Dr. Stephen T Pyles

I just used your pain cream on my hand which was swollen and painful. I couldn’t even make a fist. After 3 applications I can now make a fist with no pain. I’m an 82 year old former firefighter who has known pain most of my life and this is the first product that does what it says it will do. Thank you.

I have never in my life left a review for a doctor, positive or negative. I’m leaving this review because I can’t believe how arrogant and inappropriate this man was. The “do no harm” part of the oath was violated. A lot, actually. Mr. Pyles is either unaware of his place in the dominant position in the power dynamic here or he’s aware and he just does not care to respect it OR the patient. I have a message to YOU in particular Mr. Pyle: In pain management, the DOCTOR IS IN CONTROL OF THE PATIENTS ABILITY TO LIVE A FUNCTIONAL LIFE. You need to RESPECT THIS. I felt unable to stand up for myself while YOU totally disrespected me, undermined my intelligence, and JUDGED ME. I was upfront about my mental state, and you abused that. You are not fit for patients. You do not see your patients as people. You were verbally aggressive, insulted me, and belittled me. Your staff apologized for you because you LEFT THE ROOM. This is irresponsible and unethical and your non-apology not accepted.

Very rude phone service. The woman who answered the phone was extremely unprofessional with an attitude problem. That's all.

Went for a new patient visit. Dr. Plyes did not request my records from my last pain doctor . He was going by what I put down. He then tried to tell me my Medical problems I have had for 30 years is not my problem. Note he had no records he started to raise his voice at me. He wouldn’t let me talk. I had to literally tell him to stop talking to let me talk. I felt very attacked. And was very upset when I left. I never went back after that visit. Total Jerk. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Someone please shut this place and fire this doc

DO NOT GO HERE! Someone needs to shut this clinic down!!!!

Very unprofessional and rude from the receptionist to the nurse and even to the doctor. I would not recommend this place and I wish I didn’t even have to give 1 star because they don’t even deserve it. I should have listened to the reviews before I went. DO NOT GO HERE!

With all the negative reviews of this condescending narcissist pig there’s really not much I need to say. Yes I’m talking about Dr. Stephen Pyles...just to be clear. I gave him one last chance and told my regular doctor about what was going on. My doctor encouraged me to move on if I was uncomfortable and so I am. Good day

Very Good Dr.. He saved me when my pump failed when a Dr is needed the most. Replaced pump the very next morning. He is very thorough, he is a master of pain management .. This Dr is for real patients in need of pain management. Very Good Dr.. He saved me when my pump failed when a Dr is needed the most. Replaced pump the very next morning.

Simply put Dr. Pyles is incredibly amazing. He is a highly skilled professional, knowledgable in all that he does and most importantly has the best bedside manner you will ever find in a doctor. Dr. Pyles carefully listens to your complaints and helps you with your ailments to eliminate them in the best possible way. My mother was in agonizing pain when she went to see Dr. Pyles, thankfully he was able to help her with her pain allowing her to be able to function in her day to day life. We greatly appreciate all that Dr. Pyles does for us. He has truly been a Godsend!!!

I am so thankful that I found Dr. pyles he is an amazing doctor I am a paraplegic and I have multiple issues with pain not only do it I have back pain I have phantom pain and arthritic pain he installed a stimulator in my back which has helped immensely with my back pain he is kind understanding and spend so much time with me as a patient and he does not make me feel like a number. His sincere kindness goes a very long way most physicians I’ve went too just bring you in write your script and send you along the way. Dr. pyles is completely different he cares about you as a person and wants to know how you’re feeling where is the pain and tries to come up with treatment plans to help you with every day life. I walked into his office in July for the very first time best thing I ever did I have no regrets anyone looking for a fabulous Dr. LOOK No further because Dr. pyles In my book is definitely 20 out of 10 he goes above and beyond to make sure his patients are cared for and does his due diligence to make you live with minimal pain. Dr. pyles is a godsend that I have been looking for for many years and he is the first pain doctor that has actually listen to me and understood where I was coming from! I thank God every day for him n his amazing staff. And if anyone needs a good honest and caring doctor he definitely is top notch!

