Colorado Pain Care - Lakewood 12596 West Bayaud Avenue, Lakewood, CO 80228

"I was actually having a procedure the same day as a reviewer who 1 starred the practice for the "people in the back" who supposedly "make fun of and laugh" at patients. I heard and saw Dr. Krutsch go back and talk to her prior to her throwing a tantrum, calling the employees names and storming out. You can hear everything that is said in the procedure waiting area and the staff all know it. That team has been together for a long time (I have on average 10 procedures a year) and they create a positive environment even with some of the horrid things I've witnessed patients saying and doing. Due to the fact that anything they say can be heard they do whisper occasionally since if they're discussing anything regarding their patients and any medical issues that they need to be aware of they won't broadcast that private information. They laugh, because they have great relationships with their team. I've never heard them mock or make fun of any patients even when I might be chuckling to myself when hearing others. I've been there days when I felt horrific and the procedure team and Dr. Krutsch always brighten my day! I've been going to Colorado Pain Care for 10 years. I was hit by a truck riding a bicycle and have lots of issues that continue. At my first appointment I met Dr. Jason Krutsch and told him my goal was to get back on a bicycle. The other Drs I had seen all told me to "give up" and plan on suffering and not doing any of the activities I loved again, I was 30, and that answer was not acceptable. Dr Krutsch and the PA I would see at my general appointments started treating the worst issues as non-invasively as possible and then moved onto to other problems that arouse, over time some things are worse (which was anticipated due to the injuries I suffered) and some have gone away. They've supported me and treated me with procedures, medications and physical therapy to ensure I could get back to the sports and adventures I love and am so grateful for their team. I've had a few PA's over the years that weren't a fit and I switched, but Dr Krutsch and the team overall are amazing. The team on the procedure side is wonderful and caring. They definitely deal with challenges and verbal abuse I've witnessed while there. They are professional and kind even to those who do not exude the same behavior towards them. The front desk staff is also amazing and caring. I whole heartedly recommend them to anyone dealing with chronic pain, instead of just trying to medicate it away, they apply a multi-modal approach to get real long-term results!!"

"Thank goodness for Nicole and the front office staff for working me in recently. Nicole is the gold-standard for a medical office manager and Dr. Krutsch always treats me with a smile, and conversation to settle down nerves prior to a procedure. Dr. Libby is very proficient in her profession and kind and empathetic. If you’re looking for a place to go for a wide range of treatments, Colorado Pain Care Lakewood should be your 1st stop. Thank you!"

"First off I want to give the girls up front much respect because they treat everyone very well. I’ve never seen them treat anyone differently. I’ve also never seen them make fun nor laugh at their patients. Now the ones in the back…. I know they don’t like me for the fact that I do speak my mind. But it’s really frustrating when you’re in pain and have been told to be at your appointment thirty minutes before, which I think I’ve been pretty good at it. I sat in the front waiting area for quite sometime without being acknowledged by the back office. Sometimes you have to fess up if you’ve made a mistake and let your patient know, not make them feel like crap and make fun of them and roll your eyes, whisper and laugh at them. And make a remark that “ you’re not doing this today “. I’ve not only had that happen to me but I’ve heard them before talk about other patients, little do they know that I’m always listening. Not good for the practice, all it takes is one or all to make you look bad!!! You never know what someone is going through as it is!! VERY, VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!! ***Adding to this…I walked out not getting my injection today. While I was on the phone with my husband having a conversation about not being seen as I had been there two hours and how I was feeling, one of the MA was listening to my conversation and she felt the need to come and intervene which is very wrong on her end! No professionalism. Dr Krutsch didn’t even come and talk with me knowing I was upset. At this point I feel like just another dollar sign to him. Which I do see what the insurance pays out at each visit and for each injection, etc., so myself and any other patient that they treat badly wouldn’t matter to them. **BE AWARE PEOPLE, find you a place that listens and care about you NOT laugh and whisper about you!"

"I have been going to Colorado Pain care for over two years now and they have always treated me with care and compassion. From the injections to PT, and the office in between, they certainly do everything in their power to ensure the comfort of their patients. I would highly recommend this office to anyone experiencing chronic pain."

"I love this center! I highly recommend! To be greeted with a big warm smile a lovely Mrs.Nicole always there to check you in with a big hello! They are so very nice professional they listen to your concerns made me feel so comfortable! My Dr Krutsch is awesome so compassionate always with a big smile knows my name, he does all my prescedures he is awesome! Ms Kelsey is amazing! Listens to all my all my pain complaints and does everything to help me get thru my days!"
