Jeanie
"Since the age of 17, I have had a gnawing, aching pain in my left hip region. The pain made it difficult for me to walk and I had difficulty participating with my child's activities. I cannot count the number of times I have been in and out of the emergency rooms for my pain. My treatments have been pain pills and they told me there was nothing they could do for my pain. I even underwent an extensive GI workup, which did not find any answers. I was referred to IPPMC and, after my second visit, I can say I have total pain relief from my chronic pain. Thank you."

"I have been with back pain for 43 years after a motor vehicle accident in 1973. I received chiropractic therapy for many years and to no avail. I received acupuncture for six months and nothing seemed to help. My primary care doctor referred me to a spine surgeon which I declined. Six months later I went back to my doctor asking for further help. She then referred me to Dr. Kowalkowski. I was treated on my first visit and I had no pain after that until six months later. After I returned for a second treatment, I can say, at this time, I have 99% reduction in my back pain. This is the best I have felt in 43 years. I would advise this clinic to anyone."

" I have been really happy with the team at interventional Pain and Physical Medicine Clinic. I went and saw other doctors, including pain doctors, for my pain. I was told after treatment that I would have to live with my pain. I decided to pursue additional assistance, since I was not satisfied with my pain control. I found Dr. Kowalkowski through one of his patients. Since I have been treated here, I have been real happy. I can now get along with a pretty normal life since I have reduced back pain."

"Dr. Kowalkowski treats the source of my pain, not just the symptoms. Even though there is no cure for my pain, I feel better knowing that when it flares up and restricts my activities, I can see Dr. Kowalkowski to get the relief I need. After treatments, I am able to do most activities without using prescription pain killers. Thank you, Dr. Kowalkowski! "

" I have been dealing with back and leg pain for 2-3 years. It affected my ability to walk, climb stairs and activities of daily living. After trying every route, I came to Dr. K. I give Dr. K credit for finding out that I had an aortic stenosis that needed surgery. If this had been over looked I may have had deadly consequences. Since having treatment for my back and abdominal stenosis my quality of life has increased immensely. Every time I have a pain I know Dr. K is going to find out what is the basis of the problem."