My husband & I are 79 & almost 81 and suffer from crippling chronic arthritis pain. We have been pain management patients of Dr. Pyles and his staff for probably 3 or more years now and disagree with the low ratings on other reviews posted. We have been very pleased with him and his providers, especially "Marty" who understands how much pain we endure on a daily basis and who takes time to evaluate & assess our condition at every appointment. We're very thankful for having Dr. Pyles' staff caring for us.

Never have I ever been treated this way by a professional of any sort!! I had been seen by his other Drs in his practice (Which were also sub-par) & finally got to see Dr. Pyles! When he walked in the office, I started off by saying, 'I finally get to meet The Man! The Myth! The Legend!' Give him praise over the stories I had heard...boy did he prove me wrong!! This man not only was yelling at me like a child, he was basically diminishing my pain and insinuated that I was lying because no one in pain would be smiling and laughing!! If there was some way to report him to the medical board I would!! Left the office crying and will NEVER GO BACK!! I advise anyone thinking of going to his office as an option, please reconsider !!

I was only there a short time but I can't stress enough , how nice they (all staff) were to me front desk Mandy other lady, Dan , Marty Dr Pyles, and everyone there, even the patients, were so enjoyable, I regret that i stopped trying to get my records transferred when I first moved here, Dont stop until you get an appt, i have a neck and lumbar fusion, froma auto accident in 2011. They treated me with respect, and compassion, and friendliness, the little sweet heart nurse too with her huge smile, amazing , Keep it up guys because people suffering in pain, need the compassion, You guys dont fall short, great atmosphere, Love love love Happy Holidays to all of you Poore

I went to see Dr. Pyles a while back, and had the worst experience of my life. I was treated so badly. I was kept there for 3 hours in such pain. His assistant came in during this time and took down my information. Left me waiting for a very long time in so much pain for "him to make his "grand appearance". So it ended up being that way. He finally made his grand entrance and proceeds to put his feet on his desk, leans back in his chair, places his hands behind his head and begins his grueling questions over and over again. By this time my Home Health Aide was wondering what on earth had happened to me. She was getting worried and rightfully so. She also had been scared sitting in the waiting room due to the unprofessionalism she was witnessing. After the assistant had questioned me. Then. She left me sitting waiting for Doctor Pyles to come in Waiting. Waiting, he finally makes his grand entrance. Very intimidating and arrogant. He sits at his desk and begins his grueling questions over and over again. Why? What for? I didn't want him to prescribe Pot or Opioids! I was in Pain. Some other solution? I couldn't understand why he was being so demeaning. He seemed to enjoy it. I had had enough. I stood up and walked out. I said to my HHA, we're leaving. She was wondering what was happening but saw this big man on my heels and a woman right behind him scurrying after me. What for? I was kind, even in my silent disgust. Never said one cruel word, or raised my voice. I do believe that he had perhaps never had anyone said No to him and get up and leave never looking back. He then was the one, knowing he had gone to far. I was not rude. Said no unkind words. Sat in silent pain. Did not complain. Answered hers and then his grueling questions. Humbly sat there. But he finally just made me realize I needed to leave and I could not take one minute more. I simply said. " I've had it, I'm leaving.", got up and proceeded to leave, never to come back. Never looking back. However. This big man was on my heels hovering over me, as I was walking out along with his assistant. My HHA and I were very frightened by this behavior. Then, He locked the door as I just stepped out, however, I turned to request my records back, realizing I wanted all association with his practice wiped out, as actually I had received no treatment at all. Just mistreatment and intimidation or so he tried. I immediately knew I would never be coming back. So no need for records. That's when we saw the big Marijuana sign. If I had seen that before entering I would have never gone to him as that was not what I was looking for. Yet I understand the needs of others. I can truly say. I have never experienced such demeaning, cruelty in my life. Nor had my HHA been followed out a Doctors door and been locked out. We both had to sit in the car a minute to gather ourselves from a nightmare. I went to see Dr. Pyles a while back, and had the worst experience of my life. I was treated so badly. I was kept there for 3 hours in such pain. … More

