Just wanted to see if you ended up finding help..here's my story..What am I supposed to do if I'm a patient of a pain management doctor 100 miles away, with no car. I just recently moved to San Benito county and of course I don't know anybody I'm in pain as well as withdrawals I'm only prescribed 60 a month and I run out way less then a month's worth ..my doctor says I'm too small to get more right now I take about 4\5 a day and anything else with (Tylenol) makes me sick..I don't trust anybody I heard about the prop 215 act and I need some help!! San jose,gilroy, hollister,CALIFORNIA is close to me but not much public transportation so getting around can get expensive..HELP!

Hi Scott,

I may not have a doctor I can refer you to, but I can provide you with a couple links that may be of service to you in locating pain management doctors in your general area.

All you have to do is input your city or zip code for narrowed results:
{link removed because site no longer exists}

You can give this other page a try too if you come up with different results for some reason or another:
wellness.com/find/pain%20management%20specialist

Many of the results you find (in one or both of the links above) also list a phone number for that specific doctor; I'd consider calling up a number of them to see if they are accepting new patients; some aren't, but most usually are.

Unfortunately, no one can know ahead of time what a doctor is or is not willing to prescribe, as that is based on the doctor's discretion and not solely on someone else's previous appointment.

Some advice I can give you is to not specifically ask for any 'specific medication' when you see a new doctor. Make sure to transfer or take a copy of all your medical records with you. Then, the best approach is to discuss up front and honestly what has or hasn't worked for you in the past. Most doctors will take it under consideration and hear you out if you approach them in this manner. I believe a lot of patients don't get the medication they need because they are approaching the doctor in such a needy way that they are being viewed as addicts and not patients. So as awkward as that may seem, it is something to consider...

I hope this info helps. Good luck on your search!
