Excellent Doctors and Practitioners, Professional Staff, Very Clean Facility. I highly recommend Dr. Argyriou and Nurse Practitioner Dan Ippolito they are by far the 2 best medical professionals I have encountered in pain management specialty. These Doctors care and will not just write you endless prescriptions that offer no real help with the actual causes of the pain.

Dr. Choi is an amazing doctor. He's kind, understanding and always takes the time to listen and explain everything. Dr. Choi has changed my life. I suffered terribly for over 10 years because I was afraid to have back surgery. When I first met Dr. Choi I immediately felt like I could trust him and be at ease with him. He doesn't immediately say ok you need surgery and schedule it. He first looks for alternative non-surgical ways to help and if they dont alleviate your pain he then talks about surgery and explains everything in detail. Unfortunately, the non-surgical epidural injections and trigger shots did not help because I have degenerative disc disease up and down my spine but I was grateful that his team tried alternative options first. Since May 2023 and now I have had 3 surgeries. I had a lower lumbar fusion, cervical discectomy and fusion and most recently I had a spine stimulator implanted. Dr. Choi's whole team is amazing. You never feel like a number. Everyone is so personable, friendly and they know who you are making it such a more positive and personal environment.
Dr. Argyriou(pain management doctor) is the most compassionate pain management doctor I've ever met. She listens to what you are going through and comes up with ideas to help alleviate your pain with non-surgical options. I tried all the non,surgical options,that are performed by Dr. Argyriou. She is kind, compassionate, and willing to take the time to listen to me everytime I see her.
I have sent family and friends to see Dr. Choi or Dr. Argyriou and they come out with the same reaction. There is no other practice I would go to for my spinal needs.

If I could give zero stars I most certainly would. Dr. Choi was highly recommended by an amazing pain specialist. After waiting for a month and half for a consultation, the initial visit from arriving until the actual consultation was horrible. I had to wait over an 1 hour just to sit in an exam room, then I saw a nurse assistant, then a physician assistant then finally I was able to see Dr. Choi, for about maybe 15 minutes, he said I needed a more extensive surgery. Skip to the 2nd visit, today, it took 1 hour and 15 minutes to see Dr.Choi. I finally had to wait by the exam room door so that Dr. Choi could remember and acknowledge that I am not just patient but a human being. When he arrived he apologized for the wait time he basically said "I should be grateful that it was only an hour and 15 minutes wait time and and good specialist always has patients fully booked in the waiting room and and has a minimum of an hour wait time, if a doctor isn't fully booked, then that says something about the doctor and the practice." I said he's running his practice like a factory and over booking patients. He said he "only sees patients 2x a week the rest of the time he's performing surgeries and surgeries are the most lucrative part of his practice so he doesn't have time" after that we decided to part ways. Horrible and disgusting experience since the initial consultation. I should have seen the red flags on the first appointment.
