    I set an appointment with Dr Greenberg and before coming in i explicitly asked if they treated the…read more2 types of conditions i have and did medication management and they said yes. When he finally came in, the first thing he said to me was "why are you here, what can i help you with?" - I FILLED OUT 20 PAGES OF PAPERWORK. YOU SHOULD ALREADY KNOW WHY I'M HERE. Second thing he said was "I don't know why you're here, I don't really treat what you have." The staff obviously booked me knowing full-well that they weren't actually going to do anything to help me, just so they could get paid for a visit. And of course there will be no consequences for them, there never are. When i spoke with them they said they were "different than other pain clinics" because they offer prolotherapy and stem cell therapy. They're not. This is just one more self-important doctor who treats you like you're a drug addict for asking for pain medication despite having well-documented pain causing conditions. I can't get any help anywhere for pain, despite trying all kinds of alternative methods because doctors are so afraid to prescribe pain medication because of the selfish fools who abuse them. Never met a single doctor in my life who actually trusts their patients to make wise decisions. I left the place in tears.

    March 2018! I went to this person that I hesitate to even call a doctor for almost 2yrs, but after…read more18 months of Physical & Mental HELL...I am Free of his Mental Head Games..His 1st concern on my 1st visit, would I write a review for him..Sure, I really believed on that 1st visit that he had All my Records..I would learn very soon that he did not have them..And dare I ask him how he can properly care for me, workout my records.I felt like he Retaliated against me, for questioning his care, of me! His bedside manners leave a lot to be desired..I felt he was disconnected from me during our visits..Quite frankly this person caused me so much Physical & Mental Distress it may take awhile for me to feel like myself again..I am Blessed to have the Full Support of Amazing Care Providers now..Who took Extra time to Explain the Extent of my Injury & Show me my Injury in 3D..But Dr. Greenberg(god I hate calling him a doctor) said, Nothing Was Wrong With Me..So I Terminated his service..The only Decent thing about this place, are his 2 nurses..Please if u r new to this person, do not write a review till u have been there for at least a yr..it's unfair to good people in pain..u to will see, but there is Help out there..this person is a Heartbeat away from a Lawsuit..You just can't Intentionally HURT Others & Keep Getting Away with it..I wrote my 1st review last year 2018.. Update! 4/2019 This person who calls himself a doctor is still Dangerous! I write this to Save Others!!! Honest & Factual.. I have spent the last 14 months in the care of Amazing Doctors..Who have been trying to help, with the damage Greenberg caused me.. I walked into Greenberg's with an Injury to my 3 lower disc, tail-bone & left leg. I had nerve pain in my left leg, occ at night! But I Could Walk! I had a Devastating Fall in 98!! Before I continue let me say that not all injured people Abuse Their Meds, and that many Controversial Meds do Help with certain Injuries and are needed! Any Decent Pain Management Doctor knows this! Along with Other Treatments, Injections, Pt, ect... Greenberg Injured me from Dec 2018-Feb. 2019.. By the time I reached a Compassionate doctor, I could not walk with out help, sit, barely stand, and was in a laying position from Dec 19, 2018 to March 2019! He Crippled Me Playing God! It is Very Well Known In The Community what this person is doing!! I now am able to sit very short term, walk very short distances(I had been able to walk my dog prior, no more) I can Stand, against a wall for awhile, its difficult! I have had to have 7 Injections, all but the last one, really helped me..These Injections are a Direct result of Greenberg harming me!!! I had no issues with my Right Leg prior to seeing Greenberg, I have Serious Issues now!! It Originally took me till 2003 to walk...5 yrs!!! Greenberg he put me right back where I was, following the Injury in 98!! I don't know if I will ever be, where I was, physically in 2015, prior to Greenberg's cruel painful debilitating treatment, or Lack There Of!! It took my doctor's (both retired in 2015) 17 yrs to get me in pretty good condition, for my injury!! He Destroyed Their Work on Me!! He Took Me Back 20yr's!! I am Worse now!! And He is Getting Away With Doing This To Others.. I've heard their Stories.. I've met them...Other Doctors have Met Them too.. He Will Try To Retaliate for my Review..Or get them removed, he does this with the Reviews written on his Office Site, by Claiming the person who wrote them, were not his patient! I Was! I Have The Support of Good Friends, Good Doctors Who Are Aware Of Him!! So Please Know That There Is QUALITY Care GP, Drs & Ortho care in Ashland! Who can refer you to Quality Pain Management in Medford Or..Don't Think Like I Did, that He's The Only Doctor Around.. (this is long, but it may save a life) PLEASE NOTE!!!! At the bottom of the page with Reviews for Greenberg, is a link that says, "4 other reviews that are not currently recommended' Click on it, I wish I had seen these Reviews!!!! Years Ago!!! Its in faded writing?? Many Blessing to Those Who Suffer In Silence like I Did!!!

