    I started going to Dr. Waring years ago and the staff has always been very helpful. I have also had success from the treatment of Dr. Waring. Unfortunately he is now very difficult to get in to see and basically is at a 5 week waiting period. That's the bad part. When your in pain, this is not something you can plan or schedule in advance. 3 day ago I found another Doctor that could perform the same procedure, but needs the past medical records from Dr. Waring. Two days ago I spoke with the woman hadling this and I was told it could be sent over the following day. I was told on the phone today from the woman at the front desk that it would possibly be a week turnaround time to get these records and I would have to pay for them. This is the first I am hearing of this. She also informed me that I was on the list since there were so many depositions and attorney that required their service 1st!!! Needless to say...Not happy

    Great Experience. Dr. Waring's staff was wonderful, and Dr. Waring himself took his time with me and made sure that I understood everything. Procedure was successful and I have never felt better. I would recommend Dr. Waring to everyone.

    If you are really in need of interventional pain management, not just drugs, this is a wonderful physician. I have been to him for the past 2 years due to a back injury that I eventually had surgery for. very knowledgeable and helpful. you do sometimes have a long wait though. has been worth it!

    Waited in waiting room longer than the appointment. Only saw the dr's assistant, never even spoke to the dr. Was advised that I needed an MRI before anything could be done. Went to an MRI place that this dr. does not "approve" so then they sent me a 350.00 invoice. This was a bill for speaking to the assistant for 5 minutes when I was told to get an MRI. Scammer. Stay away from this "doctor"

    Doctor and staff very nice/friendly. Very busy office but not too much of a wait on 1 and only visit so far. The doctor is very busy and usually tied up with injection procedures so when he visits you it's very quick. He is very knowledgeable about his field and takes the time to explain everything. His Phys. Asst. Dan is wonderful, he is just as knowledgeable and very nice and concerned. He does a lot of the doc's work and is just as capable, I believe he is working on his doctor's degreee also. Overall a great office experience with my back problem. It's nice to know there are still professionals that take pride in their skill and can still have a nice bedside manner.
