Central Maine Neurology 10 High Street, Lewiston, ME 04240

"So I was going here for years... During a visit a couple years ago I brought up severe pain in my head scalp hair movement was horrendous and only seems to get really bad during really bad migraine of 8n above I brought this up to the doctor I asked him if he thought that it would be something neurologically and I was brushed off and he said he's not sure about that n likely not connected(while looking a bit confused) so years later I try to do my own research as it's very painful and there has to be a name for this I can't be the only one with this so I looked it up and sure enough there is a name for it and it's,Allodynia, is rare, however, it's common in people with neuropathic pain.maybe he didn't know better but I need to find a doctor n practice who does.also with excruciating Temple pain at a constant for many years it is very possible tho this was never known to me until I did my own research that it could be Temporal Arteritis again something else that was never discussed or even put on the table as a possibility. And I think that if you've been my doctor(adam johnson)for years and none of this was acknowledged it's time for me to move on to somebody who will acknowledge it."

"DON'T waist your time seeing Dr. Mehta! He use to work at Togus VA! He kept telling me nothing was wrong with my spine that it is as all in my head. How is severe pain, not being able to carry a jug of milk because it shuts off the use of my legs, pain with bending over, sitting etc. Well I brought my husband to my appointment one day because Dr Mehta kept treating me poorly. Well my husband got to see the "doctor" yell at me, make me cry and tell me my issues were all in my head. I am a female combat veteran that has been through some stuff and kept head held high. This "doctor" made me feel worthless. I was looking for answers and couldn't get anywhere with this guy. He sent me to the VA in Massachusetts where they found numerous issues with my spine. Such severe issues I was told I couldn't carry a baby safely and shouldn't risk it. Remind you they read the scans and tests I had done in Maine!!!!!! So how this "doctor" chose to dismiss me like a crazy person makes me sick! He shouldn't be able to practice!!!!!!"

"My Significant other has had nothing but issues with this office as well as “Dr.Mehta”. She had recently got a Lumbar Puncture and has had nothing but complications since. She’s in extreme pain everyday With a baseball size swollen area on her back (For over a month).The many “appointments” she has had with Dr.Mehta has gone no where. He either downplays the situation or refuses to help her in any way. Dr.Mehta refuses to proscribe any type of pain med to help. He makes recommendations purely based on what works for the general public and not what the needs of the patient are. This is borderline malpractice. Please save yourself the trouble and avoid this place."

"Completely incompetent and unprofessional staff. I brought my son's father to an appointment there to address seizures he's been having since he had brain surgery. He had a small seizure while at the office and was confused when he came to. He has seizures regularly every day. The staff took it upon themselves to call an ambulance to bring him to the hospital even though he wasn't having a medical emergency. When the paramedic came he tried to force him to go into the ambulance and wouldn't let him smoke a cigarette before going. My childs father just wanted to smoke one last cig cause u can't smoke at the hospital. So they escalated the situation and called the cops and tried to keep him there. The end result was my 5yr old seeing his father tackled and sedated. Then the staff took it upon themselves to call dhhs about the incident. Dhhs investigated and found no evidence of abuse or neglect. I would never use this doctors office again. I am seriously considering suing."

"Can't maintain a schedule, or keep competent staff. If you have an appointment, they will reschedule for months later. And if you check in to early( 15min) they forget and tell doctor your a no show, and let you sit 30mins until you ask, then they tell you sorry I forgot, the doctor is gone. They marked me a no show, the staff is not able or unwilling to fix their mistakes in a timely manner. Pick again, if you have choice."
