Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I'm shocked to see my X pain management doc, dr. Arthur has ANY high ratings. Warning to anyone considering getting any procedure done by him: DO NOT DO IT! Dr. Arthur & his partner in crime anesthesiologist only want your money. I call them the "double dippers". Last I heard certain practices were being investigated. Oh & if that's not enough for you to look elsewhere, do not be expecting dr. Arthur do any follow-up care for you. It's been over a yr that I had procedure done. ONLY rec 1 ph call from him. He ACTUALLY asked me (the patient) "why am I not finding your MRI anywhere?" Wow! He had just stuck a needle in my back a week earlier. SCARY!

Very positive experience. Diagnosis and treatment were explained in terms that I could understand. Appreciated the fact that he was listening to my responses as well as answering all of my questions clearly. Also appreciate being seen quickly (although I do realize that this is sometimes not under the control of the doctor or staff, depending on the complexity of the other patients problems) Overall very pleased and satisfied with my outcome.

I have been seeing Dr. Arthur for about 14 years. He is always willing to listen to my concerns and to help me achieve an solution for them. Early on I asked him to help me lead as near normal life as I could with minimal pain. He has worked on that goal offering up new techniques that have been more than helpful for me. I do not know what I would have done without him and I will be forever thankful for the excellent care he has given me. Plus his office staff is wonderful to work with.
