This is based on the Lacey office and doctor Burkley. I initially gave them 5 stars I've seen them 3 times the first time I've seen them was to discuss my chronic pain issues and all my back issues. It was the initial appointment and they were great, second time I got a few pain pills and he would monitor me. No offer of anything else just pills, ok fine i dont like pain meds but will take them when i absolutely need to and i actually had expired ones i had brought with me and turned into him this last visit. I was supposed to come back for a recheck from the 2nd visit however I didn't make it back because I ended up getting pancreatis from a bad gallbladder and was given pain meds due to the pancreatis and had been very ill from that add in a few deaths in the family and I just did not make it back for another follow up. when I finally was able to come back which was last month, July of this year he was not friendly, hes not a friendly doctor anyways he has an unfriendly demeanor and that's fine I got along with him regardless, but he really didn't do anything or offer anything. I asked him if he could get me an MRI as felt like my back had gotten worse And we discussed that briefly and then he kinda said okay I will get a hold of you and out he went. it's been a month and I just called to see what was going on and apparently there's nothing more they can do for me or my pain. But heres the thing, they havnt done anything for me anyways beside give me a few pain pills. I did not ask for pain meds this last appt when I came back i asked to be reevaluated as my back feels worse and it had been a long time since anyone had did an mri to see if it had progressed. But they didn't offer me any alternatives, no lumbar injections etc they just said sorry we cant help u anymore. Well u didnt help me in the 1st place except give me drugs. Thats it no alternatives and doc Burkley you sir are rude and condensing and should not work in a field that should atleast possess some compassion for those of us with chronic pain.
Did u ever think we are often out of it because we are chronically tired from lack of sleep due to pain? No u just assume we are all drug seekers.
Shame on you Im absolutely disgusted with you and this place and will make sure to share that with many.
I do not recommend them anymore.
The whole new personnel is so refreshing. From Jessie at the front desk...professional and kind, to Amanda who took my history, who was a pleasure and Dr Cheung, a good listener and my favorite Doc Ever!!!
In two visits I’ve had positive experiences with Dr. CHEUNG. The staff was friendly, the waiting area was clean, and the doctor took the time to listen to my concerns, providing thorough explanations and guidance. Overall, it was a professional and caring environment that made my visit comfortable.
The people here are great. The treatments they offer are beyond what other pain clinics offer. They truly want to help you. They listen to your concerns and treat you with respect. I have never felt like I'm ignored ir treated poorly.
I recommend this practice and all the wonderful people that work there whole heartedly. I came into this office in so much pain I was unable to even make my own bed and was having trouble walking. I had a plan to get my life back and they were 100% on board. They listened to me and helped me with my back problems first. I now am pain free in my back for the first time in over a decade. We are going to tackle my hip problem next. I know that they will help me get back to the lifestyle I want. I can't say enough good things about these people and the wide variety of help they have available to get patients better. They truly do care about their patients.
I have degenerative disc disease and Anesis has helped me for the last 3 years navigate different treatment plans to get the best results possible. I'm happy to say that today was my final visit unless I start experiencing symptoms again. In December I had a spinal stimulator implanted which has reduced my pain by 90%. I don't have to take pain medication any more and I don't have to think about if a certain movement will cause shooting pain in my back or leg. I just have to remember to recharge the stimulator every couple days to keep it on. I highly recommend Anesis if you are looking for a solution for your pain. I think the biggest barriers comes from what insurance wants to cover, but they helped navigate through all the options and prerequisites needed to get my treatment where it needed to be. I am forever grateful to return to a normal pain free life.
I was crippled with back pain for many years as construction took the best of me. A couple of strokes later my hip and shoulder got severely damaged from the fall and the pain was so intolerable to where my music playing/recording was put on hold indefinitely. Making visits to my pain doctor every month religiously to get medicated didn’t improve my life one bit. I was very skeptical to actually find a doctor that cared and not just kept handing me pills for the next 30 years. Over a year ago we found Dr Harstrom from Anises pain management in Tacoma, which I got to know and trust very much. After a radio frequency ablation that was determined to be the best for me, it helped me improve greatly.
For anyone out there that wants to actually improve your life and not just fill up on toxic medication, please consider her vast knowledge and professional expertise to help you get your life back. Dr Harstrom really cared to improve my life and not just to keep me as a patient. So please give yourself a chance to know her and how she could help you. I’m so convinced you would too thank yourself you did.
I have been being seen at Anesis Pain & Spine Center now for about 3 years. I have to say, I have never been treated unkindly or indifferent. I can count on all of the Physicians at Anesis to take care of me, and I believe they Really Do Care. One time I had an appointment, I was coming from Bellevue to Tacoma I was over 45 mins late…. The Doctor Stayed and waited for me because she knew I was coming from Bellevue, and Traffic As a matter of fact I have an appointment today for injections . Compassionate Doctors, and Staff I don’t know what I would do without you guys????❤️???? I would easily give them. 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank You Anesis.. T Chambers
