Do not waste your time here if you have real, complex pain.I came in as a diabetic patient with a serious infected wound — active, documented, and debilitating. I was told by a pain management clinic that wound pain is 'tricky' and they couldn't do much about it. Let that sink in. A pain management clinic. That cannot manage pain.What they COULD do was immediately move to pushing a $3,500 cash-only procedure not covered by insurance, with no long-term studies backing it up, plus $500 a month ongoing after that. No hesitation on that part.This is predatory. Telling a suffering patient there's nothing you can do, then dangling an expensive unproven procedure is not medicine — it's a sales pitch. Wound pain is absolutely treatable through legitimate, evidence-based medicine. I know because I went and found actual help elsewhere.If you are vulnerable, in pain, and desperate — which is exactly who walks through their door — be warned. They will take your money.
