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.

Dr Gheith is the most caring and compassionate
Dr Gheith is the most caring and compassionate doctor. He is so very professional and smart. He has taken such good care of my family in the past and now is taking care of me and he really listens to his patients and truly cares about what you say! He looks till he finds the medical procedure that will help you most and then proceeds from there. I have known Dr Gheith for 9 years now and I recommend him highly, he is my savior and my past families!! I don’t know how to say thank you enough to Dr Gheith!! You and Mighty T are super heroes!!! I will sing your praises to everyone that I see!!! :)

Caring Dr. who takes his time with his patients
Dr. Gheith is the first Dr. I've been to in a long time that truly seemed to care about my health and pain issues. He took his time with me, unlike other Dr.s who rush in and out like it's a cattle call. He was caring and had taken the time to look into my medical history. He and his staff were amazing!

Went to this doctor on high dose opioids. He was kind, thoughtful and straight forward. He does not prescribe opioids. I found out the bad reviews regarding this office are from people who want high dose opioids. Thank God I didn’t pay attention to the bad reviews. He’s a great doctor with a great team. Don’t let the opioid addicts fool you with their bad reviews! I’m sending my family and friends!

I was referred to this doctor by a friend. His staff is friendly and his bedside manner is exceptional. He is the most thorough doctor I have seen in YEARS. If you are looking for opioids - don't waste your time, however, if you are looking for a caring, thoughtful and thorough doctor - this is the RIGHT DOCTOR! He is clearly years ahead of his colleagues and I highly recommend him to my friends and family all the time. I hope this helps anyone looking for pain relief!

I as well loved Dr. Gheith, received a few injections for my neuropathy in 2018, he was great! I was seeing him in the Festus office until he opened up the Chesterfield office. With my work schedule I was no longer able to meet his hours in Festus and Chesterfield was way to far to drive. The one thing that bothered me about him is every time I went to see him he tried pushing That nerve stimulator on me, which I didn’t want at the time because I was still working and there was a weight limit for lifting. Since then, I have tried to get an appointment with him in 2021. Again, I couldn’t get an appointment at the Festus location because he was in Chesterfield. Sooo, Since he has a new doctor working with him, I asked if I could see him. I was told by the receptionist that Dr. Gheith didn’t like patients to see another Dr. in the same office. But said she would ask, I never heard back from anyone. I would like to go back to Dr. Gheith but it seems they don’t want to see me.

DR. GHEITH IS AN AWESOME, CARING, THOROUGH, AND VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE DOCTOR! Was recommended to Dr. Gheith from my primary because of persistent pain from sciatica & a fall that injured my right lower back & leg. Suffered for 9 months of horrible pain prior to seeing him, managed some pain with opioid prescriptions & strengthening with physical therapy. Physical therapy helped & I continue to go. After the first visit with Dr. Gheith, he was able to pinpoint I had nerve damage & recommended an EMG & nerve conduction study at a physiatrist to confirm the location of damage. After seeing the Physiatrist (excellent), it was confirmed the location of the nerve damage was just as Dr. Gheith suspected. He scheduled an Epidural Spinal Injection for me at his Festus office. He explained the procedure to me beforehand, answered all questions & concerns I had. During the 5-minute procedure, he put my mind at ease & carefully monitored me. Thankful to him for giving my pain-free life back!

I went to Dr. Geith for sciatic nerve pain. My Primary sent me there because he didn't want to give me more opioids for my severe pain. Dr. Geith said that don't prescribe opioids but that he would take care of my problem. The steroid shot in my back did nothing to for my nerve pain and neither did the Gabapentine he prescribed. I am grateful my primary gave me a months supply of oxycodone or I couldn't have went through 7 physical therapy session which didn't help. I finally saw a neurosurgeon and had surgery. I had a ruptured disk and a large fragment was pinching my sciatic nerve. The surgeon removed the fragement and it was almost immediate relief. Before you choose a pain management specialist ask them if they prescribe opioids. If not find another pain management specialist.

I went to Dr. Gheith to treat a herniated disc. His meds and treatments didn't help with my condition.He did refer me to a surgeon that I think did a good surgery. I had other back pain to address but he didn't want to continue,or his nurse just wasn't telling him what I was telling her. They just said ok your fixed good luck. His nurse seemed to be uninterested at times about my issues.

Dr. Gheith is the best Pain Management Doctor that I have seen over the course of 20+ years. (I have probably been seen by at least 5 others) Very caring, slow and gentle plus talks you thru while and during a spinal injection. He has great empathy along with all of his staff. He listens carefully to your issues and you are never rushed during routine visits. Appointment times hardly ever require a wait. Highly recommend him for your pain needs.

- he is a pain mgmt doctor that doesn't want to manage your pain. un - he doesn't listen when visiting for an appointment - unwilling to adjust meds based on effectiveness This doctor is very frustrating. I do not recommend seeing him at all! There are too many other good pain management doctors.
