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.

The compassion and care that Dr. Sneddon has given to my mother has been fantastic. Plus he has a good sense of humor.

A Plus from A to Z!
Dr. Sneddon and his marvelous team have made having any needed procedures comfortable and simple for me. They also have always given me needed information with great kindness. All visits with Dr. Sneddon gave my husband and me the opportunity to see not only his great expertise but also his amazing compassion. Top notch all around.

Spinalcord Stimulator Trial
Dr Sneddon, Angel, Mel, and Jess did my procedure. I was comfortable and was talked to during the whole procedure. My comfort was their concern all the way through and they worked together like a well oiled machine with a big heart for my care. Trial is great so far, looking forward to my followup visit in a week.

Pain relief, finally!
Dr. Sneddon is remarkably good at what he does. A whole new way to treat chronic pain. I had intracept procedure that was surprisingly effective. I am amazed at how easy it seemed to eliminate pain immediately. Easy because of training that may be the way of the future. For four years I had uncurable back pain, nothing worked.Because of Medicare rules, I will need another surgery to eliminate my pain entirely. They limit to 2 vertebrae at a time. The two I had were a success. I can forsee this procedure being able to help cancer patients and many other painful conditions that are disabling now. Thank you so much for letting me enjoy my retirement again.

Amazing Doctor for my Back and Tailbone
When I first met and had my first appointment with Dr. Sneddon he really listened to me about my lower back and tailbone issues. I was having extreme pain for years on my lower back and sciatica. I also, fell down cement stairs and injured my tailbone. Dr. Sneddon really listened to me and my concerns, he started doing injections. My back feels so much better! My tailbone is still taking its sweet time, but I’m at 75-80% better. He is an amazing doctor, listener and knows what he’s doing. I’ve recommend Dr. Sneddon to my friends and family members. He also, has amazing staff and they get back to you quickly when you leave a message. If I can give him a 10 Star review I would!!

Saved My Life from Pain
Doctor Sneddon Freed me from the horrors of Opioid Dependence: Dr. Sneddon was the first Doctor to correctly diagnose my larger problem as Opioid overuse. And began a treatment plan right away to gradually reduce my use of opioids. And he did so with a less than eager patient in me, who just wanted continued use of oxy to dull the pain. But Dr. Sneddon went forward reducing my prescription gradually each month. During the first several months, there were some difficult times for me, as I was now living on fewer pain pills, but by the end of the first year, I could see the progress and bought totally into Dr. Sneddon’s plan. By the end of the second year, I was 100% free of oxycodone use and have continued free to this day. Dr. Sneddon’s concern, expertise, and care have given me back my life. I have been opioid free now for two years, and enjoy better health than I have in 10 years. Although “retired” I am now working again, and have a positive outlook on life again.

CRPS Treatment Amazing Results
I was Diagnosed with CRPS in my hand. I had lost over 80% of the ability to move my fingers. During my consultation he really explained everything to us and recommended a Stellate Ganglion Block, a series of 3 each one 1 week apart. I have now gained the use of my hand, almost to full range. He listens, and is very intelligent. BEST beside manner and really cares about his patients and there outcomes. Thank you Dr. Sneddon!!!!! James Briggs

Can't say enough good!
After forty years of suffering, the last four being the worst, Dr. Sneden and his staff were the first to recognize my cause of lower back pain and offer relief. The particular problem is called a Modic change in the vertebrae. Dr. Sneden and his staff took the time to explain and discuss the cause of the pain and how it can be reduced (or eliminated). Dr. Sneden is one of only three doctors in all of Idaho who offer this treatment presently. While I have not received 100% pain relief, I do feel I am 85% - 90% pain free, and I can do so many more activities now that I could not prior to the procedure (Intracept). To say Thank You seems so insufficient.

I was a hot mess after falling down the stairs. Dr Sneddon was so kind and gentle. He listened to all of my complaints and came up with a care plan that made sense to me. My pain is gone and I am back to my usual activities. I am so grateful for his patience and dedication to patient care.

I highly recommend Dr Nathan Sneddon for pain management. Especially for lower back pain. Dr Sneddon took the time to explain what he saw from the MRI and to discuss treatment options. Dr. Sneddon treated me and as of my follow up appointment I am virtually pain free.
