This place is no longer Spine Institute of Amarillo. It's been taken over by a corporation called Integrated Pain Associates. It has been a disastrous takeover. Most of the staff has quit and over the course of the last couple of months they've had drastic turnover particularly with physician assistant nurses. I had a scheduled appointment today but they called me two days ago and told me they would need to reschedule it to the 31st of December because they didn't have enough nurses to cover the patient load. I asked about p... read more

I absolutely love dr Lee. I went in yesterday day before TG and it was just a routine med refill. I go every 3mo. Now this NP says nope every month I said but my copay. Every Month. When’s last time you had spinal injections nurse said 2023 I said it didn’t work. NP says I swear exact words no needles no pills! I maybe fill my pain meds 1x every 3 months same on muscle relaxer. Gabapentin 1x mo. So I’m not a druggie felt like one. I felt the NP was unethical and her behavior on the verge of medical malpractice suit. If she s... read more

My wife was a patient here for severe ostia arthritis. She has had this disabling issue for around 17 years. it is something she will have for the rest of her life.

This place was bought out and the new NP we saw (the previous one, along with other staff including Doctors have left) informs us they will not prescribe her this medici... read more

I was referred to Amarillo Pain Institute by my neurosurgeon for pain management after cervical and thoracic surgery. I have had 4 visits and every one has had an issue. The PA Izzy is a joke. First visit with her she was bouncing up and down off the stool, telling me I needed to go back to neuro and tell him to do more surgery. I explained that I was not going to do that. My neurosurgeon sent me for pain management because lumbar surgery was not likely to help because it is so bad. Izzy proceeded to tell me I did not know ... read more

Been going here for years and I used to love it. They e changed doctors 3 times over the years and each has gotten worse as the changes occurred. Now they ran off the nurse practitioner who I absolutely loved. I have only had apts with the new one twice and she seems very good. For the 3rd time in a row I’ve woken up and was very conscious during sedation as they were injecting my spine and burning the nerves in it. This last one I was very awake for the whole thing and it was very uncomfortable. I told I was “fine and it wa... read more
