I recently had a spinal injection in my neck with Dr. Kamson. While the injection was quite painful…read moreit was totally worth it! I had terrible headache and neck pain and could not concentrate on anything. I had an interview coming up so started to look for solution since I couldn't take any pain meds and had to be sharp for it. I had the injection and so far have been completely pain free for a couple of months. Very happy. The doctor is very knowledgeable and very nice.  Great skill I think :) Totally saved me.

He should NOT be doing high risks procedures out-patient. It sounds great, but not worth your health. I woke up during the last 2 surgeries and had to go to the ER after being sent home too early after the last one. I was given 3 numbers to call & not one was answered by any staff. Meanwhile, I was violently ill and scared. I'm 4 months post-op and feel worse than ever. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Will be seeing a neurologist to find out what went wrong. I wished that I was made aware of his flawed reputation earlier.

I haven't had much, if any, neck issues since then. And even if I get some flare ups, I feel confident to resolve that with the exercises he's given me, and it resolves within a week (usually less). I recently started having really bad lower back pain for about the last 1-2 months and I finally made an appt to see him today. Zach gave me such an informative rundown on the root issues and the assessment was spot-on to my bad [posture] habits. He assured me in the way I needed it and again gave me the proper tools and exercises to feel confident that I can tackle this. I left feeling much less stiffness and tension in my lower back bc he spent some time loosening it up and adjusting my back. Can't say enough wonderful things about the guy and his knowledge. I already recommended him to some of my gfs.

I spent time and money on traditional physical therapy and was prescribed painkillers, repeating the same cycle for almost 7 years with no real relief. Within just one month of working with Zach, my lower back pain was gone. He took the time to properly assess my condition and his adjustments gave me my life back, pain-free. If you have been struggling with long-term pain and feel stuck, do yourself a favor and see Zach. I only wish I had found him sooner.

As a former board certified anesthesiologist, he entered the field of pain management to provide multiple relief modalities to patients, depending on their individual needs and physical condition. I sought his care to extend my hiking years--degenerative changes in my knees 5 and 17 years after 2 routine orthoscopic meniscus surgeries had left me unable to hike more than a mile without pain. After review of MRIs and discussion of possible differential Dr Nelson almost painlessly extracted bone marrow from my hips and injected the specially spun down stem cells into both of my knees. 30 days later his PA, Sarah injected platelet rich plasma into both knees. That procedure was absolutely painless--thanks Sarah, you are amazing. The results have been phenomenal. Hiking, vagaries of weather affecting my knees, early morning stiffness have improved significantly. I can hike several miles now, and at 73 that works quite well for me.

In short Don't judge them by the disorganized front office…read more The provider care is compassionate and excellent. In long After my lovely bride had a massive stroke 15 months ago, pain set in over time. Neural pain makes mild inflammation in her hip and thigh feel like torture. If she pulls a muscle it's agony (and it's easy to fall when you've lost mobility, which can lead to pulls). She gets headaches that she never used to get. Lots of aches and pains throughout. We tried a pain management clinic in Everett and all they really did was walk us through the idea that there are 3 ways to manage pain. First is pain-relief drugs, which they refused to prescribe since they're not in the same network with her primary care. Sigh. Second is active treatment, and she was already getting PT, OT, massage, and, at the time, acupuncture. So they didn't see any potential there. Third is carefully-planned rest and activity periods. She was loving getting up and walking at the time so she was getting her blood flowing more than zero. So they agreed to do nothing at all for her. We also saw a pain interventionist in Silver Lake, who consciously declares (and is known in the industry) never to prescribe. She focuses on injections and other outpatient procedures to manage how the nervous system perceives pain. She couldn't see anything that would work for her, so, again, she did nothing. We got a third referral after her hip flared up again and her primary prescribed a stronger pain med in the short term. Her primary noted that she's always chasing her pain, rather than really managing it. So off to NWPM we go. The building is new enough, nice enough. Accessible parking underneath with a proper elevator. You get upstairs and it says you must ring the bell to get in. Turns out the door is unlocked, and ringing the bell just makes them get up to answer the door. Why do they not prop the door open? Why do they leave the sign up? It's just a little piece of copier paper taped to the door. Easy to remove. But okay. The front desk staff seemed confused about our presence, at least to some extent. Not sure what to have us do, not sure who we'd be seeing, not sure what to tell us to expect. Not encouraging. We sat in the waiting room, which looks like they got it on closeout. Tags still on. Frames with stock photos still inside--not even of local scenery, just the family photos that they sell with the empty frame. A little creepy. None of the furniture goes together. We finally go back and the physician's assistant who sees us is super nice. Very calm guy, patiently goes over her whole chart and recent medical history. Walks her through tons of options, asks tons of questions, explains all the different ideas he has for helping her. First he wants to replace her meds with a patch that will continuously manage her pain, and see how that goes. Sounds great! He said he just had a patient report that morning that she found the exact same Rx to be "stunning" in its effectiveness. Then on the way out we have to have a UA test to make sure she's eligible for a strong pain med...they don't know how we're gonna do that, or who's gonna help. So they let someone else go first while we wait with all the mismatched furniture. In the end, we're very optimistic about the potential for this treatment. But every other patient and every person in the office reminded us of an episode of Better Call Saul. Odd vibes here.

However, it's a little confusing b/c when you enter from the parking garage, it's literally a straight shot into the clinic! You don't have to go to the second floor. I'm so glad there were parking signs that pointed to the parking garage from all different angles and within radius! That was what I was most concerned about when I was heading down for my appt. The parking garage is small but you have to look up at the parking spots and see which ones are labeled 'Optum.' They're compact sized too so be careful since it's next to some concrete pillars between the parking spaces. I went here for Dermatology and not sure what other depts are around.
