I've been with Dr Brooks for several years and wouldn't go anywhere else. Dr Brooks and Bridgett Coyne are knowledgeable, great listeners and truly care about their patients well being. As one knows that must see a doctor for chronic pain, we all are very aware of being judged or feeling less than others. Not once have I ever felt that way. It's been great to be in the care of someone who cares more about the patient and their overall well being than speeding through their day.

Dr. Brooks is an amazing person! He takes the time to listen to you and addresses all of your concerns. I have NEVER felt 'rush' or unheard by him or his staff. His procedures are life changing and professional! Gretchen is also amazing at helping you with any referral problems or needs! I can't speak highly enough about this establishment or the people who work there!

I believe his out for money only as well. I told him about whats was going on with me and agreed to do a procedure which never happened. Staff is very unknowable to any insurance issues and staff has NO idea of what's going on at all. Never answers the phone or gets back with you and when they do the are very rude. I went to Denver and would not recommend him to anyone. Go to Denver..

Dr. Brooks is a great doctor. He is very intelligent and cares about me. He is the first pain doc out of 6 in just over 5 years that listened to me, he then figured out the problem and treated it with good results. No, I am not miraculously healed but with time and further treatment, I will be much better off. I will say this, if all you want is drugs and not a improvement of you pain, then no, he is not your man. The only time I saw so slightly tmpatient behavior from his staff was when a new patient was throwing a fit for all in the waiting room to see. The man was claiming he accidentally dropped all his pain meds down a toilet. He was the one who shouted out his medical history by the way. Apparently this was a recently received RX, and when the man was refused a early refill, he got very angry. In my case Dr. Brooks listened to me when I told him I did not want to be dependent on medication. He even offered me a rub on compound paste that works, why in 5 years was he the first?

Dr. Brooks is amazing! I'M active duty Army and the base hospital royally messed up 3 surgeries, the last one resulting in the loss of my testicle. He has steped up and has taken all means neccesary to ensure that I recieve the proper treatment and in a timley mannor! He is very descriptive to help me learn more about my issues, but most of all he is proffesional and courteous! Dr. Brooks is also assisted with an incredable staff who is there to greet you with a smile and they to are very proffesional and polite, you have a very warm welcome with them there! Robert N.

I was treated by Dr. Brooks who took the time to listen to my concerns about my severe pain. He worked with me to come off the many pain medications I was taking and really helped my pain through steroid injections and one new medication for nerve pain. He really understands pain and how it impacted my life. He is a great doctor.