I first saw Dr. Pyles for epidural injections after transferring from another doctor when I moved. After receiving injections for several years, the duration of relief diminished. I was told by both doctors that this would eventually happen. Dr. Pyles then recommended the SCS. I was resistant at first and only after seeing two orthopedic surgeons who agreed with Dr. Pyles' recommendation did I undergo the procedure. The SCS reduced my back pain so much that it was truly life-altering. It has now been almost three years since my procedure and I am still happy. Dr. Pyles was excellent in explaining and answering all of my questions and performing the procedure. Both Dr. Pyles and the SCS have my highest recommendation.

Would not recommend. Chaotic office. Big turnover in staff.

He is the most condescending Dr I’ve ever encountered! I was told I had an appointment for epidural shot in my lumbar region. When I got there and after waiting, the nurse told me I couldn’t get the epidural until he met with me. I advised her that was not what I was told. I took off work to get this. I was told not to take Advil or any blood thinners. Why would they tell me this if it was not true. Dr Pyles came in and raised his voice telling me about office procedures. I told him I am not aware of these procedures because I’m not employed there. I’m just a patient who did what I was told. I couldn’t believe how badly I was treated by him. This man is very unprofessional and extremely arrogant. How dare he speak to me in a loud tone of voice in front of nurses and other patients. Shame on him!!

They r very nice

Love the staff. Love the ease of communication and if I have an issue how quickly it gets resolved.

The best of the best!! If you are dealing with severe pain this is the first doctor (of many) who has truly treated my pain and not just given me pain medicine!! I can not recommend him highly enough!!! If you just want pain meds go to someone else, if you want to be free from your pain see Dr. Pyles he is a real pain doctor and not a script writer.

Thank you Dr Pyles for getting me out of my powered wheelchair along with the terrible high levels of chronic pain I have dealt with for so very long. Needing to be in bed on average 20 to 22 hours a day to keep my pain from spiraling out of control meant isolation for me for the last 14 years. It is joyful and overwhelming to be able to walk again. I never thought I would ever have a chance of having a relatively normal life let alone walk again unaided. I do not even need a cane. Dr Pyles you have changed my life dramatically. To be honest when I first came to your office you told me why I was having issues with my device; I was skeptical. Over the last 20 years with chronic pain I have had many, many doctors tell me they could help me but never could or just said there is nothing I can do for you and sent me on my way. I now have my life back. Praise God for leading me to you. While I still have chronic pain the levels are low and I can busy myself and take my mind off the lower levels. My 20 years experience with pain management practices have been mostly demoralizing. Everyone I come in contact with in your office has treated me as a human being worthy of respect and treated me with dignity. That in itself is worthy of a 5 star rating by my experience. If you are in chronic pain or have been in chronic pain for some time now and not getting the pain relief you need I highly recommend Dr Pyles and the Pain Treatment Centers. God bless you and yours Dr Pyles and thank you so very much for helping me. I want to say God Bless and thank you to each and every one of you who works at the Pain Treatment Centers in Ocala Florida. All of you have treated me professionally and compassionately everytime I come to your office. A special thank you and God Bless goes to your Flowonix representative who has been so kind and helpful. She is by far the best device representative I ever had. She's number one out of four device representatives I have had since 2009. Her kindness is noticed and appreciated.

From the moment I walked into this office and until I left his staff was AMAZING!! They went over every detail and thoroughly checked everything out. He explained everything and made me feel at ease.

