Darn it. Why can't we be allowed to contact each other? I too need my medical records and I would like the number !!!! I'll tell you his P.A "Dr mike" joined blue valley surgical center in overland park. I ran into him at mcdonalds..He gave me h us card, so I went there. They would not give me what fr. Peterson was..so I am suffering ...I am so angry.. Was dr. Peterson wrong giving me what he did? It helped ALOT Or is the new place not caring?? I didn't know it Was on the court docket. I'll look it up. One thing helps though. I went to the pharmacy where I got all my med.s from and had them print out my prescription records.. it helped with getting SOME of my prescribed medications. .at least they knew I wasn't lying with no medical records to back me up. I don't think I could bring myself to sue him. But I never even got the letter if where to write to ask! Thanks for the good info.

I agree he was so nice, he honestly cared about his patients. I have no Idea where he went. He was supposed to sign on with blue valley surgical center/weight loss/pain management. . But i have a feeling he wouldn't be a very good fit. Their whole practice...not one competent or professional nurse, they have medical assistants who act like dr.s. they actually are writing ALL the scripts....dr/PA. glances at them and signs. am currently going there. Not happy with it. But better than nothing.

Where is Dr simon? And who is the nurse practitioner? I understand about "demanding medications" ( it makes you look like a "drug seeker". I am trying to get away from the one I'm seeing now (faulkner) but I need a replacement . (With medicare) did you need a referral for dr. Simons P.A. ? Sorry so many questions. ..... kind of desperate.

dr simon is at college and antioch. his nurse practitioner is Donna. she has been open to trying different things. now using this pain cream from a compounding pharmacy. helps if you have pain in one or two localized areas...but hard to use when pain is all over

I believe virginia. I Googled him to see. My current dr. (Faulkner) says he will no longer take on any more of Peterson former patients. He said that we were all way over prescribed narcotics and it was "criminal" that he got us all hooked, then just left the state.i had a terrible time finding a dr. Not that tty he one I have now is "great", but I am grateful to even be able to see him and get part of my previous medications. .

I wish I could help . I'm seeing Faulkner too. He is not even taking his patients anymore. I told I felt like I did something wrong. He said no, the dr. Did something wrong by over prescribing you meds. I know there is a place up in the city that advertises they give meds. But they won't take insurance. And dr Peterson was in financial trouble because v of the clinic lost so much money. And I Googled him. He is in virginia. I think that is also where he did his residency. Good luck

Sorry I forgot to answer something. Faulkner will give injections. I don't know any thing about radio frequency but if it isn't a narcotic you shouldn t have trouble finding that either. Faulkner wasn't so bad last visit when he actually sat down and talked to me. If you go in there with all your medical reports and MRI he would probably give you something. I think maybe I am better off not taking as much as Dr Peterson gave me, if only because of something happening (like it did) and trying to find a new dr . There isn't one that will (that I found anyway), who will give us the same thing. .I have a feeling if there are dr.s here like that. Their patients are keeping quiet, too many ppl. = the dr. Under scrutiny and he or she leaves...

I sure would like yo know where you found another dr.i too was dr P patient. I really liked him. And yes he was compassionate. The problem is I didn't get a referral and only found one pain clinic I could go too. They treat the patients like criminals, in fact I think they hate us...but because it's hard to find a dr. Who will prescribe certain pain meds...we just take it. Please tell who you are seeing. When you are suffering it's hard to be charitable. Thanks.

yes Kindness, can you please share ... i can even give you my email address if you feel more comfortable doing that.
My current pain dr refuses to prescribe Oxycodone in any form. I am barely getting by on the hydrocodone er.
I am writing a letter to my current doctor because no one in his office has time to listen to me. i get 5 min of his nurse writing stuff down and handing me a script. telling me to try arch supports. i am in horrible pain all day and if i cant get some serious help quick...well...you all know what i mean

For me oxycotin has been the best, with oxycodone for breakthru pain. However as the above postings go I lost my doctor as well. Seems every time a good doctor comes around the DEA finds a reason to get rid of them. Been battling chronic nerve pain for 16 continued years never has gone away. KC area where Dr. P was my doctor and no longer is. If anyone knows of a KC pain doctor please let me know this last doctor refused to concur with Dr. P's treatment and went into full blown graves disease. A true story of a battle of health.

