Dr. John Groner, MD

Ever felt hopeless? I have severe hip pain resulting in an inablity to walk. I have seen three orthopedic doctors with no improvement or explanation of my pain. I found Dr. Groner, and he examined me and ordered diagnostic x-rays & MRI's. I now know what is wrong with me, and I have a path forward. I highly recommend Dr. Groner.

He took the time to find , and at least so far remedy my nagging aching lower spine. So grateful

I suffered a violent fall in May of 2022. Since I had pre-existing conditions in my back and hip, several doctors passed me on. Some claimed I had no need of surgery.2 years and a whole heap of pain later, I was told I needed a Physiatrist. I found Dr. Groner on my search engine. He found all the issues causing and contributing to my pain. He did imaging not done by other doctors. Dr. Groner found I needed surgery on both my back and hip. He was compassionate, methodical and thorough. Dr. Groner referred me to 2 different surgeons in a timely manner. Those surgeons did beautiful jobs. The pain that arrested my body for 2 years is gone! I will continue to take my physical issues to Dr. Groner, and refer as many hurting people as possible.

After two decades of enduring back pain, Dr. Groner successfully alleviated my discomfort. He takes his time to throughly review all tests with his patients, ensuring they comprehend the results and are at ease with the subsequent steps. I enthusiastically endorse Dr. Groner to anyone plagued by back pain; he posses an uncanny ability to heal. Dr. Groner and his staff are a pleasure to interact with.

Dr Groner started treating my pain by explaining pain does not necessarily come from one area. He takes into consideration the body as many parts working together. Results were discovered quickly, what was needed next was explained, planned and follow up appointments were scheduled soon. I couldn’t be happier and I’m on to recovery! Thank you Dr Groner, and your staff for caring!

Dr. Groner is very knowledgeable and has the patience to help the patient understand the information that he has concerning their health issues. If he isn't positive about what ails you he is more than willing to do what is necessary to figure it out. It is nice to have a doctor that is actually helping me figure out my pain issues. I highly recommend Dr. Groner to everyone.

Dr. Groner diagnosed my problem when four other providers failed. He explained everything in the level of detail I wanted and his treatment gave me dramatic relief. I’m now healthier and stronger because of Dr. Groner. I’ve recommended him to three of my friends. Can’t praise him and his team enough!

Saw Dr. Groner with severe back pain and sciatic pain down my entire left leg. After x-rays and an MRI, I discovered that years of weight -training took a huge toll on my lower back, especially my L4. Dr. G was amazing coming up with a treatment plan. After two rounds of injections, I’m back…literally. I went from being completely immobile due to pain; unable to virtually do anything but sit, to now being back to my old self. A little smarter, with Doc’s advice, that i need to ease up in the gym and be wiser and reluctantly be cognizant of my age and that i shouldn’t lift like kid anymore…but i sure feel like i can again.Dr. G is amazing at what he does. I can’t recommend him more highly. He knows his stuff and will get you on the path to being functional again.

This is the only place I can trust, Dr. Groner, is honest, Great Knowledge, he personally deal with any treatment from begging to end. Keeping you informed of the treatment process.

I am here because of an auto injury and it was a pleasure meeting Dr Groner and meeting him. On my first visit I was able to explain the accident and injuries that took place and him taking notes verbatim logging everything in his notes and then proceeding with exam of muscle strength or weakness that I had including documenting ROM. After that, he recommended the next best procedure with X-rays and MRI’s where needed. He did not miss a beat listening to everything I talked to him about and keeping in mind a course of action because of the accident. Thank you Dr Groner for being caring and compassionate about my issues. Sincerely D Davidson

Finally...someone that listens and does the testing to do an educated diagnosis! I have dealt with daily back pain for decades, it's always been a struggle to get any kind of relief and I was usually treated like a drug seeker. Dr. Groner got me in very quickly after I was referred, did a thorough exam and ordered an MRI to get the extent of my back issues. The MRI showed pretty significant issues creating my pain. He suggested I consult with a surgeon for evaluation as to surgical treatment vs other options. The surgeon didn't feel that I was a surgical candidate and Dr. Groner discussed options with me. We agreed to try spinal injections. I've had one injection so far, it has dramatically reduced and some days completely eliminated my back pain. This is the first time in over 40 years that I haven't had significant daily pain! I highly recommend Dr. Groner, he is kind, explains clearly to make sure you understand anything he discusses with you and focuses on your pain relief.

