Alleviate Pain: Raviinder Parmar, MD

"All you patients leaving good reviews must be dealing with headaches not pain. The only thing this "nurse practitioner" - because I only saw the Dr. Once- did was reduce my meds that helped with the pain. She had the idea of taking me off of meds that worked to try some experimental drug that I don't know would work. I told her,"I don't do well with other meds. And I have tried and I'm not comfortable being a guinea pig and experimenting with a new drug. She gave me no other alternative and flat out gave me an ultimatum. Go along with it or find another doctor. She didn't listen to me at all and had no empathy about putting me through pain for her science project. I hope you get into a really bad car accident and have to go through the same thing! I'm thinking about going to the medical board. You can't give treatment against a patience will. It's in the medical statutes."

"My first visit with Dr. Parmar was informative and I was given a plan for the future for my foot and back. Once my MRI is done I will meet again to discuss further plans for pain management. After my MRI, Dr. Parmar suggested spinal injections to reduce the pain. I was very leary of the procedure, but it went extremely well. Both the doctor and his assistant helped allay my fears. Today is the first day after the injections and all is well. I look forward to my followup visit."

"Office staff was professional, friendly and helpful! Dr Parmar was attentive, concerned, knowledgeable and went out of his way to help me transition as I just relocated from NY to Florida. My needs were met in an extremely timely manner. Dr Parmar was informative & very gentle during image guided injections. I was impressed not only with his credentials but his bedside manner"

"While I have more than his office could handle (pain pup refills etc) he is the most attentive doctors I've had in Pinellas County in a very long time. After closely listening to me and looking at my MRIs he gave me solid recommentdations and advice I could trust. Thank you Dr. Parmar!"

"Dr. Parmar was very patience with my 78 yr old mother. Explained step by step how he was going to treat her symptoms. Office staff was very nice and welcoming."
