Pretty much acted like I was drug seeking or a junkie when I've been in pain management for 25 years off and on at my discretion. I have been very careful in not being in pain management too long, once the medications are not working as well I take a break for 6 months at least before going back in so the medications will work again. As I said I've been doing it this way for 25 years. I have degenerative disc disorder and many other problems and have had five surgeries on my neck alone breaking two vertebrae in my neck and one of my lower back and rupturing seven discs which have now fused together. My condition is not getting better and not expected too. If anything it gets worse every year. And for a doctor to talk to me that way about how I have to deal with pain with opioids as if I'm a junkie is unconscionable.

I would absolutely recommend Dr, McGowan, his professionalism, knowledge of my medical issues before speaking to me in the treatment room, recommendations and treatment plan/ plan of action I am more than pleased with! I have already told several veterans about him and they are looking into switching to him. Sadly, I have the gift for the gab however, Dr. McGowan has never rushed me, always has listen very intently and addressed every question or inquiry that I have had without me feeling like I'm on a time clock and that means a lot to me because he doesn't make me feel like I'm just a number he actually makes me feel like I am a patient that he is concerned about and wants to help me get better and achieve my Medical Goals.Big shout out and thank you to Dr, McGowan! I appreciate you so much! You're a rockstar!
