Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Fantastic doctor. Cares for his patients, understands pain and is a great advocate. Dr. Straus always ask how I’m doing, listens and supports me in living my best life in spite of pain. My back is bad, it’s inoperable, I don’t now how I’d function without his guidance. and care. Highly recommend.

God Sent Physcian
I've been seeing Dr. Straus for over 8 yrs now. He made a huge difference in my pain managment. He is not one of those doctors who think's you are a paycheck, you are a human being to him & trust me, that really matters. I had a pain doctor who had me way, way over medicated & I almost lost my life...I am so thanful that Dr. Straus is my pain specialist .

This doctor treated me as a person, had my medical records, and listen to me. He took his time with me. ONLY if any painmangement doctor truly understands pain can they really help you. I was treated like a number with the doctor I saw before and was extremely unhappy and suffered greatly. He has a plan already in motion.... THATS A PROFESSIONAL, !!! The ladies in the office were very polite and nice to every single person. I watched and listen to them with other people. How they spoke to others on incoming phone calls. Professional across the board !!! Dr.Straus was prepared, he did his homework ahead of time. I look forward to his treatment plans and having some quality of life.

Dr. Straus is one of the best pain specialists in Northwest Georgia. He genuinely cares for his patients, and is not judgemental about the kinds of medication that people legitimately need to treat their condition. We have some wonderful pain specialists in Northwest Georgia, but I would recommend him over everyone else!
