My medical career started in the third grade. We were given a picture of a heart with 4 chambers, a right and left lung, and channels connecting them all. I remember it as if it were yesterday; I colored the blue for the channel sending blood to the heart and then traveling to the lung, changed it to red, sent it back to the heart and then out to the body.
I thought that was the coolest thing I had ever seen. And on that day a little girl in Mt. Holly, NC decided she would be a doctor. During my Anesthesiology residency, it was mandated that every resident had to rotate through the Pain Clinic. Ugh. Who wants to deal with pain every day? Well it ended up that I did.

I have been going to Dr Eller for 9/10 years now (hit by a dump truck in 2011) her and her team have ALWAYS listened to anything I have thrown at them over the course of my care. They have been very thorough and not just reactive to my medical needs, but proactive when going into my busy season and might be traveling extensively. I of course am very conservative with treatment, so do not feel I am a red flag patient. Being honest, flexible and open minded is a must to ensure a successful Dr /Patient relationship. I highly recommend them!

I have been a patient here for 5+ years without complaint. I have had 9 major orthopedic surgeries and my condition cannot be "cured" I find the staff to be empathetic and sincere in their efforts to make me as comfortable as possible. . I have spent hours in their offices and I have never heard other patients discussed. This staff is highly professional. My ability to make this judgement is based on my service as an orthopedic isolation nurse in the USAF Nurse Corp.

I have to say that I do not see how they can call themselves pain management. Have not managed my pain. They absolutely could care less about me and how I feel. Nothing I said was taken seriously. There is zero urgency. I bet they all talk and laugh about their patients that are suffering. Sadists. All they seem to care about is the money......not providing relief. I have wasted a year going there and I am just as miserable today as my first office visit. "Phone answerer" Heather is so incompetent it is laughable. They should drug test this person. Quite a racket they got going on and....perhaps

This was the worst experience I've had with a health care "professional." I won't even call her a doctor. I have severe Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Fibromyalgia, and Spinal Stenosis. On my first visit she told me to take Tramadol (extended release...what a joke) and set an appointment for an MRI that showed I have degenerative disc and Spinal Stenosis. Now with that being found she signed me up for Epidural Shots that would line her pockets $$$$ pretty good and at the same time...hit or miss if these non FDA regulated toxins would even help. So the 2nd visit she informed me BCBS Insurance would
