Hi Gia,

In regards to finding a pain doctor, I have listed below a couple websites specific to locating pain management doctors in a given 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 suggest calling up a number of them to see if they prescribe the type of medication you are seeking to manage your pain. You may also have to ask if they are accepting new patients, as some aren't, but most generally are.

I hope the above information helps!

Regarding finding a doctor in Medford, Oregon, good luck and tell me if you find one. Im a service disabled Veteran and I live in hell. Im the past year, 10 medical professionals have told me to move out of Jackson County. It seems that in 2006, Jackson County had the highest number of prescription medication overdoses. The DEA came in and warned everyone that policies must be initiated or licenses will be pulled. I have had 2 great doctors move, 2 changed specialties, 2 were facing licencing problems and the rest 'copped-out' saying I was 'too complex'. All doctors that I've tried to get in to say that they will not take any pain patients, whether I see them for pain or not. I now go to the local methadone clinic 6 days per week. $500 a month spent to hurt myself travelling to get not enough of an inappropriate medicine which causes immediate dependence. I use chloroform and diethyl-ether so I can pass out when the pain gets too bad. Thanks a lot junkies.

I to suffer from chronic pain. I am currently in pain management. I know a Dr. that will prescribe you Oxy. how ever before I give any information on him I would llime to know if you need them for legitimate reason (chronic pain) or for recreation use or to sell. I only ask cause before this Dr. Will prescribe he will need your medical records and will make sure you actually need them before he will give them.

Bill. I am 27 I hurt my back when I was 14 and had surgery when I was 16. in June of 2013 I had an NOT and another surgery after my surgery I found out that for the last 10 Years I had scare tissue pressed up against the nerve destroying the nerve... My surgery when I was 16 was for 3 slipped disk in my lower back. And the recent surgery was for 2 slipped disk.. I am looking for a good Dr. for legitimate pain. I do not believe in getting pain meds if you don't need them because it makes it harder for us people in chronic pain to find relief... And at my age it is hard for me to find a doctor willing to help.

I suffer from severe chronic (technically never ending) migraines, fibromyalgia, a building disk, and a sciatica problem. Not to mention the IBS and the polycystic ovarian syndrome, and the joints in my hands now hurt to move. Oh, did I mention I'm 21 and have been this way since 16? I'm most definitely NOT an abuser or seller of drugs. I need a doctor who will listen to my level of pain honestly...

Hello,

I just moved to Southern Oregon from the Coast. I have an amazing Pcp and back doctor over there but I need to have a local doctor its hard to drive that far when I need to see him.

I have all my medical history just need to find a good doctor who can know the difference between some junkie and a person who needs and will soon have this scary surgery (im procrastinating) if you know the name of a good doctor I would greatly appreciate it. My email is {edited for privacy} thank you so much!

Re: Bill (# 5)

Hi. I blew a disc out in 2007, L4-L5. I was born with Spina Bifida & have scoliosis. I was diagnosed with spondylolisthesis in 2001 after a car accident. Anyway, I had to fight SAIF to get them to cover it. It took a year to get surgery. After surgery, my pain was the same as before. I had developed scar tissue that was impinging on the nerve. We went to other ways for relief. I had 4 inj's. which left me in more pain than before. Approximately 4 yrs later, I had my first Stim trial. It took SAIF over 14 months to approve it. Also, they changed the company providing the Stim. So, since it was over a year, I had to go thru another Stim trial. I have had my Stim adjusted 5 times & still can't get relief in the right spot. They will need to go back in & move the paddles to another area. It never got that far. SAIF has been screwing with me for 10 yrs. Almost every month, they don't approve 1 of my meds. Or they take a week or more to do it. Lately, it's gotten worse. They forced me to change doctors last year. No choice. They even scheduled the appointment for me & sent me a letter to that effect. After seeing this new doctor (Dr. Leppert @ pain specialists of southern Oregon) they called him & argued with him for almost 45 minutes telling him that they wanted him to cut off my oxycodone. They told him that if he prescribed it, they wouldn't approve it at the pharmacy. They also cut off my ibuprofen. They said I could pay for that myself. They said that he could prescribe a gel to replace it. Now they won't approve that either. I take 3 morphine cr 30mg a day & was taking 3 oxycodone 10mg a day for breakthrough pain. Because it takes almost an hour for the morphine to kick in & it doesn't last the whole 8 hours, I would take them between the morphine doses. Since the time he started to wean me off & took me off it altogether, I went from 198 lbs to 156 lbs in approximately 6 months. I had told the doctor many times at every appointment that I hurt so bad that I couldn't eat, I had trouble getting out of bed, it hurts to walk, it hurts to sit. On their patient worksheet, my pain level went from an average of 5-6 up to an average of 7-8. He said that the reason I had lost all the weight was that I smoke. I've smoked for 32 years. I've never lost weight like that. At one point, I weighed 227 lbs & I dieted & got down to 185. Since then I hovered between 195-200 lbs. In August we took away 1 of my morphine & he gave me 2 oxycodone a day. At my next apt, I told him that I hurt worse.

