Hi ,

I just googled pain specialists in Hot Springs and found three on this website:

rkansas-ar/hot-springs-pain-medicine-doctors

One of these might be the guy you are seeing now. But look at them and see if

you can get into one of the other two or both of them for a consult. Make the

appts. for the same day, a couple of hours apart, so you can do them both on one

trip, then make your choice based on the consultation you have with them. Don't

forget they work for YOU. You or your insurance PAYS them to help you. You have

every right to interview them and find out what kind of care you will get from

them. Remember to go loaded with information and a list of questions. Ask them

if they can provide the care you need. Express to them you are NOT a drug

seeker, other than to treat your chronic pain and ask if they can adequately

treat your pain. Then we'll go from there.

I'll help you the best I can from across the miles. Please consider setting up a

consultation with each of these docs. Let us know how things go.

Hugs,

Tommie
