I also have multiple other bulging discs like I mentioned previously in my back and my next spines. I cannot bend over I cannot take care of my basic needs anymore I have become fully disabled and fully unable to work. Doctor Lee was the only person who ever took my treatment seriously and the only reason I had to stop seeing her was because my work for one didn't file my work injury claim properly, I work at the shipyard in Seattle as a longshoreman and marine machinist and marine heavy diesel mechanic working on all of the Washington State ferry boat machinist and mechanical repairs and all of the US Navy military warship destroyer projects department of Defense projects and contract jobs. My employer never filed my work injury claim at all and cut off my health insurance over a year ago. I haven't even been able to continue with the basic care that I need. I really really need to get back in to see Dr Lee if there's any way Dr Lee you could contact me I would really appreciate it. My phone # 3608996352

Dr Dan Nelson is the ultimate professional. He is caring, thoughtful, and explains the procedure…read morethoroughly. His training and skill level is the highest in the region. 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.

If I could give ZERO stars, I would! STAY AWAY FROM HERE!! I was referred by my current Dr to Dr…read more Nelson at this location. My current Dr warned me he had had several other patients whom he referred, who had appointments cancelled on them when they showed up. It was so bad, Dr. Nelson visited my Dr at his practice to personally apologize and promise this would never happen again. Surprise, surprise, he was WRONG! From the moment I first called to make my appointment, I should have known there was an issue. They would not even schedule my appointment without my claim number from my auto accident. The next day, I gathered all of my information and called the next day to make an appointment. The earliest I could schedule was more than a month out. The woman I spoke with took all my contact information, phone numbers, email address, claim number, adjuster's name and phone number as well as the name of my Dr who referred me. I was coming in under an auto accident claim but she did also confirm I had medical insurance and my provider for this as well. Another words, she had ALL my information, can't think of anything she missed. So yesterday, I show up for my appointment with Dr. Nelson, and wait for it...it was CANCELLED. The girl behind the desk was completely unapologetic and said they tried to call me and couldn't reach me so they cancelled my appointment. She stated they needed my claim number and my adjuster's information to verify coverage. I pointed out they clearly had this information as the appointment would only be scheduled after I provided all of this information. They also had my wrong phone number in the system( mind you I gave them 2 when I made my appointment), however, instead of following-up with my referring Dr., they chose to cancel my appointment. No apology from the snotty girl behind the desk and the only thing offered to me was making another appointment. If this one didn't work, why would I risk it happening again. Their customer service is horrible and their Dr.'s know it and continue to let it happen. If you make an appointment here, don't be surprised if it is cancelled. Find some where else to go where they will value you as a patient. I saw my referring Dr. yesterday and he said that was their last shot an no more referrals will be headed to Washington Center for Pain Management.

She could not be a more conscientious, patient, empathetic, and truly wonderful person. I've had all sorts of med issues, insurance hold ups, and other problems since I started seeing her and she's been AMAZING! Come to her with an issue or a potential screw up and she'll work tirelessly to come up with a solution that greatly improves your quality of life. I comply with the very very few regulations unfairly imposed on her by the DEA. If you decide to use "old prescriptions" or something else rather than sending her a message explaining that you are out of meds and the pain is getting bad that's a reflection on you not her. If you contact her, she's very very likely to have you make an emergency appointment to discuss why your meds are working. If your UA passes, and if federal regulations allow she might switch your meds or give you another solution. PLEASE whatever you do don't violate your patient agreement and put her license in jeopardy because you need relief now. There's only one catch: WA has a prescription drug database that's routinely monitored. If you're prescribed controlled substances by another doc, an ER, or simply make a mistake... just send her a message. If, however, you fail your UA or hide other controlled substance prescriptions then you'll likely be terminated. They don't do random unannounced UAs, they treat you like a responsible adult and tell you all of this upfront! I couldn't ask for more! She's awesome. If you're looking for a pain med doc.... look no further.

Naibert Jr. is BY FAR the WORST pain management doctor I've EVER been to!! DO NOT waste your time going to see him! He has NO "bedside manner" other than "his way or the highway" He is condescending in his talk and manners, as well as disrespectful. He has a very specific agenda for how he treats his patients and does not take into account what the patient states as what has or hasn't worked for them in previous treatments. On my first visit he "lectured" for an 1 1/2 hours on the "evils" of opioid use and stated "I'm the last good guy out there that is trying to save your life".....very arrogant!!

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.
