I’ve seen numerous positive reviews and a couple of negative reviews and while I can see both sides, unfortunately I’d have to say I fall into the latter category as well. While extremely knowledgeable, I find him to be somewhat detached. If only he was made to experience what some of his patients experience, he might take a different attitude. Would be extremely curious to see how he would deal with exact same experiences as myself for just one month.

He has no concept of how pain affects a person and doesn't understand what you're capable of even when you tell him. He has completely unrealistic expectations. He wouldn't recognize a serious case of fibromyalgia if it bit him in the butt. People like him are why so many people don't get the help they need. So much for a "specialist"...what a joke. Thanks for making me feel even more helpless.

Dr. Tunks has had me under his care for 20+ years following a construction accident. He gave me my life back and continues to motivate me to carry on. I have embarked on a successful new career and enjoy life on a level I have never dreamed of. He has shown compassion and respect for me and in turn I believe him to be one of the most important people to influence my life.

Dr Tunks is amazing, his indepth knowledge is truly remarkable. Under his care my chronic severe hip and back pain is completely resolved!
Not only has he worked miracles with me, but with several of my friends who I suggested that their family doctors refer them to Dr. Tunks.
Our quality of life has dramatically improved, and many of us no longer need any medication!
Dr. Tunks has dedicated his life to understanding and resolving pain, he is to be commended for his passion of helping others.
