Southeastern Interventional Pain Associates Surgery Center - Pain Management in Atlanta, Georgia

“Does anyone know why the pain clinic closed? I called to reschedule my appointment with Dr. Singleton three days before my appointment and, they told me i couldn't because the office was closing. I had to scramble to find a new pain doctor. Not only did they not contact me to let me know this was happening but they also, didn't help me find a new doctor. I could sue for malpractice and negligence. You can't just stop the medicines he prescribed cold turkey, without titrating down because of the high dosages. It can cause death if not handled properly. I am very angry at how Doctor Smith and Doctor Singleton have handled my case and driven this once great pain clinic into the ground. Doctor Sheehan and Doctor Rollins were the greatest doctors and it's so sad how the owners of the practice made them leave and left us with the other horrible doctors.”

“UPDATE.... The person who responded to my review said to please call or email them for further details. I emailed them and they have NEVER responded to me. Just an FYI. I had been seeing Dr. Rollins for the past 8 years or so and he was amazing. I started seeing Dr. Smith about a year ago and it has been hell. Without even talking to me and seeing how my current meds and treatments were working she immediately started force tapering me. I am a very compliant patient. Never missed an appointment and never failed a drug test. About a month or so ago I was at my ropes end with my pain so at my last appointment I asked her if she was going to take all of my oral meds and she said YES. That would leave me with only my pain pump. It barely touched my pain. She also told me at my first 3 appointments that she just needed to bring my meds down a bit to show compliance with the DEA she said if it was too much she'd put me back on my regular dose. Needless to say she did not. She's a liar! She is hands down the worst doctor I've ever seen. A pain management doctor who doesn't actually treat pain. Stay away from this doctor.”

“Dr. Stephanie Smith is absolutely AWESOME! Former doctor was pleasant, but was not managing pain well - which is not good for a "specialist". Dr. Smith introduced options that I had no idea were possible - even experiencing immediate pain relief. Her care and attention to detail are phenomenal. Oh and the new option to send narcotic prescriptions directly to the pharmacy? What!!!! This was possible? Nice to see the office get some hi-tech upgrades. Never understood why the old office was fiddling with paper. 1 star missing from this review because the office staff are unable to keep up with the load - get them some help if possible.”

“My husband had been seeing Dr. Rollins for many years, than started care with Dr. Smith. I wasn't sure at first but honestly she has given the very best care in all 10 years of our Worker's Comp injury nightmare. She is the 1st & only Dr to take his many issues head on, seek to get answers and best laid plan of action. I truly thank her from the bottom of my !!! The staff have always been pleasant, not always easy to get communication through...but it does get addressed. They have a large amount of patients, hence sometimes a delay in communication. THANK YOU, DR. STEPHANIE SMITH for trying to give my husband back some of his life. I'm forever grateful!!!”
