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.

Waste of time, money, and medschool training
Save yourself the visit on this quack. My mom was referred to her for pain managent prior to knee replacement, Trampota fought tooth and nail to delay and prevent any sort of treatment and to squeeze every red cent she could out of her. The first thing my mom communicated was that steroid injections DO NOT work on her, and that's exactly what she received. During the procedure the pain made my mom scream, earning her an immediate screaming beratement from this poor excuse for a doctor. My dad wasn't allowed in for the procedure (major red flag) and if he had been, she would've heard firsthand what a disgusting piece of human refuse it takes to treat a patient in pain this way. Lager my mom was treated to, you guessed it, more beratement for being unhappy that she was lied to and dragged through appointment after worthless appointment. This doctor is a horrific waste of medical training, period.I hope this review saves others not only time, but money and most importantly pain.

Worst experience in my 50 years.
Took 3 hours to get seen the first time, then I had to pay for a series of video calls and make needless exams, and finally, she did the wrong procedure on me. This is because she talks nonstop and does not listen. When I dared to complain, I was berated like a child. Do yourself a favor and avoid this one.If I could leave zero stars, I would.

Awful!
Save yourself pain, and time and go anywhere but here!! The staff is incompetent and the doc is always in a mad rush and doesn’t listen to what you need. She’s ready to push 5 different pain meds on you and force drug testing. If you want to remedy your pain by finding the source of it go to a different doctor.

This quack did not even come in to meet me on first visit then on my second visit I waited 45 min till she came in stating that she could help me with my leg pain with injections, I went in for lower back pain so she obviously had not even looked at my chart. Stay away from this quack

I have been seeing Dr. Trampota for 6 years. I had seen numerous Doctors for back pain. She examined me and discussed my treatment options. After some attempts to find relief from my back pain we both made the decision to perform surgery on my back to install a stimulator. I am extremely happy that I live without back pain now. I no longer have to take any pain medication.

My uncle went to see Dr Trampota recently!! He was treated so badly. My uncle had major chest and back trauma!! He has been living in pain for the past 30 yrs. She screamed at him while injecting him, his leg jolted from hitting a nerve. She screamed at him to stop it!! What kind of Dr are you? You hit a nerve, his leg is now worse than before!! What happened to the oath you were sworn into? Talk to your patients. Obviously your heart is no longer kind, you are a cold heartless person. I will pray that God touch your heart. I understand you have to decifer between your addict patients and true pain patients. The way you treated my uncle is unacceptable!!

Angry niece – May 07, 2020

If you need a pain doctor, this is not who you’re looking for. She requires payment in advance for a reason. She provides poor quality and charges too much. She doesn’t take the time to listen to your issues, she’s a "one trick pony", back injections. She failed to replay back to my pcm, her office wanted. To charge $25 just for me to pickup and hand carry my records from one office visit. She performed no treatment whatsoever and still charged $286. She claims to be an intervention doctor.

Dr Trampota has been wonderful. After several attempts to control my lower back pain, she turned me on to an electronic implant stimulator. It took my pain away along with the cane I was needing to use for the last year. Always pleasant to discuss my pain issues with, she seems to be a caring, listening and helpful doctor.

I have been to numerous Drs over the years for chronic back pain, by far she is the worst! She was always rushed, didn’t listen & barked orders at her office workers. She did a surgical procedure to “help” my pain & during it I was jolted with so much pain it brought me to tears. I expressed my concern & was told it’ll be better in 2 days. I was then forced to use a walker for 3 weeks & needed oxycodone. 4 months later my right leg is still affected, yet she never acknowledged an issue. Beware!

I have been to many Drs. for chronic back pain, and Dr. Trampota has helped me tremendously. In the past, injections have never worked for me, and believe me, I have suffered through many. Not so with Dr. Trampota. She has always taken the time to pinpoint where I hurt and how badly I hurt. She has given me a new outlook on life and with her treatments and a modicum of pain releivers, I am doing great. I am 70 years old and still play raquetball 3 times a week. Thank you, Dr. Trampota.

Over the last 30 years I have visited a dozen or so pain management doctors. I can say that I have had the best results by far with Sarah Trampota. I highly recommend Dr. Trampota. She is truly a skilled professional. Over the last 5-6 years I have been treated 30-40 times, all with excellent results.

I came to Dr. Trampota for chronic back pain. Since she is a pain management Dr. she knows how to help manage your pain. Through a series of injections I have been able to finally get relief. She takes her time and listens to the needs of her patients. She is also a Spanish speaker which helps her communicate effectively with her Spanish speaking patients. I have already recommended Dr. Trampota to my family and friends!

I do not trust this doctor. She talks extremely fast and intimidates her office staff and patients. I waited over one hour and had an appointment to find out she doesn't come into the office until much later than the appointments. She insists on procedures-not medication and every person in that waiting room was using a walker.
