He cares about money not the patients. Hes getting too old and really should retire already, he is strictly buisness so much that he comes off rude. There's a staff member I particularly strongly dislike she tried to hinder my treatment by nudging the dr into holding off my prescription . When she has a bad day she is rude to the patients and no one wants to speak up for themselves I assume they already knew what I just learned. Shes problematic , rude and vindictive if I dont let people like that in my close circle of friends why then would I allow people like that to take part in my treatment of pain. Being sick is hard enough as it is to have someone demean me.The dr seems like he can no longer make his own decisions so she pretty much decides what goes on around there and she definitely realizes she has that clout.

They paid close attention to me and all of my questions were answered. Their staff is the most friendly, welcoming staff I've ever dealt with. They are so warm and professional, and make the whole experience that much better. I was so impressed with the progress I was able to make after visiting them. All my questions were answered, and I feel a lot more confident and hopeful about the future. The office was very easy to locate. I didn't have any trouble finding it at all. Dr Shwachman is a very good doctor, I was referred to him by my Primary Care Physican he is a Pain Specialist Doctor I wish I still could see him I have since moved out of state. I havent been able to find a primary care doctor or pain doctor as good as mine in California were. They were both great. Dr Bina A. Kamdar was my Primary Doctor and boy do I miss her and Dr Shwachman very much indeed. I hope they are doing well and may God bless them both.

The bottom line here is I have been in severe pain for years. My whole life was built around my pain level. Yesterday Dr. Shwachman performed a procedure on me that change my life.I slept like I've never slept in years and my range of movement has increased 75%!!! I can't wait to go to work as I have never worked this job with this pain reduction. God Bless Dr. S. I can't say enough great things about him and his staff.