Dr. Pyles has been treating me for the past 7 months . Dr Pyles went above and beyond to try to curve my pain from Gangrene. Dr Pyles is all about his patients comfort and not just by the use of pill medications. Dr Pyles recommended BOSTON SCIENTIFIC Spinal Cord Stimulator. I am sure glad that he did ,and that i decided to do this procedure. Dr Pyles and his staff were great all the way from the initial trial of the procedure and there after. The Office staff was quick at getting my insurance approval so that i would not have to suffer from this terrible GROIN PAIN THAT I LIVED WITH on a daily basis. The Folks that give Dr.Pyles bad reviews need to reevaluate Themselves,because its seems the issue is more for personal and recreational use and not to help you live a better Quality Life !! And not for nothing Dr.Pyles has compassion and seems more then concerned for me and my quality of life.. THANKS DOC.. I owe you one Man!! Dr. Pyles has been treating me for the past 7 months .

For the last 14 years I’ve had multiple things wrong with me, I thought it was all normal for a life of a professional firefighter. Over the last 8 years things started to get worse and doctor after doctor would diagnose the problems as being from “9/11, PTSD, mental, even a brain tumor from The World TradeCenter,” of course! November of 2020 I went to Pain Treatment Centers in Ocala for one of my normal appointments. When speaking with Dr. Marty, I told him I had a paralysis attack the morning before... everything came to a screeching halt. He asked for more detail, how long has this been happening, how long does it last, what parts of your body get effected, and what doctors have I seen? When I told him 7 doctors over the course of 8 years, he immediately sent me to a Neurologist, Dr. Kim. After an MRI was ordered of my neck, it revealed a severe compression of my spinal cord, C3-C4. The MRI also revealed that my injury “should have made me a quadriplegic!” I was immediately sent to The Mayo Clinic for spinal surgery. I’m currently 4 weeks into my spinal surgery recovery and I feel absolutely fantastic. No more brain fog, no more dizziness, no more antidepressants, no more anti inflammatories, no more depending on pills to get me functional. I can’t believe this is how I’m supposed to feel! I can’t put into words the excitement, happiness and appreciation I feel. I’m 41 and feel like I’ve been rejuvenated. Thank you Dr. Marty, you have been the locomotive in this diagnosis, fix, and recovery train!!!!

I would recommend Dr Pyles to anyone suffering from back pain. I have had numerous surgeries, but pain continued until my neurosurgeon referred me to Dr Pyles. I have been pain free. He is amazing!

Was treated as though I was only there for drugs.Would not let me explain anything wanted a yes and no answer.He was very disrespectful,and did this with a smile on his face.He stated he does not give more than 3 oxycodone a day when I told him they lasted only 5 hrs his reply was he knew this I ask him what was I supposed to do and he shrugged his shoulders.I told him I had a rhizotomy 4 years ago and that I had been out of pain for 4 years his reply was"I have been doing rhizotomies for 35 years and I have never heard of that".. I told him it was apparent that he did not believe and our relationship would not work.Do yourself a favor and stay away from this dr.Like I said after 4 years of being pain free,because of the rhizotomy,the pain has returned.

Dr. Pyles and Staff are the absolute best. Caring about their patients is a given. I just can't say enough about this wonderful Dr. I have known him for 30 years, and still think the World of him. He helped me 30 years ago, when I was in an accident, that left me in severe pain. So years later, when I needed his services again, he was there to help. Wish all Doctors had the compassion and caring that he and staff have. Sometimes the wait time might be a little long, but that could be you that he is helping.

