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.

Trust him completely. Very qualified and excellent physician.

I was so pleased with my general MD to have recommend Dr. Woeste to solve my back pain. Dr Woeste and his staff are inquisitive, probing and he my problem. A few pain pills needed only up to the day of the shot in the back at precisely the right spot and it solved a very severe constant and practically debilitating issue. No pain pills now. Thanks to all! Please solve your telephone problem and prevent one from having to physically go to the office to make an appointment

He managed my pain effectively for 8 years. I was a great patient who never broke any rules. When he learned about new laws governing opiods, he cut the dosage I'd been on for years in half causing me excruciating pain & my quality of life decreased completely. I'm in a wheelchair unable to walk, bones fused, tendons shortened, muscle spasms, etc. I dared to complain & after 3 mos. He discharged me! I've waited 2 mos now 4 my records but he'll only give me the last 3 mos. When pain wasn't manage

Dr.Woeste and his staff at Riverside Beaches took the very best care of my grandmother. They grew to know her by face and name, were beyond understanding and patient while coming up with a treatment plan and treated her with compassion like they would family.

After a wait of 3 hours, he came in, screamed at me, calling me names, never met the man before. Implied I was delusional, slapped the desk repeatedly, had a large nurse came and blocked the doorway- I was told ‘I cannot leave until you sign this’ and ‘fired’ me. Loose cannon, god complex, beyond rude, and violent. No one should ever be treated so poorly. And then LIED to my next doctor. Stay far away!!!!

If you want someone who is truly dedicated to improving your quality of life, you can find none better than Dr John Woeste. He has enabled me to have a quality of life I never expected while fighting cancer. His gentle and positive approach brings much comfort to me and my family.

On Sept 13, 2016, I wrote about how Dr. Woeste's staff sent my lab work to an 'out of network' lab with the potential cost of $3,300. On Nov 16, 2016, I called the office again to clarify the charge for my Aug 23rd visit and I learned that I was overcharged by $46.23. I asked for a refund and they said it would take 6-8 weeks. Well after 6-7 calls, I finally received the check today. Dr. Woeste may be a good pain doctor but dealing with the office staff is enough to make me never go back.

Dr Woeste identified where my pain was originating from and it was not where I thought it was. He treated me with the first step in relieving my pain. Surgery was the last option which he suggested was not an option at this time. He stated that we could complete the task of relieving my pain through injections and therapy and last resort medication. I am on my way to recovering from pain from an accident I had. I am not 100% pain relief yet but we are getting there. He is GREAT!!!

His staff is awful! I was yelled at and scolded. He wrote the wrong doses (double what i was taking) on my medication, then told me I was wrong. I had to bring in the old bottles to prove I was correct. No apology and refused to call the pharmacy. They had to call him. I left soon after!