After having seen doctors at the two main Tri-Cities Health Orgs, I was not satisfied as they only gave me the choice of risky back surgery or drugs to eliminated my low back pain. Dr Groner sent me for an MRI then did a great job detaining the issues and alternatives then came up with a third option that eliminated the pain with only a 20-minute procedure that also gave me 100% of my leg strength back that had been reduced by disc nerve impingement. I highly recommend Dr Groner over the knife wielding and drug pushing alternatives. He is definitely worth talking to as a start in pain reduction.

On and off back pain episodes since age 18. Longer cycle for pain relief in my 50’s. Muscle relaxers and ibuprofen usual prescription. Recent back pain during holidays the last straw! Found Dr Groner thru online search. Dr Groner very thorough in explaining-in non technical terms-results of an MRI, X rays and basic in office flex/strength checks. I have a path for relief-no drugs or surgery. Highly recommend Dr Groner! Great team at this clinic! A life changer! Already sent contact to co-worker having back issues.

I had seen a previous pain doctor for my back and, after a procedure had gone bad, I was nervous about needing to find a new provider. Dr. Groner was extremely understanding, compassionate & caring. He takes the time to listen to your concerns and he explains everything clearly & thoroughly. He has always discussed all my options along with the pros & cons of each & answers every question I have with understandable knowledge. One procedure I had with him I had previously had elsewhere with a horrible experience and even worse results. Dr. Groner knew I was very nervous and he did a fantastic job of calming my nerves before & during the procedure. The experience was night & day from my previous experience & my results were great. I have & will continue to recommend Dr. Groner to family & friends without hesitation.

I am very happy with Dr Goner. He is very thorough. Ge gives me all the information I need to make my own decision about the treatment

Dr. Groner likes to hear himself speak. I went to him with very serious problems with my neck, elbow and Carpel tunnel in both hands. Now one would imagine with a diagnosis of carpel tunnel in both hands I would have been scheduled for surgery... No 4 more follow up visits to hear the same story of Dr Groners findings. I struggle with his fee for the same story as he told 4 times in a row. I was under the impression when you find out. Somebody needs surgery for a condition that you would schedule them for it. Not schedule needless follow up visits to tell the same story again and again. This doctor is very disappointing. He missed his calling to be a psychotherapist.

Dr. Groner has managed to acknowledge and find the medical conditions in two visits, where other providers were unable to figure out in 2 years. He explained all of the findings and his concerns, while ensuring all of my concerns were addressed as well. He did not simply blame the pain on another pre-existing condition, but actually evaluated me. He has not taken a sit and wait approach, but is actively helping create a treatment plan for me.

I went in with major back pain, shoulder pain, hand pain. I wasn't expecting much. Dr. Groner did head to toe exams and found all my issues including a hip issue I did not know I had called a labral tear. He got me treatment early and now the pains are much better. Highly recommend.

Very professional office from the front desk to the doctor. Courteous. All appointments were timely. Excellent diagnosis. Fantastic results. Would have no problem sending any familty members to Dr Groner.

I had injured my finger while trying to give my puppy a bath. The first urgent care I tried barely checked it, and prescribed me pain medication without running any tests. Dr. Groner, however, took the time to listen to what happened and how I felt, examine my finger, order x-rays, explain to me that I had something called an avulsion fracture (little shard of bone just free-floating), and refer me to a surgeon for a splint so my body could reattach it. The most thorough and kind doctor I've ever met, highly recommend.
