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.

Dr. Vijay always takes the time to follow through on any areas of possible concern, and is very knowledgeable about different methods of treating problem areas which may be leading to my migraines. He listens when I tell him how some things work more successfully than others without making me feel that I should solely rely on his judgment.

Review of Axis Pain Ctr & Staff
I have been treated by the Axis Pain Ctr for over 10 years. The staff is very knowledgeable, always professional, courteous, & shows genuine interest in my health. They always take great care of me. Dr Thillanathan is particularly impressive and always knows the right course of treatment for my pain. He listens intently to my concerns before deciding on a course of action/ treatment. The facility is always very clean and the atmosphere there is one where the patient knows the staff is committed to providing the best care possible. I highly recommend Dr. Thillanathan and the entire Axis Pain Ctr to anyone experiencing chronic musculoskeletal pain...they've always come through for me!

Axis Pain Center WR is the best
I have been going to WR Axis Pain Center now for 2 years. The center is very clean, the front office staff and surgery center staff have always been courteous, professional and friendly to me. I have never doubted or had any uneasy feelings when having injections given by Dr. VJ. Dr. VJ has always answered any questions to the best of his knowledge while he addresses my areas of pain in lumbar and cervical spine. I am very grateful and thankful to have Axis Pain Center available to me.

Was referred about 2 years ago to the Macon, Georgia office. I have received injections in my lower back that has tremendously improved the pain tolerance I have. I have moved out of state and will miss Dr. Vijay very much.
