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.

Receptionist is very condescending and feels privileged that they are the only game around for people with severe pain!!

I have been a chronic pain patient for 14 years, after 2 failed back surgeries. I have seen multiple doctors during that time. I now have had an inplanted pain pump for 2 years and life has been so much better. There is sometimes a wait but he spends quality time with you. He is very caring and I have done so much better under his care! Would recommend him to anyone!

Dr. Manocha is great. I am a fairly new patient. However, he has taught me so much compared to my previous office where I was just a $$$. I would wait for hours at my old office but not at Dr. Manocha's! Wait time is typically 15 minutes. He takes his time to answer all your questions which I never had that before so I appreciate that. He also was great when I needed surgery. A good bedside manner. His staff is great too. They are so warm and welcoming. Very easy to work with. I am very happy I decided to switch doctors!

I can’t get a visit because I scheduled online and no one called to confirm my appointment. I called the morning my appointment was supposed to be - no answer and no call back. One day past when I requested my appointment I called them AGAIN and have been on hold for nearly 10 minutes. Irresponsible, disorganized, and poor communication.

Dr. Manocha is one of the finest doctors I have ever known. I have been his patient since he first started in private practice and am still his patient. He is very caring and considerate of his patients and spends the time needed with each patient. I see him quite often, as I have an implanted pain pump which requires refilling. There are times when I have had to wait a fairly long time for my appointment, but I know that he is spending time with other patients not rushing them.

I feel that he really cares about you as a person and tries to find the best pain management methods for you. He explains what he is going to do, why and asks for your opinion if you want to do that or something else. He will explain a procedure, your diagnosis in whatever level of detail you wish. That is why the wait time can be long. I did recommend him to family. I got much pain relief while seeing him.

He is very caring and spends time explaining all options and any thing that out weighs the good he sees it doing he will explain. I am very satisfied with him and his staff. Some times there is a wait to see him but you have to understand he spends extra time with all of us and it is very beneficial to everyone. I have recommended him to all of my family with the same problem that I have.

I really enjoyed my initial consultation with Dr. Manocha! He was very informative and thorough in looking into my medical history! He was the first doctor to really explain what he thought the best course of action and treatment would be. He didn't insist on medications and shove me out he door. I really love my new doctor and look forward to many visits and continued relief of my chronic pain issues!! I'm so thankful for this doctor. I would absolutely recommend him to all my family & friends!

I have seen multiple doctors including orthopedic, neurology and other pain management specialists since multiple surgeries over the past 14 years. Dr Manocha has by far been the most attentive and effective physician I have worked with to manage my pain. His office staff are very efficient and pleasant. I have been seeing Dr Manocha for 4 years and I am on less medication and my pain is better managed than it has ever been. I would absolutely recommend Dr Manocha to anyone with severe chron

Dr Manocha from the very first visit took all the time that was needed to find out the best treatment for me. I was not blown off that there was nothing wrong & got to the problems of each of my needs. I have received epidurals that made me feel like a brand new person even though they did not last for ever it was fantastic to feel so good. I have never met a Dr like him he not just hand out pain medicine & send you on your way, he gets to the bottom of the problem & fixes it.

Absolutely the WORST pain management physician ever... Does not care about patients or quality of life...only worried about getting your money. Office staff isn't even willing to file or work with insurance when they request additional information.

Dr wanted to use my personal insurance and would not use my workers comp insurance now i have very large bills for nothing. he also wanted to do surgery on my back when i no longer have those nerves in my back i already had them removed. he is very happy to give his friends his patients for the sole purpose of there future incomes and personal gain. this guy is in this field for himself not the people he treats.
