn't care about the plight that we are in and he know that he is the one with the power and we are helpless. The laws are written to keep us in pain and helpless and to keep men like Dr. Blake hungry for money and power. I pray you find a better more compassionate place for help.
