Anyone with experience with these? There are several locations around Houston. They intrigue me as their staff includes MD's and chiropractors along with anesthesiology for procedures. I am looking for minimally invasive. I re ally do not want injections. Chiropractic adjustment. Therapy. And yes god forbid when it is bad, a pain pill.
Since they have chiro I assume they do not immediately jump to steroid injections. I don't want to be that guy. Nor do I want to be MS Contin guy.
I want to find a decent place. I feel dirty just typing this. "Pain management" and I see trailer houses, Marvin the Martian t-shirts, and babies running around in diapers only.
Tiger Fred has replied to one of these and mentioned a Dr. White. I looked her up. She's in Sugarland. Fred mentioned she doesn't really do meds. Does she only do injections. This shite is for the birds.

Why not injections? They worked for me, zero pain pills.

How long have you been hurting, and what other providers have you seen for your condition?

Any practicing D.O.'s in the area ... Ones that do manipulative therapy?
It's a chiropractor who can prescribe any medications or a MD who can do adjustments

I think the main thing would be researching the docs who work in the clinic--are they anesthesiologists or physiatrist, or just family med docs who are chasing the $.
I would suggest a pain management doc affiliated with a local medical center/university. Much more legit than someone in a strip mall.
