Dr. Avner Griver, MD

Cares more about billing Medicare than actually utilizing modern medicine that actually works.

Be aware of other issues you may have that will be missed here. When injections don't work maybe he should look at something else going on and refer you for appropriate treatment.

I highly recommend Dr. Griver. He is a compassionate doctor that genuinely cares for his patient and their needs. He is easy to talk to and actually listens because he truly cares. The staff at Dr. Griver’s office are just as caring and kind as he is especially his PA who talked to me at length prior and the nurse who helped him during my procedure and I have been pain free since my injections!!!

Unlike many other reviews Dr. Griver isn't all about shots. He treats the condition in front of him. Clearly if you have arthritis pain than he is going to try the most minimally invasive procedure just like other doctors. Then later there's other options, but he knows that opiates are generally not for long term use as they simply aren't as effective as they once were and you need more and more to treat the same pain. If your going to go to Dr. Griver with the intention of being on opiates without establishing a patient doctor relationship than go elsewhere. Please don't leave a bad review when you don't get what you want. You get what you need with Dr. Griver and that's a doctor who is going to listen to your problems, get the proper treatment ordered, do right by you as a patient, and support you in your struggles.

I had excruciating sciatic nerve pain. Dr. Griver made the correct assessment and then after a series of injections I got complete resolution of my pain.

he was using a mri that was 5 years old playing "pin the tail on the donkey" with my spine 2 times before telling me we should get another mri..wow I said that but I guess the patient isn't heard.. travel out of the area beware!!! u were warned!

This Dr is all about shots that don't work! If you have an emergency or change to your condition you get to see his assistant she is horrible. He doesn't see you unless he is stabbing you with a needle

Easy to talk to. Listens to you, and never makes you feel rushed. Explains in depth what his suggestions are and does not pressure you. Addressed my pain issues without medication which is exactly what I wanted. Process of having my nerves burned in my back has given me a whole new life without the pain I've been having for 10 years. Wish I found him sooner! Staff is friendly and always willing to accommodate you.

Dr Griver is probably the best doctor I have ever met, he is compassionate, he gives ample time to examination, explaining the diagnosis, the options and to treatment as required. He is very good at what he does. He is always available and will even call back to see how his patients are doing the day after the procedures. He has even called back on weekends. I would never chose any other Doctor.

Dr Griver was recommended by my regular Md for fibromyalgia pain. After following his recommendations, my pain is noticably reduced, and I find myself able to be so much more active. I highly recommend Dr Griver to anyone dealing with chronic pain! His recommendations for me have been spot on and I can't express how grateful I am! Be ready to do your part, and good luck.

I have been with Dr Griver for about 7 years now. I followed him from the practice he was in to his own practice when he left. I know he listens to what I have to say and councils me about medications and treatment.

So impressed with Dr Grover and his abilities, that when he left the practice to open his own office, my husband and I followed the Dr to his new practice. Have been patients of Dr Griver since 2009, and don't want to see another pain management Dr. He will keep trying things until he finds the best solution for his patients.

Outstanding. I was in agonizing pain he addressed it until it was resolved.
