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.

I had a cervical epidural. Every staff person was exceptional. Dr. Rainer was very kind and explained every step of the procedure as he went. Have never had a bad experience in the 2 years I have been receiving pain care from his clinic. He has helped me with my severe neck pain and headaches.

Professional and caring describe Dr. Rainer.
Personally, the epidural I had between my discs was truly not painful because of Dr. Rainer’s gentle touch. He and his staff are outstanding!

Great as always
Staff great as always. Dr Rainer made you comfortable. Had a shot with sedation. Didn’t feel sedation or any thing after. My husband got a shot in the shoulder without sedation right before me. No problems there. Have been coming here for almost 10 years. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. His PA has been great. We have a new one coming one in, haven’t met yet. They have x-ray, MRI at office. They do the shots in office so you don’t have to pay extra for off site plus the cost of shots. We live at least 38 miles away and it’s worth every mile. We make our appointments together so we save time and money on gas. They try to work with you as much as they can. Try them out.

I am a fan of Dr. Rainer, however, I was in excruciating pain for 7 weeks before I could see him. I think it's more of a staff thing than the Dr.