Pushed morphine pump. Installed it $ I spent the weekend throwing up at home. Multiple calls to office with no help from Dr. Pyles. 12 days later, after feeling totally miserable, he found a spinal fluid leak at the office $ I went back into hospital for another operation. No explanation for why it happened or how he fixed it. Again more throwing up with no help from office or Dr. Pyles. Two visits to ER later & back to Dr. Pyles office where he went ballistic after we mentioned the ER tried to contact him. He yelled at us for 2 hours & even brought his staff into our visit to back him up which I felt violated my heppa rights. He wouldn't let my wife ask questions & I was in such misery I could barely talk. He jumped up, said he was dumping us & came back with a referral. Another visit to ER & admitted to hospital. He never visited me at hospital & said none of this was his problem. A hospital nurse said Pyles hates calls & questions. We feel our care & treatment was negligent. Beware

Dr Pyles is the best Pain doctor I have ever seen! If you really want to get rid of back pain this is the place!! I could not be happier and I can’t recommend Dr Pyles strongly enough!!

Called and they don't take self pay I guess self pay (cash) ain't worth much they would rather make LOTS of money off the insurance company...... Rather they help someone

Scheduled for a spinal cord stimulator then was told I’m not a candidate until I mention I’m having back surgery. Now I’m a candidate, I cancel may surgery then he tells me no again. I missed two appointments and am willOmg to pay but instead I’m dismissed from practice, I have been on pain meds for 9 years and can’t get a new appointment with a doctor for a few weeks. Dr Pyles does not care he will not give you enough medicine until your next appointment or even give you something to deal with any withdrawal symptoms. He does not care about his patients just beware. Scheduled for a spinal cord stimulator then was told I’m not a candidate until I mention I’m having back surgery.

Push Push Push for stimulators and injections. Most definitely, office staff and nurse practitioners do not know what the right hand is doing. The woman who says she's the building administrator walks around with some dam little dog in her arms back where they do the injections and stimulators. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL OFFICE. I'm so shocked that the board of health hasn't shut them down. What ever happened to the Dr getting to know his patients? They act like they're going out of their way to help you, instead totally screwing you over with there dam dumb procedures. And the Asian lady that represents her company needs to leave her phone at home. Unbelievable the low quality of treatment from Dr and his staff.

They want you to stay dependent on pain meds. They would rather install a pump in your rear end before recommending a surgery to correct your issue even if multiple other specialist and doctors recommend a surgery. If you want to stay on drugs even if there are correction surgeries this is the spot. All they want is your money they don’t care about your life or you as a human being for that matter.

Visited doctor Pyles today with my mother after her telling me of how several appointments have went in the past. Dr. Pyles has horrible manners towards his patience. While we were waiting over an hour to be seen we heard him through the entire building talking very loud and arrogant and just plain out mean to his patients. The nurse that was taking vitals and checking us in agreed on how he was being and stated. A Xanax would be an understatement of what he needs to correct his attitude. This is a horrible place that my mother has been going to for 3 years and still no relief.

I am 62, was in grad school, had never had any health problems, and then was rear-ended at a high rate of speed. Needless to say my life changed that day! I was referred to Dr. Pyles at approx. month 7 post accident. Dr. Pyles and his ENTIRE team gave me hope, when I no longer had any. He is thorough, conservative in his treatment, only recommending the stimulator as a last resort. His treatment plan was clear, I actively participated in that plan and was treated with respect, kindness and care.

Went to this doctor a few months. First visit with Dr. Pyles was great. He did mention his spinal stimulator. The next few visits was with his NP Marty. He did nothing but push the stimulator or a pain pump. I wanted neither and was basically given an ultimatum. Try to force you to do something you don’t want to do. Don’t go here

Dr. Pyles correctly diagnosed my hip pain after other doctors had failed to do so for many years. He treated my right SI joint with outpatient surgery and I am now pain free. I recommend Dr. Pyles to anyone who is patient and will listen and do what he suggests.

I have been a patient of doctor Pyles going on 5 years now. I have had numerous surgeries on my neck To try to repair my vertebrae it was unsuccessful so my only option was to try to control the pain. I searched and found doctor Pyles to be one of the best pain management doctors in the field. He went through my case and when decided the course of action would be a morphine pump implant. This has been a life changing event. If you are in need of a pain management doctor I would highly recommend doctor Pyles

Its impossible to get Angelica to return calls. She is the only one who handles calls. It's so frustrating. I was a patient for 2 years. Marty always has something negative to say. I only saw Dr. Pyles once. They need more qualified staff members. Be prepared to wait longer than necessary.

