Dr. John Ward, MD

I highly recommend Dr. John Ward and staff. Their professionalism, compassion and genuine concern was comforting when I was experiencing pain and discomfort. They took the time to listen to my issues and thoroughly explained my condition per X-rays results and had an effective plan of action. Thank you so very much.

Dr. Ward quickly and accurately diagnosed my condition and clearly explained his strategy for eliminating my pain. The procedure was pain free and I felt much better within 24 hours. I strongly recommend Dr. Ward to anyone experiencing a high level of pain. I was in excruciating pain and Dr. Ward eliminated it quickly.

Very quick response. Office staff helpful and personable. Dr. Ward is very thorough and took his time to get a good history, listening, taking notes and asking specific questions that created further understanding. I felt heard and understood. Scheduled treatment quickly as well. Excellent experience!

Went to Dr. Ward for chronic back pain. He got me right in and with a steroid injection, I was able to function almost normally the next day. His entire staff is professional, friendly and efficient. I would definitely recommend his team.

He rants of food nutrition conspiracy and evil of caffeine and fast food and other non related items left several questions about skills. Also speaks of other Drs focusing on single issue as he focused on same issue he felt caused pain even when same treatment yielded no results. But refused to try treatment my orthopedic dr thought would help.

On time, X-ray was fast after visit.

He was very kind. He made things easy to understand.

I would like to commend Dr. Ward and his medical team for the professional way in which they handled my procedure. He was very thorough in the interview and explained the problem in ‘lay terms’ so it was easy for me to understand. Although I was anxious because I’ve never had an epidural, he put my mind at ease. He and his staff had my best interest in mind as they talked me through the whole process. He was exceptionally concerned about my pain level as he administered the potion and stopped when I told him it hurt, waited a few seconds before he proceeded. His nurses made me comfortable and at ease. I feel very blessed that I was referred to him. I’m getting better every day. Thank you, Dr. Ward!

Dr. Ward and his staff are great. He takes time to listen and offer suggestions. He learns his patience problems and finds solutions. His staff is excellent in working through insurance to get thing approved very quickly. He is straight to the point on what needs to be done for pain improvement, and explains things so the patient understands. A doctor is only as good as the information the patient provides. He had reviewed my records and listened very carefully to my problems on the first visit. He is very supportive and he and I work as a committee for the plan to my improvement. Dr. Ward has followed up with phone calls himself to check on pain status and possible next steps. I could not ask for a better doctor and the support that I have received.

I went to this Dr for chronic pain. He was extremely rude and arrogant. He actually told me if I quit drinking caffeine my pain would go away. I've met CNAs that knew more about medicine than this jerk.

Absolutely wonderful Dr. who takes TIME a d LISTENS to everything! I have never had a Dr. take so much time in listening and explaining everything in such great detail so that I can understand! He also cared enough to provide information for resources. I missed Taki g the Riverview Hospital Survey so wanted to at least be able to get a review out there for others to know that he's very trusting, caring and EXTREMELY THOROUGH!!!!! I APPRECIATE his time and recommendations!!!!

I couldn't be more pleased with my first visit with Dr. Ward and his staff. On time, very thorough examination and took time to explain what was going on with my back and the plan of action to try and eliminate my pain and discomfort. Highly recommend.

Even if your case is complex and other Dr’s give up he is always there to try something to offer you pain relief. There is nothing worse for a pt than to think your Dr has given up. He has never made me feel like he will give up. Highly recommend Dr. Ward . And his nurse Angela is so nice and efficient.

So far I've had 2 appointments with Dr. Ward. Both were on time, and the staff was awesome. During my 2nd appointment I received steroid injections. They went exactly as Dr. Ward had explained. He takes the time to tell you in detail what is wrong and what he plans to do to help. I would recommend him to anyone.

Yes! I already have.

The visit was on time they took me to back ask about the medicine I was on blood pressure then within minutes i took in the room Dr. Ward came in he got his stuff ready then he gave me the shot THANK-YOU girls are great i come home lay rest of the day next day the pain is gone.

The staff are very nice Dr. Ward listens!!!

Dr. Ward always give a detailed explanation of my problem. He offers suggestions as to fix or offers a referral to another doctor.

He has helped me to be able to function

I trust Dr. Ward emphatically. He was there in my hardest days and kept me going. He explains clearly, is kind, does an excellent job, and has a wonderful staff.
