No time for patients, just procedures. His staff always knew when my insurance would pay for another procedure. I visited him about six times as a patient and probably spent less than 5 minutes talking to him. It was always a nurse or a PA.

Dr. Gibson cares about the total wellbeing of all of his patients. He is thorough and takes time to listen to the patient. I have been going to him for 5 years and my pain is very managed, The epidurals and radiofrequency lesioning often called "procedures" have improved my health and gave me a better quality of life.

After 20 years of chronic pain, I am finally under the care of a Pain Management Specialist. I found Dr. Gibson extremely helpful and with a great understanding of my pain and my medications. I am starting to explore my options and look forward to a long relationship with a good doctor. He is the kind of doctor that actually listens.

Dr. Gibson is one of the finest people and most caring doctor any patient could ever want. I have been going to him since 1996. He has helped me to be a more functional person because he has helped me deal with chronic pain from multiple disk surgeries. He cares about his patients enough to stay informed of the current technologies in Pain Management and he does what it takes to help each individual patient to cope with his or her specific problem. Since chronic pain can bring on depression, he has an on staff Psychologist, Dr Jay Heisler, who is just as knowledgeable and caring. Each professional in this office works together to create individualized programs to help patients achieve some functional level of management for their particular pain level. All they expect is that a patient be compliant with the treatment plan(i.e keeping appointments, taking meds as directed, etc.).Dr Gibson will work with each patient, to find a course of treatment that is right and that works for him or

He doesn't take time to evaluate a patient and all of their symptoms properly before prescribing their medications. I am very unhappy with his techniques. He also doesn't give the patient all of their options when deciding treatment.

I will be writing a formal letter of dissatisfaction Re: this M.D. to the Board. Have been a patient of his for many years Approx.3, and only saw him ONE time in the exam room. He did procedures to me that I had to BEG to see him regarding these on the first one he did, his nurse always said he was to "BUSY to see me, or he was in doing a "PROCEDURE" and therefore I could not see him to explain what he was going to do in my case. I would see him for 1 to 3 minutes before he did a procedure on me in his clinical procedure suite, before the anesthetist would put me to sleep. I last visited him on 1/8/2008 and asked to see him before another procedure was done and he refused by saying he was to "BUSY to see me, but the nurse was ready and willing to make an appt. for this particular invasive procedure. I told her I would NOT see him unless I talked to him first,esp. since this was a NEW procedure on me and she said she was sorry, but he WOULD NOT SEE ME. WILL BE FOLLOWED UP TO THE MAX.
