As a prior patient of other pain clinics in Birmingham, I can say that unlike the other pill mills,…read moreThe Doleys Clinic staff has been wonderful, helpful, and sincere about finding out why I am in pain and helping me managing it. They offer both homeopathic medicines as well the standard medications. Dr. Jimmeh (who sadly left during COVID) was the most knowledgeable and helpful, she was one of the best pain/neurologist doctors I've seen ever. The staff is always helpful, and easy to work with, Especially when BC/BS messes with medication coverage. Sadly after Dr. Jimmeh left I was put with another doctor, him and I didn't see eye to eye and my confidence in the Doleys clinic lagged. I may have left but I would still very much recommend them as one of the few good pain clinics in the Birmingham area. Just remember, although you are a patient, you are also a customer, so don't be afraid to be assertive and ask questions of your doctors. You will get the best care when you do.

LOL Dr. Varley and all his staff are compassionate and very easy to talk too. Either Online, Portal Use or Calling in making appointments, paying bills, Etc., is very easy. Southern Pain Management offers all the traditional pain/nerve blocks, Radio Frequency Ablasions, Etc; Several new innovative procedures including Ketamine infusion treatments at affordable cost to patients. The science of Ketamine Infusion makes too much sense for insurance companies to my help pay for such a thing. They would much rather pay for pain medicine. To my knowledge insurance pays ZERO MONEY for Ketamine Infusion Treatments. Hunter Chatham, CRNA manages all IV Theropy, he too is excellent, professional and compassionate. You can't go wrong coming to Southern Pain Specialist

I have been seeing Dr. Varley for several months and am very happy with the care I have received…read morethere. He was the only doctor in the Birmingham area who was willing to refill my implanted pain pump. Before finding him, I had to drive to Slidell, LA every month to have it filled. He and his staff work together as a team. It is comforting to see teamwork in one's medical care. They are also very good at what they do, and each one plays a part in your care. I have suffered from hip and thigh pain since I had a defective hip replaced with a non-defective one. I thought that the pain was caused by all the surgery. Thank goodness Dr. Varley had other impressions. He discovered that the pain was emanating from my spine and that Radio Frequency Ablation (RFA) was the solution. I had been having it performed on the other side of my spine for several years, with good results. Walking without pain is truly amazing, after suffering with it for so many years. I highly recommend Southern Pain Specialists for anyone with back/spine problems.

My experience with Cahaba Pain and Spine was disappointing…read more I was a patient for approximately six months and did not feel that my concerns were adequately addressed or that there was a proactive approach to managing my pain. Despite ongoing symptoms and significant impacts on my quality of life, progress was limited during my time there. One interaction that particularly stood out involved a nurse practitioner who repeatedly insisted that I maintain eye contact while speaking with him. As a neurodivergent patient, difficulty with eye contact is well documented in my medical records. Rather than accommodating that difference, I felt pressured and uncomfortable during the appointment. Healthcare providers do not have to fully understand every neurodivergent experience, but patients should be treated with respect and without being made to feel that their communication style is a problem. What ultimately confirmed my concerns was that after transferring my care to another pain management practice, more diagnostic work, treatment planning, and meaningful intervention occurred within days than I experienced during six months at Cahaba. Every patient's experience is different, but based on my own, I would not recommend this practice for neurodivergent individuals or for patients seeking a collaborative, proactive approach to pain management.

I was referred to Alabama Pain Physicians by my neurologist for a nerve block due to severe,…read moreongoing pain. After speaking with someone in their office, I was told I would receive a call back within 2 days. That call never came. It has now been over 3 weeks (25 days), and despite leaving a voicemail, I never received any follow-up. During this time, I continued to suffer in significant pain without treatment. I ultimately had to find another provider, who was able to schedule and perform the procedure within a week. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this practice due to the lack of communication and follow-through.

Dr. Mendoza correctly identified pain in my shoulder as a nerve problem stemming from compressed…read morediscs in my neck. He ordered MRIs to validate his assumptions and treated me. I have had no further issues with my shoulder. This was after a year of ortho, bone and joint specialists, pain meds, and phys therapy, all of which were unhelpful.

The last text encounter we had, he called me a very mean hurtful name. This is one of those doctors who should not be in business. Besides that, his staff are always in a bad mood. They raise their tone of voice and yell at you. I have audio proof of this. Oh, and count on waiting at least 75-90 minutes because they are so unorganized there. Everyone there is overwhelmed, exhausted, and rude. Anyway, don't go to this doctor if you are a female under the age of 55 because he will most definitely flirt with you and then be mean to you and hurt your feelings. This business will be shut down, so don't even bother looking into it. There are plenty of other pain clinics in this area. No need to see one who just wants to bang you and call you mean names out of the blue. I think he has a mental disorder due to the name he called me. ***This doctor knows everything about me and he took advantage of that and that's what the big deal is***
