Dr. Atef F Israel

I would say it’s a waste of time at best, definitely skip out on going. They don’t offer any explanation or help whatsoever. It felt more like an interrogation rather consultation to determine the cause of pain. Unless you are attempting to get pills out of it. I would not go. The nurse was extremely rude. The appointment ran late by 45 minutes.

Dr. Israel was so nice and personable. He listened to everything I had to say and came up with a great game plan for the future. It's refreshing to find a Dr that genuinely cares and isn't just out there to push pills.

I had been dealing with pain for a number of years. Upon my first visit with Dr Israel he had diagnosed the source of my sacroiliac and treatment soon began. My pain is under control at this time.

Undoubtedly one of the worst doctor experiences in my life. From doctor to staff. Dont you dare have a complaint, you will be ignored by staff, repeatedly, til you have an attitude. Dana, office staff likes to throw her weight around by telling you if you continue with the attitude, your answer from Dr. Israel will be NO. Office staff doesn't have that power, it comes from Dr. Israel himself. And all he wanted to do for me anyway was medication management, which I never asked for. Undoubtedly, he isn't the only pain doc in town, and my bet is I can get something way better than just medication management elsewhere. Don't hold your breath on Dr. Israel or his staff.

Always friendly and willing to work with me so that my appointments are convenient. They are good about looking for non narcotic pain solutions.

I love Dr Israel I have been going to him for over 10 years. He has always been very good to me always helping me. A great doctor and friend.

Dr. Israel is an amazing man and doctor. He took the best care of my mom before she left us. That was a doctor appointment she didn't mind going. She had known Dr. Israel for along time. She always had great things to say about him. So when it came to a point my husband needed a new doctor I could hear my mom telling me Dr. Israel. Thank you Dr. Israel is an amazing man and doctor.

Dr Israel is very caring and explains his plan for reducing my pain very well. The office staff is also very friendly and helpful. My only complaint is that at the Centerpoint office the signage is not very good and it's a long walk from the elevator for someone in a lot of pain like me.

Dr. Israel is the best pain doctor I have ever had. I have been with him since 2003,and he's the best.

Dr Israel is one of the best! His sense of humor makes the experience less stressful and even makes me laugh every time I come in for a epidural injection. The staff is excellent in every way. I've been seeing Dr Israel for years for lumbar and cervical injections and I'll always keep coming back to see him to help me with my spinal issues. Dr Israel is one of the best!

I've only been Dr. Israel's patient for a couple of years and have only seen him twice. I usually just see the nurse practitioner. Saw him yesterday and asked about some arthritis pain. He just said it's treated the same as my back pain. No one else seems interested in helping me....he at least will listen the two times I've seen him. Kim at the Lee's Summit office is amazing.

Great place! Love Dr Israel! Very down to earth, will listen to you and give great advise!

Excellent experience all around.

Dr Israel is the BEST!!!!! His nurses and staff are great too.

Thanks for all you have done for me. No really Thank you!!!!

Dr. Israel provided care for me 15 to 20 years ago, and I was extremely happy to see that he is still practicing medicine, and my experience with him before and currently has been very good. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing care for pain.

Dr. Israel saw me in 2004 at the old office in Independence down from Sabates eye center. A few Injections some pain meds that keep me functioning well. I'm still a patient to this day. Quite frankly, I enjoy the Staff, My Favorite Nurse hands down is Liz Morrow, (I took the time to find out who she was)! I must say, She has never messed my Medication dates up. When I call the office She is always very prompt to call back and helps me with any questions I have. I can tell most days If Liz is in the office, her energy and great mood has already influenced the office Staff. I do not always feel well on a vist to the Clinic as I have good days and Bad. Liz is always in a fantastic mood and that truly makes a big Difference in a person's life when we live in pain daily. Dr. Israel is a great Dr. With Liz as his Nurse, you have the perfect team that will keep me coming back as they are K.C. Pain Center!

Absolutely no information shared with family. Dr Israel was acutely aware family wanted to be present during appointment. Mom has advanced dementia. He shared complicated diagnoses with her. By the time she was brought back to the waiting area she had no idea what was discussed.

One of the worst pain management doctors I've seen in my life. I have had one neck and two back surgeries with chronic pain and he does not seem to understand pain and Pain Management. I am looking for a new doctor immediately. I have never met such a rude person in my life! And I would never refer anybody to go to them . I would suggest that you should stay away!

The only doctor out of MANY doctors who actually helped relief and manage my pain. Also has a great bedside manor... I like a doctor that will joke around a little. That helps put me at ease during treatments.

If it was not for Dr. Israel from Pain Management I would not be able to even get out of bed and walk or doing things with my daughter. After over 45 years ago when my back was hurt in the service he gave me a new life that I'm not living with 9 to 10 pain levels anymore. I have my days but that is because I did to much and started a spasm, if you have back problems call the Drs at Pain Management Center they all are very good at what they do for me Dr. Israel is my go to Dr. John Luikart DAV

Please don't go to Dr Israel he is rude and don't know what he is doing came to my appointment in dirty jeans and shirt looked like he came in from the farm fields.know wonder he has only 1 star rating

So caring and listened to my concerns. Very knowledgeable from years of experience.

The doctor does not send your prescriptions in to the pharmacy on time, making you run out. Staff is also not very helpful.

I've been going to Dr Israel for 12-13 years or so now. Originally went because I had compression fractures in my back that caused chronic pain. I hadn't gone back in a few years because inexplicably my back stopped bothering me altogether. I recently broke a foot, now that and my back have become arthritic probably because I also had bypass and was inactive for a while. Dr Israel was at once humorous, sympathetic, and friendly. My wait was only about ten minutes. Would always recommend...

He ordered MRIs to see the cause of my pain only because I asked to know source of my pain. He wanted to just do a procedure and didn't explain what but a nurse said injections of some kind. He took the report of normal results for face value, not looking at images. Misdiagnosed. My neuro said neither were normal. Average time spent at appt, 2 hours. Time with him 2-5 minutes. Didn't listen to me. Underestimated my pain. Awful doctor.
