Kevin Douglas Cairns

Kind, thorough & excellent all around! :)

Spent almost a year coming to this facility hoping someone could fix my lower back pain. After thousands of dollars and numerous appointments my condition never improved. Also disappointed with how rude and uncaring their staff, specifically Sabrina was. Frustrated with how much time I invested with this practice and how little they ended up caring about me.

The visits last only minutes, the follow up is done by Nurse practitioner. No details are given before spinal injections which are totally useless. I did not get any relief for my backache after several injections. No explanation is given about poor result of the treatment

I have been a patient of Dr Cairns for several years, and am completely satisfied with his treatments AND staff. I have shoulder, neck and back problems from my 25 years as a Rescue Lt with the City of Hialeah. My pain is well managed, and, as someone "in the business"highly recommend this entire practice.

Dr. Cairnes and his practitioner are both amazing! They listen to your concerns and they try everything they can to help you feel better! They return calls promptly. They make me feel very comfortable expressing my chronic pain and Spine issues. Best doctor you could ask for!

If you will choose go to dr. Cairns's clinic, you should know that after their treatments, your pain will doubled and you will suffer more. One month ago I had an injection at dr.Cairns clinic, but after this pain in my back got worse. When I called to dr. Cairns office and told them about this, they suggested to wait couple weeks more, but my pain wasn't gone, so they made appointment to see the doctor to discuss. But at the meeting was his assistant, who didn't solve problem. I'm still suffering from strong pain and I barely can stand and sit now. In bottom line what I got from this clinic: a bill for my couple visits, steroid injection and DOUBLED PAIN in my back. If you go there, be ready that nobody will provide you any costs of service and some people from dr.Cairns's team, like Sabrina will be disrespectful to you. I got unprofessional service. I'm very disappointed I wasted my time. I STRONGLY DO NOT RECOMMEND DR.CAIRNS clinic. Avoid this place if you care about your health and you don't want to make your problem worse.

Dr. Cairns was recommended to me by my primary physician after Had an exray and an MRI on my lumbar spine. I have had years of pain. Both the X-ray and the MRI show multi layer degenerative disc desiese (68 yrs old). My primary gave my Dr. Cairns name and I made the appointment which was just yesterday. Hard to believe but today I am pain free after just one Proceedure. This is not a bogus review, he is kind and caring and explained exactly what he was going to do. A true genius. Rick N.

Dr. Cairnes is an excellent physician. However, the woman who scheduled his visits is rude and unprofessional. I saw him anyways and was quite pleased with his knowledge and expertise. I guess sometimes in order to see a good doctor you have to put up with the rudeness of his staff. It’s a shame the office manager doesn’t do something about it.

Dr. Cairns is the BEST! He's helped me in so many ways. He's made my life manageable in spite of the pain.

Dr. Cairns treated Mom for a collapsed vertebrae due to her osteoporosis. He did a 20 minute "cement job" procedure and cured her of pain. His bedside manner is so caring and I am grateful for his expertise. Linda Bird

I went to 3 doctors and lived with pain for 5 years until I saw Dr. Cairns and he eliminated ALL OF MY PAIN after just one procedure that I had done over 3 months ago. I had lost hope. I owe this doctor my life.

DR CAIRNES COMES OFF AS A NICE GUY. FIRST, HE TELLS YOU HES A HARVARD GRADUATE. THEN HE TELLS YOU IN PUT IN 500 NEUROSTIMULATORS , THAT WAS BACK IN 2008. THEN HE TELLS YOU IN PUT IN THESE IN THE FASCIA LAYER AS OPPOSED TO THE ESTABLISHED EPIDURAL SPACE. HE PUT ONE IN ME AND THE DAY OF THE SURGERY HE SAID DO U WANT IT IN YOUR LOWER BACK OR YOUR NECK. I SAID WHAT DO YOU THINK . HE SAID WE CAN DO BOTH. SO HE PUTS IT IN AND WITHIN ONE MONTH THE WIRES BROKE BECAUSE HE DID NOT PUT IN ENOUGH SLACK. THAT WAS 25 THOUSAND DOLLARS. I TOLD HIM I WAS EXPERIENCING RT TESTICULAR PAIN. HE DENIED THAT WAS POSSIBLE. SO IN HIS OFFICE HE SAID NONCHANTLY, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO , I SAID HMM CAN YOU PUT IN ANOTHER ONE , HE SAID SURE AND THEY PUT IN THE ANS MINI STIMULATER.. THAT WAS 21000 DOLLARS. BYE THE WAY HE AND HIS OFFICE SWORE TO ME THAT FINANCIALLY I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR 3000 DOLLARS MAXIMUM. ANYWAY, IT STUNG , IT WAS A UNPLEASANT FEELING, PLUS THE NUEROSTIMULATER HURT ME. IN MY LEFT BUTTOCKS PLUS MY RT TESTICULAR PAIN. IT DIDN'T WORK FOR MY PAIN. IT WAS REMOVED IN 2014. THEN I GOT SUED BY THE HOSPITAL FOR 50,000 DOLLARS. I BEEN PAYING THAT FOR MANY YEARS. DR CAIRNES WOULD NOT BE A MAN OF HIS WORD HE LIED TO MY FACE. I HAVE TO PAY OFF THIS DEBT FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. DO NOT TRUST THIS DOCTOR HE IS A LIAR A FREAKIN LIAR . HE IS A SCAM ARTIST. BE AWARE, DO NOT TRUST THIS DOCTOR. I FOUND A LAWYER TO SUE HIM IN YEARS AGO BUT IT 3 MONTHS OVER THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS. DONT GET SCREWED DR CAIRNES COMES OFF AS A NICE GUY.

