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.

Best pain management doctor.
Dr Darr has treated me for pain management in my lower back off & on for over 10 years. When she left MUSC, I followed her to South Carolina Sports Medicine. I would recommend Dr. Darr without a moment’s hesitation.

Although I did not get called back until 45 minutes past my appointment time, I am still very satisfied with my results. Dr Darr gives full explanations to every detail about the recommended treatment. I totally trust in the care provided by Dr Darr.

Initial second appointment for treatment was pushed back, it left me realizing that my pain is my pain. Everyone has pain rather physical or emotional it's still their pain. I and me exist for a reason. There are 2 main things in life that I and me has no control over; LIFE and Death. Something is not in our control. Dr. Darr, Taylor Swift has nothing over you. To me, You are a Super Star as well

The very best in pain management!
Dr. Emily Darr is absolutely the best pain management doctor I have ever used, and I have been treated by many. Very kind with great bedside manner and a veritable magician with the injections. Virtually painless. As an orthopedic surgeon myself, Dr. Darr has my highest recommendation.

Honest Compassionate
We discussed in detail my severe osteoporosis and decided to hold off on injections for now. I have had injections from Dr Darr in the past and she is excellent. Other Drs. Failed at finding the source of pain and injecting properly but Dr Darr got it right! I highly recommend Dr. Darr.

Fantastic pain relief from Dr. Darr
I've had back problems for over 20 years. I had been getting epidural injections from other surgeons but they stopped working after several instances. A new surgeon referred me to Dr. Darr. She recommended a facet block injection. I had that done recently and the relief from pain has been astonishing. This is the best I have felt in many, many years. And, I no longer drag my foot when I walk. Dr. Darr is a personable yet highly skilled professional and it was a real blessing to have benefited from her expertise.

Delightful and reasonable
I was referred to Dr. Darr due to the probability that I will need some interventional therapy due to arthritis and a very misaligned neck. She asked appropriate questions and had already done her research on what my issues are. As I am virtually pain free at the moment, she gave me a variety of options for future flareups and told me to call for an appointment whenever I need to see her. I am very pleased that she did not try to talk me into something that I really don’t need at the moment. The office staff is equally pleasant and I will happily return to her for treatment as needed.

While the overall time for the visit was longer than I would have liked, the visit was a success and Dr. Darr spent a good amount of time with me diagnosing and listening to my issue. I left the appointment with a good understanding of the treatment that Dr. Darr was recommending and after one day, I am very happy with the results of the treatment. Dr. Darr solved my problem. Also, her PA, Deanna, was exceptional. She sat and listened attentively. She shared the x-ray results and took her time to answer all my questions before sending Dr. Darr in to the consultation room. I had an extremely successful visit and more than pleasant experience with all the staff.
