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 a former patient trying to locate Dr Growney!!
Dr. Growney….please, please contact me. I desperately need to talk to you about my procedures that I received from you.

Simply Excellent!
I very rarely leave reviews, if ever, but today I was so touched And blessed I couldn’t resist. Just had surgery today and Dr. Growney was the anesthesiologist taking care of me. Between him and his amazing team I felt I was placed under a GREAT group of hands. This was my very first OR visit ever so I was hesitant and overwhelmed by the fear of the unknown. However, they really made me feel safe and cared for. I could see how genuine he is right through his eyes, and even his mask. Lol. I can’t say the world of difference that this made for me today. May God bless this doctor and his team. Thank you Dr.Growney.

I miss Dr Growney
I saw him for many, many years. I was recently in an accident. I need pain management again. I'm VERY upset to hear he's not there. He was genuinely concerned about me. With all his patients, he remembered my dogs. That meant a lot to me...where are you working now Dr G....I'll go there!!!

I have had lower back problems since age 14. Dr. Growney has provided me with by far the best temporary relief than all the other doctors, surgeons, chiropractors, etc. He is easy to talk to and shows interest in helping me and in the five visits to date he has come thru every time. My quality of life has dramatically improved since he took over the other doctor who was doing injections. BTW, the other doctor gave me good results. Dr. Growney's method does provide very good results. I hope he outlives me!

My visits with Dr Growney are always great visits. When I leave I'm in much better shape than when I arrived. He's a great Doctor and a good man. If you have problems with chronic pain he can help if anyone can.

I have seen Dr. Growny now three times. I have received injections all three. The first one and the last one have worked great. The second wasn't helpful. However, Dr. Growny worked to find something that would work for me. He assured me that "back surgery is not going to be an option. We will do everything we can to keep you our of surgery." I have every confidence that he will do exactly that.

Have been a patient of Dr. Frowned for several years and he has always taken time to listen to me and understands my pain. Great bedside manner well as knowledgeable about my conditions. I get quarterly injections and he "nails" me in the right spot every time. His staff is pleasant and goes the extra mile to meet my needs.if I can't get in to him immediately the PA is always available in a pinch.

I began with Dr. Growney a few year ago because my pain had grown so much that I was barely able to walk or participate in life with my kids who were young at the time. Since beginning my treatments I have been able to enjoy life again, work and go back to college. He is not only knowledgeable but he also is ready to listen and learn from his patients. I feel like I am part of the team in managing my pain with he and his staff.