Oxycodone kicks in fast, but doesn't last that more than a few hrs. And taking the morphine every 12 hrs instead of 8 hrs was too long between doses. So we went back to the 3 morphine a day. I went to the pharmacy & SAIF wouldn't approve the whole count. They would only approve 2 a day. The same with September & October. So I kept having to call my doctor for another prescription to make it thru the month. It took him a couple days to do it. It was a 2 week count, but at 2 weeks he hadn't sent the next month's prescription in. It took him 4 days that put me in withdrawal. The same in October but it was 5 days late. I called his office & left a message that being treated like this wasn't professional & letting a patient go thru withdrawal 3 times in a month & a half was a breach of ethics & patient care. I said that I was tired of everything & felt like suing him & SAIF. I went to my next appointment with him but was taken into a room with 2 nurses & told that they had sent a letter telling me that my doctor would no longer treat me because I had threatened to sue him. Now I have no doctor. I saw my doctor when I lived in Eugene for over 7 years & my medications never changed. When I moved back down to the Rogue Valley, I still saw him for another 5 years. Previously I had never asked SAIF for reimbursement for anything. But last year I filed for 2 years worth of travel expenses because it was costing me almost $100 a month to travel up to see him. It ended up being almost $1,000. The next month was when they forced me to change doctors after seeing him for almost 10 years. And this is when they started taking away my meds. I think they're doing it to spite me, but can't prove it. So now I have lost almost half my medications & my doctor. I am supposed to get 1 refill to give me time to find a doctor, but I don't have a phone or internet to do that with. I'm at the Gold Hill library using their wifi. I gave up my license years ago because I take opiates & don't want to get a dui. I need a new doctor and I want my medications back. I'm tired of being in bed all day. I'm so tired of hurting all the time. I was told that pain management wasn't supposed to take away the pain, it was supposed to make it was supposed to make it tolerable. I'm sick & tired of just tolerating the pain. I want it back where I can get out of bed & do things. I want to be able to take better care of myself & my pets. I need a doctor that will listen to me. I want a doctor that will stand up to SAIF & not bow to their pressure because they're a state-run agency that can threaten a doctor if he won't do what they want. Can you help me please? Is there a doctor in Medford, Oregon that can help me? Thank you.

This is a question for Bill. My husband is a disabled Vet and is currently seeing a pain specialist. With his brain injury opiates are all that relieves his pain. The current doctor had him on the right dose and all was great. He was up and fund raising, doing charity. It was great, we were talking to him about simulators, even saw a neurosurgeon. Then he just started cutting his meds with no explanation, nothing. Now he doesn't want to see anyone. The pain will kill him. I do not believe his heart can take it. Please if you can suggest a Dr for him I would be grateful.

Greenberg is cool. His arrogance is amusing. Unfortunately his PA is a woman who not only abuses her power over those in pain but the control is of great importance to her. It iseems too bad Greenberg is foolish enough to believe the woman he interacts with is as kind with his patients, not true at all. To make it worse he listens when she bad mouths patients. I would not trade places with her for all the gold in the world, miserable human.

