Doctor is very kind and I do feel he cares about his patients. I prefer seeing him when its about making a plan for my care over anyone else. His colleagues are nice but he is the one i trust most. So glad to have him in my court when it comes to my back pain.

Lisa sent me a different patient's filled out "new patient paperwork" with all of their personal information, address, medical history, etc. This is so unprofessional and awful.

I have been seeing Bridget Lahm for a little over a year, I recognize Bridget as a very knowledgeable PA who really cares and who really listens, very kind, courteous and a great sense of humor, I would give Bridget on a scale from 1-10 a strong 11 she’s the best. I would recommend her to everyone. Thanks Bridget for being so great!!! I’d like to thank Dr. Fix for his comprehensive listening and caring, I was new to the area and have had 5 low back surgeries 2 knee replacements, right after I began seeing APMC I was in a bad car accident and lost all feelings in all my extremities, so ended up have to have a fusion on my spine right at the base of my head everyone was so helpful about working with this new problem, it was just nice to have a clinc that really listened and cared. I would also be remiss in not thanking Ben for such a knowledgeable upstanding and caring young man Thank you everyone at APMC, such a God-send of a clinic and outstanding group of people, My heartfelt thanks, Mike O’Brien I have been seeing Bridget Lahm for a little over a year, I recognize Bridget as a very knowledgeable PA who really cares and who really listens, very kind, courteous and a great sense of humor, I would give Bridget on a scale from 1-10 a … More

Dr. Vladimir Fiks, is very kind and pays attention to my concerns that I have. He explained the procedure he was going to perform on my Ankle. During the Procedure, him and his assistant were very patient and explained every steps. Before my Numbing shot, they spayed my Ankle with Numbing spray, then numbing shot and then cortisone shot. It was over and very little to no pain. after the Shot, he had to make sure I was OK. so kind. I really recommend Dr Fiks. Thank you!!!

As a new patient, Lisa was super efficient in getting the ball rolling. Dr Fiks is great. I’m very confident that my pain issues will either be diminished or maybe a thing of the past.

I had my initial appointment with Dr Fiks to discuss my situation and history. He took the time to understand what my issues are and how I came to him. I was seeing two different doctors, one of which has done numerous injection procedures, but doesn’t do pain management and the other clinic that is doing my pain management. I am excited to have my comprehensive care with Dr Fiks. I am nearing the end of my 2 week trial with my spinal cord stimulator and I am seeing very good results. I have been suffering from neuropathy for the past 8 years and in the past couple of years, it has gotten much worse. The relief that I have gotten from the stimulator has convinced me to proceed with having the surgery to get the stimulator.

I feel Mr Shore is invested in my well being, listening to my questions and responding sincerely.

Seem to be a very knowledgeable doctor and a very caring doctor.

I found the clinic and everyone that I talked to very pleasant. I hope to stay with them for a very long time.

Dr Fiks took the time to research my previous records, listen to me talk about the new symptoms and was able to get into my MRI images to show me and explain what was wrong w/ my spine and a new plan to pinpoint the exact diagnosis and possible treatment. I feel more hopeful already.

Being a patient and under the care of the Advanced Pain Management for the past 9 years for my back injury, there are no words enough to thank Doctor V. Fiks and his staff and financial management for their kind support, accurate diagnosis and recommendations.

I have unfortunately have had 2 failed back surgeries which lead me to APMC and Dr. Fiks years ago. He is a great listener and will keep trying to find the treatment that will work the best for you. The staff is friendly and helpful and appointments pretty much run on time. If you are looking for a pain management facility I would give Dr. Fiks a try.

I am so thankful I was able to find Dr Fiks. Their office staff is exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable. Dr Fiks and his staff expertly deal with my intrathecal indwelling pain pump. They inspire confidence and trust. I make a 7 hour round trip every 3 months to see them. And I have never been treated with anything less than the utmost respect and care. Thank you so much.

Not happy with Dr Shore. My husband has seen him 2 times and he has been rude.the 1st visit my husband explained about an accident in 2005 a drunk driver hit him and left him brain damaged and his head in alot of pain.Dr Shore put him on a low pain medication for a week so we went in to see him after a week and my husband was trying to explain again about the first visit.but Dr Shore is not understanding what he was trying to tell him. Dr Shore said by looking at you I can see you are addicted. This really upset us because my husband is not seeking pills he is still having severe pain in his head and just wanted help.how can we trust a Dr if all that Dr wants to do is compare everyone to being Addicks.I hate seeing my husband in pain it breaks my heart all he wanted was help.

I was coming in for a procedure that I had a previous bad experience with another doctor. Dr. Fiks and his staff listened to my concerns and reassured me that they would take extra care with me. The procedure went smoothly and I am so grateful to him and his staff.

Dr. Fiks and the pa;s are very knowledgeable and understanding,willing to spend extra time to find a way to ease your pain. I have had a spinal cord stimulator for almost 20 yrs, which helps the pain quite a bit.

Dr. Fiks and his entire team have helped me continue on my journey of getting fixed and back to work from my work injuries. He always listens and is patient and kind.

he explained my options so l understood them.

As a retired oncology nurse with aback problems, I have found Dr.Fiks a compassionate MD who takes time to talk to you and listen. I am happy with the care he gives.

The very best physician.

From day one Dr. Fix has made me fell like I'm his only patient and has always had best interest at heart. You will never find another doctor with his skill level and I would highly recommend his care to anyone without reservation.

I came, was treated, experienced relief.

Right from the start Dr Fiks seemed to understand what I needed and gave me the confidence that he could help me and he did. I have seen other pain doctors and they didn't help and actually some made the problem worse. He also sent me to physical therapy that was as helpful in getting me strong again.l I've seen others that helpful. In shorts this has been a great experience.