Dr. Balaraman referred Dr. Pyles for pain management, she said he was the Best. .....He's Rude with an inflated opinion of himself. He overinjected on one side of my neck instead of both sides. What he injected created more pain and severe anxiety. I experienced seizures with my tongue being drawn and not able to speak. PLEASE USE CAUTION I was very frightened . I go back for follow up with Marty Potrawski who was back on page 0, (clueless)....he ran in and out of the room to speak with someone in another room.... unprofessional to say the least.

Just an extremely rude doctor who has the God complex. I probably saw him for about 2 minutes and he called me an addict, which I am not nor have I ever been. I am dependent on pain medicine (hydrocodone/acetaminophen) as I have failed back surgery, scoliosis, and a severe fracture above my rods. He wanted to prescribe methadone. I can only imagine the kind of treatment I would get if I were on that. I would never go back to Dr. Pyles. He is a very rude, arrogant, and unethical man. Giving him 1 star is being generous.

He's good with shots but bedside manner could use improvement. The wait is always more then 1hr they don't really have a good schedule. I think they schedule alot of people for the same time.

Efficient and caring staff. They take interest in your well being

My wife has had back issues for over 10 years. Dr. Pyles is such a wonderful Dr. For the 1st time in years my wife can stand up straight, even walk Walmart, and go out to dinner. Things we all take for granted! Thank you Dr. Pyles for giving my wife her life back!

We just moved to Florida and was referred to Dr.Pyles. We are so happy we found him. Reults are the norm not drugs. Again we are so very glad. A very compassionate pain Dr.for sure.. The whole team there is great.

Dr.Pyles and staff are all courteous, caring and compassionate. More so than other offices in this same specialty I have visited. I feel fortunate to be in the care of Dr.Pyles, who is an expert in his field.

I was very confident heading into my spinal cord stimulator surgery, with the expertise of Dr. Pyles in this field. The permanent placement was March of 2019. At the time of this review, my quality of life has improved greatly, due to finally, the SCS. All my questions were answered both during the trial phase, and pre/post permanent placement. Lee, the Boston Scientific rep has been wonderful as well. Each reprogram brings better results. I would recommend Dr. Pyles to those who have tried all the alternatives, with poor results.

I have tried every pain pill, back epidurals, cortisone shots, steroids, etc...and still had severe back pain everyday since 2013. My last surgery was in Feb 22,2018 and after all that my pain gradually gotten worse. I was referred to Dr Stephen Pyles at Pain Treatment Center in Ocala. From my symptoms , medical records and examination he recommended the SCS trial therapy ( Spinal Cord Stimulator) to see if it would work for me .... and it has !!! The past couple of days I have had NO PAIN at all! I just didn’t think it was possible. The representatives of Boston Scientific ( Ben is the one working with me ) are very informative and extremely helpful. Angelica, and Ben call me every night to see how I’m feeling and how the stimulator is working for me . They truly care and are there with you through out the whole experience.Dr Stephen Pyles is the first Doctor who kept his word when he said I can make your back pain better and He Did . I understand this is not fixing my back problems, but it is giving me a better quality of life! I would recommend This to anyone who is suffering with back pain to visit Dr Pyles and his staff at Pain Treatment Center to see if the SCS therapy is an option for you. I look forward to having my permanent procedure done Oct 11th.... yay! I have had two back surgeries that have failed to resolve my back pain.

Dr. Pyles is a very caring surgeon. The spinal stimulator has been a success so far. I’m surprised at some of the reviews, since my experience with him has been very positive! I highly recommend him. The staff are very courteous & helpful. Techs from Boston Scientific extremely helpful also!

The office is very unorganized. Not enough staff in some areas. Wait times are unbelievable. However he is a good surgeon. Some of the nurses are excellent and with better management this office could be excellent.