can you please tell me who you got for a new doctor. Dr. P was great with me as well. He even sent me 3 full months of DO NOT FILL UNTIL such date. A great guy and yet I know some of the details of what happened. The girls did not fill out paper work in getting his money. The owner of the building stop him from renewing it. Somehow from all of this I still think the DEA set this whole thing up just for a huge body slam to us chronic pain patients. Something smells about this whole deal since I was a lifetime Realtor in the area. So please help me if you can with another Doctor. thank you

I am so sorry for all your going through I completely understand. I am also confused. I did bring all my rx records to the new clinic , I showed 5 hem what I'd been prescribed. I was seeing Dr faulkner and his PA "dr mike". At the weight loss surgical center, and pain management center. Every single appt. It's lower lower my meds. The very first one it was just my break through pain meds from 30mg 6 a day. ..to 4 x a day. Then my E.R went from 60 mg 3 x a day . Down to 30mg. 3 a day. Now after my last appt. I Was Told They'd Leave them where they were. Then P.A comes in and says yo expect my breakthrough meds to change next mo. I'm so sick of it. It's like they think I'm dr P patient so of course I must be over prescribed. I don't think even once has anyone asked me how I'm feeling. The PA guy loves to tell me every time. "Your taking dosages for cancer patients" I don't have cancer Thank you God (I mean that). And my MRI. "Only" shows arthritis and a bulging disc. I am on disability ssdi. Because I worked years and years with my back plus carried over 400 lb.s on my 5'5 frame. Gave birth several times with NO ANESTHESIA. Give me a break. I do know pain. ...very well in a years time I dropped over 200 lb.s. I'm pretty sure that put me out of whack too. I just want a compassionate dr. Who will listen to me. And not make assumptions. Why work in pain management if you hate your patients? On top of all my pain returning with a vengeance. ..I'm suffering withdrawals every time they lower my dose. I feel so helpless. ..and hopeless. I thought really really hard before I agreed to go on the "heavy stuff"... but truthfully it gave me a life back. I play with my grandkids, I work, my husband and I can go out now. I couldn't do any of those things before. Now.. who has found a DR. Who cares in the Overland Park/ Kansas City area? Anyone ????

I will not give out the current Doctors name for the simple fact that this is a good case of medical malpractice. I kept very good notes and the lies were simply false. Dealing with a daughter n law who has cancer the doctor knew this and warned them to keep all my meds the same. A very difficult doctor and did everything she asked of me. Yet she has never yet complied with our agreement and my health care. In fact my health care has gone down each and every month and kept notes on my health warnings to my Doctor. Right now legally they are still my doctor. I can only pray they will understand all the troubles I am having with so many diseases, continued pain of course and lets add on some cancer where she had flat lied twice and told this Doctor that my anxiety is thru the roof yet they keep taking me down. Anxiety way up and pain of course goes way up. Please understand it is a wait and see for me right now. Even my wife has problems and going to the same place and they may stop as well. I do not like being LIED too. It makes no sense for a professional to lie when they know it is easy to catch them in the many lies.

This posting is for VERWON. Did you really win Vern ? Look at what you did to just a small sample of patients in the very best city in America. All you did is collect a pay check from the DEA or whoever and put people's lives in jeopardy. Betting you never did a hard day's work in your life. Because if you are from the Johnson County area I would know who you are. Something smells in this entire practice of Dr. P. Who was Sarah ? She sure walked like an agent and never seen her do anything. Why was the pc's always going down and some nerd comes in and downloads the info. This I witness myself. Knew something was wrong because Dr. P is only a handful of great pain management doctors we have in Johnson County. So who won in this BS Vern.

ELSTEVEO, this is for you. What else can you tell us about the DEA.and Dr. P ? I miss him so much. He honestly cared, he listened to you. Now I just went on for my Monthly visit at blue valley. And found out they fired dr. Faulkner!!! And basically cleaned out the entire "team". I kind of wonder if it had anything to do with the assistants writing all the prescriptions...I mean I to lid one of them I was nauseated andc she wrote out at script for Phenergan ..the dr wasn't even in the room ...then he comes in. ..makes me feel like shi* cuz my high levels of meds. And i have serotonin syndrome my brain only thinks I'm in pain. We'll duh! My brain is lying to me. So they cut me some more. From 30 mg to 20 mg. For breakthrough pain. Every time I go there I cry in the car. They make me feel that bad. I am afraid to go anywhere else, they are always talking about "dismissing" patients.