Dr. Fiks is always honest and he doesn't commit to things he can't do.

My husband has been seeing Dr. Fiks for pain and was going well until today. My husband gets these severe pain surges that nothing touches so he goes to the ER for help as he’s exhausted every other treatment. To he was told today that he couldn’t do that or he’d be fired from his practice. He didn’t help him try to figure out what to do when that happens just gave him an ultimatum which really isn’t helpful. My husband is not a drug seeker and has legitimate pain. There’s no reason to treat him this way. My husband has been seeing Dr. Fiks for pain and was going well until today.

Felt comfortable during the entire duration of the visit. Dr. Fiks was very thorough in explaining everything about my injection. I would recommend anybody to this practice for pain management. His medical assistant was very thorough as well.

At first i was leary, but after a couple of visits and procedures my confidence has improved and am looking forward to working with the Pain Clinic in the future.

Dr Fiks is a great doctor He hellped my mom tremendously with a minor surgery to put a block in between vertebrea in her kowe3r back whih helped so much in her pain management. Hios staff is reponsive and caring. So glad we came to this pain clinic versus the one we had been going to. These folks are much more capable of managing chronic pain.

I felt very well cared for. Everyone went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and took the time to make sure I was well informed. I really appreciate you guys.

not enough space for what I need to say here. A lot of doctors and specialists have seen me but then discarded my observations or pain and then passed over me so someone else will treat me. Here is not the case. They listen, treat me with compassion and actually diagnose correctly and then help me cure the problem. I wish I met them years ago.

I was a bit nervous and scared the staff was incedibly patient and comforting!! Dr> Fixs came in gave me a clear understaning of the and after care.I was treated with such dignity and respect and just plain great careThank ou Advanced managment Dr Fix and staff

I had a MILD procedure with Dr. Fiks, treating my L2-L3 spine. Following the two week recovery, my pain lessened overtime and within 30 days I was pain free! He explains everything very well, and was even willing to explain to my Son on the phone.

very pleasent and helpful very good results with my conditions 100% better than my last provider for same conditions

Dr. Fiks and his medical staff are the most caring, friendly, personable, welcoming, fun, efficient and kind team. I always appreciate how well they take care of me when I'm here. I appreciate this team so much for all they've done for me ~ they really care about helping me out. Dr. Fiks listens really well to what I say and is always determined to find a solution. What Dr. Fiks has done for me is changing my life! I am forever grateful!

Best Experience achieving pain free productive happy life. Super clean and high tech equipped medical facility. Highly recomended! Thank you!

Ive been coming to APMC for 20 years. Mt experience is always caring and professional.

Mr. Shore is always helpful and concerned about my pain levels

Provider listened very well to my issues. Discussed a upcoming procedure.

Wonderful as always!

Well served!

ok

showed actual interest and concern for my pain and has always tried his hardest to improve my overall physical and mental well being

good

Dr Shore listens very carefully and answers all your concerns. He takes a deep interest in caring for my needs.He even, on his own initiative, brings to your attention procedures, medications or exercises that benefit my pain management. I have a more complete life now than Ive had in years! Dr Fiks is perfect in his surgical skills and knowledge. Ive had many procedures done by him.

I've been a patient of Dr. Fiks for several years, being treated for neck injury and knee replacement which means I have some complex pain issues. Dr.Fiks and his staff have been an integral part of my recovery, I love that they have a progressive approach to treatment, and look beyong just medication management to a more whole health approach to addressing chronic pain and post-surgery issues.

a lot of pain management

Always attentive to ongoing conditions

excellent

I have been coming to this clinic for about 12 years. I really appreciate that they are willing to work with me on different ways to control my pain. We even have treatment for my fibro that allows me to choose where the pain needs to be treated. They even are able to give me an epidural in their surgical center right downstairs. This means not having to deal with the hospital because everything is in the same building. The PAs that work here are wonderful I would reccomend Mr Shor Or Bridget for anyone. In fact I have sent people here with confidence that teyh would be well taken care of.

very informative good clear information Karman has a nice smile/plesant lady front desk staff vey responsive

He looked at my situation from all angles. Studying my past history and allergies. Having his treatment allows me to tolerate my pain so I can work full time as a Special Education assistant and spend time as a .Grandma.My quality of life means so very much to me. I always feel encouraged by Bridgette because she understands how hard I try to push through. Emotionally I am very grateful.

I've had a wonderful experience getting treatment for my back pain.

its been a very good experience overall. because of Advaced pain they have kept me going. otherwise i would have given up hope.i have gotten in a exercize program.I give Dr. Fiks a A overall

I cant say anything but great things about Dr. Fiks and his team . He is very well educated in what he does and he is very perfessional.

From the beginning, the receeptionist and staff were aware of my problem. They were very polite, courtesy and Professional. Their cliniic is very clean! Dr. Fiks, was Excellent, I'd recommend him and this Facility, without any hesitation. I'm a satisfied patient!

Dr Fiks got me back on my feet again. He would take time to listen to any questions ahead of procedures, worked very quickly and efficiently. I've had different injections to help relive lower back pain from chronic problems. The RFA procedure was huge in letting me get my life back. He works fast and precise in the operating room, and the methods were very effective for me.

Always good, great people!

Staff was courteous and provided excellent care. I now can walk without a cane, have minimal low back pain and have a positive attitude towards the future. Thank you for the ultimate healthcare experince from treatment to followup.

Dr Fiks is highly competent, personally and professionally, and I have benefited from his knowledge, advikce, injections andsurgeries. His clinic is well run.
