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.

Collin listened to our problems and examined the area's where the pain was. He explained very thoroughly what the problems were and what was needed to fix them. He is very pleasant to talk to and understanding. Great experience.

Finding this clinic has dramatically improved my quality of life. Their procedures and knowledge are cutting edge. In my 16 years of debilitating back pain, I have never had such hope and confidence in my provider. I highly recommend this clinic to everyone.

I have never encountered another medical organization that is as efficient and effective as this one! We always can talk to someone when we call! Everyone is patient and kind no matter what. Everything is explained thoroughly and we always leave understanding everything the provider said. The doctors do incredibly good work and we have been to a lot of places.The medical assistants are so helpful. We come from Tooele and we are happy to drive far because we get such good care! We love it here!

I have had a very good experience with Collin and Dr. Khan in managing my back pain. I believe the advice and procedures have addressed the issues and the team have been great to communicate with. Further, the team has always been flexible in working with my schedule.

Dr MCDonald listened and did a complete diagnosis of all the pain in all the places. The procedures and cortisone shots he recommended where spot on.. "He was very attentive to my needs and helping me to decide how to move forward with pain management. He answered all my questions about the procedures and what to expect going forward. Since I have been seeing Dr Collin my pain is 95% gone. He is very knowledgeable and skilled in pain management and helping me with long lasting relief from years of pain.

Having gone to another pain management clinic for years, I can't tell you how awesome this place is to work with. They always get you in fast, and do exactly what you need them to do to help with your worst pain at that time. I've never once been offered an opiod, and I know that they do not ever suggest those unless the patient is beyond any other help or terminal. Kr. Khan always hits the exact spot where I'm experiencing pain, and they're not afraid to try new things for as long as it takes to get you feeling better. Love this place!

I have experienced a tremendous reduction in my pain levels. I have been to many other doctors and have been told I just need to take anti-inflammatories and/or just bear the pain. I have been told it is arthritis and there is not much else that can be done. I even tried medical marijuana. Didn't do much good because the dosing is so iffy. Collin and Dr, Khan took the time and ordered the tests to make an accurate diagnosis. Then they started treatments that worked. I am so grateful. I am so relieved that it's not just all in my mind and that there is something that can be done.

From the front office staff to the primary care doctors, everyone addressed me as a person and dealt with my issues on an individual level. When our initial approach did not produce the desired results, this team was able to effectively and quickly address my unique situation, resulting in a pain-free life without the need of radical pain-relieving drugs. Thank you to this amazing team!

Ten years ago I was diagnosed with Tardive Dyskinesa (TD)and Dystonia that started with my tongue and then progressed into my jaw, mouth, face, neck and even to lower parts of my body. Described as muscle movements that can be permanent I think a better description is muscle cramps that never stop as long as you are awake. I was a prime candidate for Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). I did not feel this was the solution that was right for me. Dr. Kahn, Wasatch Pain Solutions put together a pain management program for me and for the past three to four years Collin McDonald has worked with me on as I have continued my goal to be free from the need of pain medication. He along with another wonderful practitioner from another clinic have assisted in this quest. As of September 6th, 2019 I took my last 1/2 of a prescription pain pill. That was over a month ago at the time I am writing this review. Thank you so much Collin and Dr. Kahn for all you have done in assisting me in this journey.
