Richard S. Plowey, MD, Keystone Pain Consultants and Interventional Spine Specialists - Pain Management in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

“Very friendly placed, great doctors just had my shot in my neck. Hopefully, everything works right, good place to go”

— Thomas Miller

“Doctor Plowey was the recommended Doctor for back pain issues once the MRI showed lower lumbar bulging disks. (The xrays for Orthopedic referral only showed arthritis.) It has been a bit of a process with two confirming nerve blocks first. The second block was more effective and lower on the spine. Once the surgery was done to burn the nerves through these facets something remarkable happened. No pain, none. My posture immediately was affected. Once this straightening was noticed, I sat taller, walked taller and began to do movements I had avoided for two years. I get to see Doctor Plowey next Friday as a followup to let him know my good news. Being that I have relapsing-remitting MS, anything that affects my posture also affects my gait. I have to work hard to get back more movement but with his expertise, I am on my way without pain!”

“Dr. Plowey and his staff at Advanced Pain Medicine have provided me with safe, responsible and effective pain relief. After suffering for years with Trigeminal Neuralgia coupled with complications from a broken ankle, I was at the end of my rope. Dr. Plowey and his staff restored my quality of life and restored my faith in the medical community. My concerns, fears, and medical history were actually heard and the team worked with me to develop an effective treatment plan. I was given plentiful information and options, and felt, since day one with this practice, that I was being provided the highest quality care custom fit to my concerns and lifestyle. Highly recommended.”
