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.

Great Pain consultants
They ask questions and do nerve conduction study to see where and what your actual pain is and put actual names to it and for this reason alone I am very thankful to them as for years I suffered with pains I did not know why until they told me the cause others just wrote a prescription or ignored me with no diagnosis but they gave me the diagnosis and print out so I could show my family as most were names I could not pronounce. They do recommend trying the injections in your back for back pain and it has helped almost every time as they tried different procedures to see which helped me the most...Yes I strongly recommend Alabama Pain and Anastegology Clinic.

Moved my Dad from another provider
I moved my Dad from another provider who's only interest seemed to be writing prescriptions . From all that I have gather from different sources, he was well over medicated. Dr. Bennett agreed and developed a more detailed plan to treat his ailments, that reduced the amount of narcotics received. As mentioned before he is very straight forward, which is greatly appreciated.

I saw Dr. Bennett initially and when getting neck injections. He is patient, understanding and very direct which was a great combination overall for me. Some inconsistency in seeing other providers which at times was frustrating but tolerable overall. I would recommend Dr. Bennett to anyone dealing with long term pain and prefers a direct approach to options.