Dr Cairns is a very nice Dr. However seeing him as a disabled person with multiple chronic conditions,i was told that they could not help me any longer because of the sporadic use of marijuana. Unfortunately when I had radiation treatment for my cancer I also developed dysphagia. I already has issues with getting hungry now I have problems swallowing to. I needed to use marijuana every now and then and had been upfront about it all. However the issue that I used marijuana in a medicinal way was not OK with the company. When policy conflicts with providing medical care to some of the patients who have cancer or other conditions where marijuana has a benefit I feel it's a poor choice and do not think the DEA would have any issues with it. On many occasions I have tried the legal medication but it made me to loopy and high. I do not wish to be walking around with a medication that I cannot control. While living in California I was allowed to smoke legally. Then to move across country and find out that you can get a long sentence for doing something so you could eat and stay alive it is more than just contradiction when tobacco has killed in the millions and alcohol is no better and that is legal too. This hypocrisy needs to stop as its mainly a way to keep prisions filled. Our politicians are to busy taking money from the smoking and drinking lobbyists. How could anyone even justify tobbaco and alcohol being legal when they harm and kill so many. But if some smokes a quarter of a joint they risk their medical care and could face some time in jail. This is not at all reflective of the doctors in this location. They are wonderful doctors but I have to question the thought put into denying people who so desperately need the services provided. I cannot choose between eating and living in pain. I'm just grateful that I found help in finding another doctor.

I DID NOT GET TO FINISH . THE FIRST NUEROSTIMULATER BROKE AFTER 1 MONTH. HE PUT IN ANOTHER 1 . BOTH CAUSED ME RT TESTICULAR PAIN. I HAD TO GET THEM REMOVED IN 2014. THEN I GOT SUED FOR 50,000 DOLLARS. I BEEN PAYING THAT FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE DO NOT TRUST THIS DOCTER MISLED ME, MAYBE NOT ON PURPOSE BUT SHEER INCOMPETENCE.

After seeing Dr.. Cairns for a few tests, he was able to correctly diagnose the cause of my lower back/hip issues, and to address them quickly with non-invasive procedures. I have been suffering from lower back/ pain. for over two years, and after seeing other Osteopaths and Chiropractors, he was the only Doctor to give me immediate pain relief, without the use of drugs;. In addition he is a very kind and caring physician. I highly recommend Dr. Cairns..

I previously had written a poor review based on the scheduling staff before I had seen Dr. Cairns. Since, I have had the chance to meet him and would like to change my review. I believe him to be a highly competent and caring Physician. He spent the time to listen to my concerns and to explain my options and what the potentional outcomes might be. I would highly recommend him to anyone with problems involving pain.

Dr. Cairns and his entire staff are the absolute best in the business!! I've been a patient of Dr. Cairns for almost 4 months now. I had my cervical spine C4/C5 fused together 6 months ago by another fabulous Doctor in Palm Beach, FL. Dr. Cairns and his staff have taken over my post-operative care and it has been such an amazing experience! I constantly brag to anyone who will listen to me about how amazing Dr. Cairns and his staff are. He is hands down the most compassionate and the best Doctor

I saw Dr. Cairns after tearing a disk in my lower back at Crossfit. From the moment I saw him, he put my mind at rest that my back could fully recover and most importantly, I could again exercise and do the things I love to do in my active lifestyle. I was in pain, but most importantly, I wanted my life back! Dr. Cairns helped achieve that goal for me in less time than I imagined. I am so grateful for his thoughtful care. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone suffering with a back ailment.