Hello Bill, I am in real trouble here. I have a congenital defect in my lower spine that I damaged further with an accident. In spite of the fact that I have never exhibited any abuse, irresponsibility, and would never divert mess. I keep my mess in a locked safe bolted to the floor. On top of this I asked at three pharmacies when first treated because the dosage seemed high. All three Riteaid, Rexall, and Bimart assured me the dosing was well within the norm. After using the medication for several years I looked at my life and realized I was over medicated. I explained this to both my primary and pain specialist and both advised I stick with the level I was on. I disagreed so reduced my least helpful meds by 100%. After awhile I had to face the fact that I still did not have the quality of life I needed. I asked my primary to help me reduce the stronger of the two meds I was on. He and I were ineffective due to the fact that he went too easy on me. I asked him to send me to the meanest pain specialist he knew and he sent me to Mark Greenberg in Ashland, Oregon. He helped me to reduce my second medication by 75% where I have remained. I decided that because I had adapted to living in pain I could probably get by on less of my break thru meds. I asked a pain specialist to help me reduce them. With the archaic, well meaning biased reduction of pain meds I have been reduced well beneath effective doses. I have gone from a moderately active woman to living in a hospital bed.

On my previous doses I did an hour regimen of stretching, yoga, core strengthening and walking daily for the last twelve years. I also throughout the day used my brain for pain management. I used breathing, meditation, self hypnosis, visualization and subliminals to additionally control my pain. My pain level is so destructive to my health I am scared. My blood pressure has doubled, I am only able to sleep every third or fourth day and have been sleep deprived for four months, for nutrition I drink smoothies since my appetite is gone, instead of being the only one in my family that rarely was sick I now have one bug or another multiple times a month. My stomach continually burns (no I don't take aspirin), I am so inactive my skin has even changed. I have aged at least ten years. I have showered once a day my entire life and now have gone 11 days without one. My immaculate home is a depressing pit. My pain specialist, Pain Specialists of Southern Oregon, is aware of the above and doesn't care. If they do it is not discernible in their behavior or my medical treatment. I don't know what to do. I only need a doctor in Oregon for three months and then moving across the country. I don't know what to do. I have been told by all who have treated me that there is no surgery or procedure to help me. My present clinic will put in a SCS which I will not risk. Don't want anything messing with my spine, spinal cord, or nervous system again unless they learn how to fix me. This is insane. I am raising three abandoned kids and my top of the line parenting is no longer there. All at once I am now truly disabled in the literal meaning of the word.

Also I am no crybaby. I raised a house full of boys as a single mom and had great success. I worked hard, gave a lot and took little . Three months after my four spinal fusions and a bone strut fused in I was rowing the Wild and Scenic Rogue River. It was painful but healed my sad soul. Being tough is a matter of pride for me. I am stunned to find myself in this position. Had I been told in the past that pain could destroy my life this way I would have not believed it. I thought I was strong enough to handle anything.
While I am no suicide candidate, for the first time I can understand how a person could give in. Another day at this level of pain seems more than I can take. Take it I do and pain or no pain I still love life. Pain is not all I have although it often feels that way.
Sorry to blather on. If you are able to help please do. Thank you.

I need help. I was born with a spinal deformity in my spine. After a bad fall roller blading I am left in pain that is destructive.
I have been totally responsible with meds for 16 years. I keep them locked in a safe bolted to floor, I have never needed early fill date, I have even asked three times to reduce my meds and did so. The last time I went to reduce meds the doctor lied to me and has me well b we low a therapeutic dose. I have gone from very active to bedridden, I only sleep every 3 or four nights, eating puts pressure on spine so at times not worth it, I cannot even do my regimen of yoga, core exercises, breathing, meditate etc. My pain level is so high I can't focus. My life has been decimated by a doctor covering his anatomy. I am extremely sleep deprived and my blood pressure has doubled. If you really know a good doctor please tell me. I am moving out of state in three months so I only need help for a few months. I do not want to go back to the high doses I was on. Just want to raise dose until it works. I you can help, please do. I am tough but worn out. Thank you.
