I'm a long time spinal cord injury patient that has had nerve pain for close to 40 years now and I met Priscilla Pond for the first time today to talk to her about pain management and she was just absolutely wonderful. She is a professional, she is smart, she listens closely and she tries to do the best to help you with your situation. So I rate her a 10 and would love to see more doctors just like her, nurse practitioners like her. Very good job. Thank you Priscilla.
She listened to me and she helped me instead of pushing me to another specialist and she gave me options about my health care
My provider was very informative, very polite, answered all questions, made sure that I was feeling good, taken care of, and I was very satisfied with this provider. Thank you.
On time and very attentive to my concerns.
No improvement is needed, everything was great including the nurse practitioner., Priscilla Ponte
Cleaned and replaced bandages . Checked my incisions. Talked to me about using my bolis and explained the importance of using it as my primary means of pain relief. Addresses my care in a superb manner.
Priscilla was very good in listening to the problems I was having with my back, with my leg and went over advice and things that I can do to hopefully and helpfully improve it. So that was important and she listened really well and was very, very easy to talk to.
I am elderly and disabled and I was treated with respect and consideration. All the staff I office staff is to be thanked and commended for making me feel important and intelligent. Thank you...
Empathetic to my situation. Excellent listener. Knowledgeable about medication which would be helpful to my condition. Recommend and ordered MRI that discovered fractures in my back that ultimately will lead to the solution of my problem.
Every experience I have had at the pain clinic has been amazing
Ms Ponte listened, counselled, and took an appropriate amount of time. I felt seen as the kids say.
