I need help with finding a pain management dr. that prescribes pain meds in the bellevue wa area or as close as possibe am willing to drive if necessary. Please it's almost impossible to find. I have been in pain since 2002 please any leeds greatly appreciated.
I see Dr. Paterno @ Washington Center for Pain Management. 922 S 348th St #2, Federal Way, WA 98003. 425-774-1538. He is kind, compassionate, yet very firm - they have to be. He prescribes my pain medications and you will HAVE to see him each month in order to get your refills. He also does my spinal epidural injections & that is done in Bellevue across from Overlake Hospital. I hope this information helps you and others.
no I've been having to either go to Canada or fly back to AZ
I've been in WA for a year with all CT, MRIs and all dr records and everything possible needed and extra and still can't get help
I also need one too! I been on the same medication for 2 years now! If you hear of one send my way the name to me please? I doing web search myself! If I find one what city or county your at!
Good luck!
I could use the help. Legitimate need. Have 5+yrs of records
Is there anyone around the Pullman or Spokane area that knows of a pain management Doctor, need help. Have MRIs and most things a doc would want. Tired of being miserable.
I've been trying to find one in Spokane, Washington too. Wish you alot of luck trying to find one.
Hey, im movong from az to wa soon, in the next few months, did u ever get that help? Thank Meghan
Hey, i know these r old, but im in az, and im trying to start a legal suit against the dea and the attorney and surgeon generals, bc they are the ones who are responsible for this mess. {edited for privacy}. If anyone else is interested please let me know, it's too important than to let these ppl kill us slowly this way. Thanks.
I know that I haven't received a response on my post yet.
Did u get a response? I'm in the same boat as you.
Needing a pain doctor that excepts CHPW in Spokane, Washington really bad. I suffer bad pain a lot. My primary dictor refuses to prescribe any narcotics whatsoever, even if it's in a cough syrup. I have been suffering this pain for quite a few years now.
Thank you
what is the name of the clinic?
Are there current posts here? The last few have no dates on them.
I have been on Methadone for about 20 years due to a car accident, surgery screw ups and other chronic pain illnesses. It is getting harder and harder for those who are on Methadone because most Dr. offices are doing a comparison for every 10 milligrams of Methadone that you take is equivalent to 30 milligrams of Morphine. So that means the most a Dr. will soon prescribe is 3 10mg tablets a day. If that is ok for you then I have a place you can go. They will also prescribe other meds that you need and they do believe in you as a person. They also know that it is not all in your head and that you have real pain and real issues. It helps if you have medical records and x-rays. Bring them with you. They also do the My Chart online so you can look at everything the Dr. does for you plus all paperwork, tests, notes, e-mail Dr., make appointments, etc. They are compassionate people and they are there to help. They are also willing to prescribe other pain meds due to each individual case. It is in Wenatchee, WA and it is called Confluence Health Family Physicians and their number is 509-665-6087. I hope this helps.
I am a chronic pain patient. I was crushed neck down in auto accident 6 yrs ago. Fused spine, reconstructed pelvis, joins replaced, etc. I'm disabled of course. My pain doc in Olympia WA just quit 2 days before my 30 day appt. I went into withdrawal and my body shut down. Spent Feb 2016 in hospital where they "saved" me again. I need a new pain doctor who doesn't work for the big clinics. One somewhere near Thurston County WA. Or Chehalis. Someone who cares about the quality of what's left of my life. The pain clinic I got into gave me just enuf morphine (the only drug I can tolerate) to keep me from screaming most of the time, but I am bed bound.....again. Years of hard fought for progress is being lost! I'm getting weaker, I'm losing hope. They prescribed me less than the minimum they could have and shorted me 2 days also until my next appointment. What kind of torture is this policy? I feel like a panther in a small cage pacing back and forth, dying to be free. If anyone knows of a decent caring doctor who can give me back the shadow of my former, active life I would appreciate it SO much. I don't drink, I've never even tried illegal drugs, and I've never disobeyed my pain doctors instrucions yet I'm being treated like a criminal drug addict. Anyone, please help if you know of such a miracle doctor. I cannot spend my life in bed after working so hard to walk again, make a life again.

Please check out dr naibert in Kirkland called lake wa pain management. Strict but gave me exactly what I was on previously. Depending on your risk assessment depends how many ua's a year.
I Really need help I ve been prescribed oxycodone for the last 3 mo and it has helped me with RA pain, back pain etc,but now their company policy has change can no longer prescribe scheduled narcotics and I'm currenly am on the clinic (methadone) and have been for almost 6 yrs:) I do good on the program I even get weekly "carries" which is a huge deal! My methadone Dr agrees that I should be able to continue my breakthrough pain meds,but I cannot find a dr that will continue my script, PLEASE HELP thank you!!
somewhere can u let me know who you can refer too I can't find anything last dr I think was loopy
Seattle pain is a joke and a waste of time and money. I have found Drs who will prescribe but lowered me down from 5 to 3. I did go out of country as well on one occasion and their oxycodone is beyond strong. I can help with info till you can find a pain management place being it seems they will only do a consult and give pcp recommendation on a treatment plan that your pcp should be prescribing you. Mind u I live way up in ferndale and I've travelled a lot to be semi out of pain. {edited for privacy} if you need me