I have been going to Dr. Cairns for years for CRPR which is very painful He is the most compassionate doctor I have ever met in my life. Besides being a great doctor he has that compassionate side. He will be greatly rewarded for all his love and compassionate for his patients. I'm fortunate to have this one doctor that cares.

Dr. Cairns is knowledgable and aware. He takes the time to listen and make assessments based off of your personal life as well as medical needs.

Dr. Cairns was referred to me by a friend for my severe lower back pain. From my initial contact with his office until to today I am always pleasantly surprised how they exceed my expectations and go the extra mile. Dr. Cairns has a caring and humorous way of making you feel like you are his only patient. He took my pain seriously but also realized my financial situation and gave me options that would work best with my insurance. His physical therapy team is fantastic. Great experience!

Dr. Cairns is amazing. He went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and progress. He spoke to me in a way that made sense , and I felt comfortable asking enough questions to ease my mind. He is patient, kind and knowledgeable. I highly recommend him.

The smartest, best-educated and trained, and most compassionate spine doctor you will ever encounter. He will take the time to thoroughly diagnose your condition, and then lay out a clear plan for how to address it. He successfully solved my spine problems, and I referred him to my friends and they are all equally happy!

Dr. Cairns treats the patient not just the disease. He listens to the patient and is able to pinpoint the areas needing treatment. He explains the problem as well as the steps in the treatment. He always asks if you have any questions at the end of a visit or treatment.

The entire staff is incredibly attentive & efficient and it's a pleasant welcome coming into the office. Dr. Cairns has a high level of compassion for what ails you and gets right to the source so that you can overcome and quickly heal to recovery. He made me feel at ease during a time in my life when I was scared to death. I recommend him on a daily basis to others who suffer from back/neck pain. He is an absolute one of a kind.

Dr Cairns is an incredible caring doctor! He shows a genuine interest and concern in your individual needs. I recommend him to anyone who has any spinal or back problems or injuries.

Having spine surgery several years ago. I was in a panic in November. I could not get an appointment with my neurosurgeon until late January. I called Dr. Cairns. Within moments I had my MRI scheduled and then the epidural. Everyone in his staff is competent and compassionate. When I went to my primary care and the neurosurgeon they both said you picked a great Doctor. I researched Dr's. I am relatively pain free at the moment. Hence the fruit basket of gratitude during the busy holiday week.

I have been a patient for over 6 years I think- sometimes I have waited up to an hour, but by the time I leave there, I feel so important- He makes you feel comfortable, & he is kind and compassionate. Back/neck issues are not always easy to pinpoint the root cause & it takes time, but he is always upfront and tries to explain things to me as clearly as possible. I have had several procedures, & I get overwhelmed & panicked- he holds my hand and assures me everything is going to be ok

My father has been in a severe amount of pain, waiting eagerly for his appointment with Dr. Cairns to receive treatment that would temporarily alleviate the pain. The appointment has been established for a month now. Today was finally the day of the appointment and my father was very relieved. Today, at the very last minute, Cairn's secretary informed my father that he would have to wait -27- more days because, "he didn't think it was worth it to treat him since his other 2 patients canceled."

For 10 years I have been told I have tennis elbow or carpal tunnel from several different orthopedics. Dr Cairns was treating my back with epidurals and noticed me putting pressure on my neck. He ordered a cervical MRI and diagnosed severe spinal stenosis in C5/C6. I was in his office for my back and never complained about my neck. He was proactive and diagnosed something that 3 other doctors missed!!! I had surgery last week and feel 100% better. Amazing doctor!!!! Thank you Dr Cairns

He is not a good person and only cares about himself not his patients.

Outstanding, exemplary care by world class and compassionate medical doctors, physician assistants and wonderful staff!

Dr. Cairns treated me for a lower back pain. He was very attentive to my needs and the pain I was having. I will recommend him to everyone. The treatment that He gave me took care of my problem completely. He has an excellent bed side manner and is highly trained. If you want the best see Dr. Kevin Cairns!

For the most part when in office he was not very attentive. he seemed to let his pa do the work. in fact, when he was not there is pa Amanda actually diagnosed rather than give the information and scared the hell out of me. I wrote a certified letter to dr cairns which was never answered. I sent another letter to the hospital which was never answered. when I called I was advised that dr cairns does not confer with patients, that it is done with his assistant. this is poor treatment. I have taku

DR. CAIRNS is an excellent Dr. I have been going to him for over 5 yrs plus everyone in the office are very sweet. I wish them all a happy holiday.