After not being able to walk for a few years, Dr. Pyles was able to give me my life back. I can now walk, fold laundry, sit for a dinner with family. Things we all take for granted. Very caring, takes time to explain everything!

I really like Marty anesthesiologist and Dr.Pyles. I feel confident they are doing everything In my best interest and followed through with injection treatments. Some of the staff are less than to be desired. For instance Angelica who was very disrespectful along with my med count which was logged in over 18 pills less than what it was. Maybe it had something to do with her negligence in pouring my medication into the cap of the bottle while counting it. Fortunately it was brought to my attention and I was able to inform and correct them with the accurate count. Overall I give it a thumbs up! I really like Marty anesthesiologist and Dr.Pyles.

HE IS THE BEST THERE IS, HE & HIS TEAM WILL WORK WITH YOU

I was a candidate for the spinal cord stimulator to relieve pain due to inpingement of a nerve in my L5 region. I was having pain through my hip and down through my button on my right side that traveled as far as the back of my knee. After receiving the spinal cord stimulator implant my pain was almost 100 percent relieved instantly. I was able to stand in one position for an extended period of time with no pain. I could bend and twist as normal, and for the first time in almost 7 years I could move and just be pain free. Dr. Pyles, Marty, Le, and all the staff were excellent and I would highly recommend the spinal cord stimulator to anyone looking for a extremely effective alternative to pain and pain medicarion.

I've been in pain since 2014. I've been seeing Dr Pyles for almost a year now. He and Marty have changed my life. I just finished my Nerve Stimulator trial. Both for my left arm pain and my magraine due to 2 damadged nerves in my neck. They used Precision Spectra by Boston Scientific. I got 3 days of no migraines and relief in my left arm pain and numbness. At the end of the trial I was 80% pain free. The Tech support for the Stimulator was amazing, calling everynight to see if it was working and how I was doing. The Staff is just as amazing, I cant thank them enough. Now I am just waiting for approval for my permant Stimulator. If you have a pain issue and cant find a Dr to give you answers I highly recommend this Office. I've been in pain since 2014.

I have had lower back pain forover 40 years. I have tried every possible treatment with no long-term relief. I was referred to Dr. Pyles by the pain doctor near my home. I received in Dr. Pyles' practice. I first met with the Nurse Practitioner, Marty. He was very professional, caring and knowledgable. Dr. Pyles gave me the first hope I have had in many years. He implanted the electrodes for the trial of the neurostimulator and monitored me over the four days of the trial. He also was caring, knowledgeable and very professional. I am now waiting for the psychological evaluation (required by insurance) and to learn how soon I can have the permanent implantation of the neurostimulator. I was fortunate enough to have COMPLETE pain relief during the trial. Since my back pain returned after the trial electrodes were removed, I am anxiously awaiting my final surgery! Nancy M.

If you are looking for a Pain Management Doctor look no further. I had interviewed many PMs. Not only did Dr. Pyles impress me his support staff are second to none. From the time, you walk in the door you know you will be well taken care of. I was looking to have a procedure done. The support staff explained in detail to me in a way that I understood. I have lived with pain for the past five years, no quality of life that changed with Dr. Pyles and his staff. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a PM.

Worse year of my life, after being treated for 2 years for stage 4 lung cancer which had spread to my bones I was referred to Dr Pyles to manage my pain. Filthy office, rude receptionists and a Dr. who has a God complex. Dr Pyles should not be running a pain management office with his lack of compassion and supperior attitude. Good luck to anyone who has to see him to manage pain because they all treat you like garbage. I understand there is a stigma with pain clinics but for the Dr. and receptionists to treat you that way is uncalled for. Wake up, Dr. Pyles and staff because you are providing a service and getting paid for it. Start treating people better.

Had procedure performed by Dr. Pyles. His office staff was very helpful and courteous. Dr. Pyles was very thorough and knowledgeable with a professional bedside manner. I highly recommend this practice and am thankful to be under Dr. Pyles's care.