    I'm about a week out after having knee replacement by Dr. Jankuska and couldn't be happier about…read moreit. I had my other knee replaced 18 years ago and the difference is night and day. Yes I'm sure things have advanced since then but Southern Oregon Ortho has been great to me. I started physical therapy yesterday and am getting exactly what I need from knowledgable thearopists. Brian is especially good. My partner has had several surgeries on her hands and wrists From other surgeons and a reverse shoulder replacement. I've been along the ride for all of it. Meeting with her doctors, PAs, and therapists and in my experience it's been very positive.

    I have to add another 1 star review for this terrible organization. Our chiropractor referred my…read morehusband here for consultation for the pain in his left knee. He was seen by a PA, Sofia, who had my husband take a blood test and referred him to Josh, a physical therapist, for a consultation in which he recommended six weeks of physical therapy twice a week. My husband saw Sofia the following Monday. She had him take more x-rays & gave him a big Cortizone shot in his knee, which worked wonderfully. On Tuesday, he had his first PT session with Josh. Later in the evening and into the night he started feeling a LOT more pain and his knee swelled. By Wednesday morning he could hardly get out of bed and was experiencing severe pain that was 10 on a 10 scale. He could not walk without canes or crutches, moaning at every step. He could not move his leg very much at all without excruciating pain. He called Southern Oregon Orthopedics to see if someone could help him because his left leg was hurting all the time from his knee all the way down to his ankle but no one was available. He could NOT get through to a human being. Someone finally called him back and suggested he go to their urgent care, which he did. Our good friend is an RN and he took my husband to the urgent care at Southern Oregon Orthopedics. Our friend strongly recommended that my husband request a sonagram to rule out a blood clot. My husband requested this of the person at the front desk who sent that request on. In a little while a medical assistant came out and said she had conferred with her boss, ANOTHER medical assistant, and they did not "think" he had a blood clot and that he should go home, elevate his knee, and put ice on it. (He had been doing that non-stop since his pain began.) NOTE: it is against the law for medical assistants to diagnose and prescribe. Again he asked for a sonogram. She said that they didn't think he needed one but if he insisted, she would write an order for him to go to Asante and get one. After he left Southern Oregon Orthopedic, he decided to go to Provident Urgent Care where they gave him an order and sent him immediately to Provident Hospital. At Provident Hospital, they checked him in immediately and after about 10 minutes the sonogram technician gave him a sonogram. Before he left the hospital, the Provident sonogram technician sent the findings to the doctor at Provident Urgent Care. The medical doctor at Provident Urgent Care thought it was very important that my husband get a sonogram to rule out a blood clot, which matched what my husband wanted and what our RN friend recommended. (The only ones who disagreed were the two medical assistants at Southern Oregon Orthopedics who were NOT legally qualified to have opinions.) My husband canceled all of his PT appointments at Southern Oregon Orthopedics. At Provident, the doctor gave him a referral to the Sports Medicine medical doctor at Provident Hospital, which is where my husband has decided he will be going for future treatment. My husband said he will never go back to Southern Oregon Orthopedics. He said they are very disorganized, that they don't seem to care about their patients, and that they don't have the right level of people dealing with emergency situations. He said he got a very different level of care in an expedient manner from medical doctors at Provident. And furthermore, if they bill Medicare for what they didn't do yesterday, I will file a charge of Medicare fraud. I understand these people advertise a lot. Perhaps if they took good care of their patients, they would get referrals and wouldn't have to spend so much money on advertising; then they could focus on providing even better care.