This is for my husband Gary Callis. Thirty-three years ago I was in a construction accident. Since then I have had three back surgeries and was still in pain. The next twenty years I was receiving injections every six weeks to relieve the pain. Moved to Florida continued receiving injections at another doctor. Heard about Dr. Pyles made appointment (best thing I ever did). He mentioned the spinal cord stimulator. I had the trial period for three days and what a difference (NO PAIN). Had the procedure for the implant in October and has been pain free ever since. Thank you Dr. Pyles for finally giving me my life back. Gary Callis This is for my husband Gary Callis.

Dr. Pyle and his staff has worked a miracle on me! I injured my back about 9 years ago and had a lumbar fission done. Then I had 2 spine cord stimulators in a 3 year time period. The last pain management doctor I was with said there was nothing else they could do, and as of 10/2016, I had been with them for over 6 years. I went to Dr. Pyle in November 2016 and the 1st thing Marty did was schedule me a new CT scan with dye and get me off of the Oxycodone! A few weeks later Dr. Pyle found the main problem and did a facet injection! For the 1st time in almost 9 years I was almost completely pain free! On January 9th, 2017, Dr. Pyle burnt the nerve ending in the facet joint and now I am about 70% pain free! We're working on the other 30% and I truly believe that Dr. Pyle and his staff will have me pain free in the near future! Highly recommend Dr. Pyle! I only wish I was referred to him 9 years ago!!!

AWFUL! I have not one good thing to say about the doctor nor office staff. I highly recommend people look elsewhere for pain management, as this group is very unprofessional and will never take your pain serious! I transferred from out of state where i had the privilege to be treated by the best doctors, with them and their staff being respectful and professional every visit. In comparison, Dr Pyles and his staff is a disgrace to the medical profession, disrespectful, unprofessional, & rude.

The first thing to know about Dr Pyles is that he is a bit awkward to talk to. I've found that some of the best specialists I've had have been that way. He is extremely knowledgeable about his field and he took my pain away witha spinal cord stimulator. In five years only doctor pyles has given me an option other than more meds or dealing with it. None of the traditional procedures worked and I'm too young for traditional back surgery.This was such a wonderful relief! I'd recommend anyone to him

Dr. Pyles is extremely professional and I like the fact that he takes the time to answer my questions and I never feel rushed. I have total confidence in Dr. Pyles and am so thankful for the help he has given me.

After I had knee replace my leg still had pain. They said my knee was perfect. I went to Dr Pyle's and he listen to me. Was very patient with me and cared about my pain. He said it's your back Sandy, not your leg. I couldn't believe it. I suffered for over a year and in just minutes he told me what I wanted to hear. I can help you,and he has. I'm now 99 % pain free. Thank God he listened and I can do the things I couldn't do before. Thanks to Dr Pyle's and Marty for listening .

DR PYLES IS AN EXCELLENT DOCTOR. HE LISTENS TO YOU AND ANSWERS QUESTIONS TO DETERMINE THE CORRECT TREATMENT PLAN. HE IS KIND, PROFESSIONAL AND EVEN HAS A BIT OF HUMOR. :) I HAVE RECEIVED AMAZING RESULTS WITH THE INJECTIONS TO MY BACK. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND HIM TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

Very rude girls behind the desk. You will NOT be seen if you bring children or if you do NOT bring all your medication bottles with you. They scheduled an appointment for me but THEY put in the their system wrong so its MY fault. Will NOT be going there. DIDN'T even get to see the dr.

Dr Piles work his magic on my back and prevented me from having surgery , thank you Dr Piles .

Our special needs son had upper abdominal pain for around fifteen years. Regional medical centers and midwest universities were unable to help. Dr. Pyles boldly treated this case with a spinal cord stimulator. While the cause remains elusive, the pain is now 100% controlled. Thank you Dr Pyles.
