Allied Pain & Spine Institute

Dr. Petros and everyone that has had my back to get me the surgery i needed and fight workers comp with me and won. They have been amazing and i couldnt ask anything more from them for having my back and Ericka is freaking awesome! She's also done a phenomenal job on my case and couldnt thank her enough. The only issue i had was with Dr. Alocozy for being rude to me the one time i met her and accused of me of lying by far the most unprofessional act ive ever seen, besides her ive nothing but respect for everyone else that has helped me and thank you for working with me.

Dr. Chang has helped me a great deal. She is very good at what she does as an acupuncturist and is also a nice person. My back feels much better after being treated by her.

Allied Pain and spine Institute goes above and beyond in their of you. They are creative and work hard at getting insurance companies to approve procedures. Safe and clean environment. The phone system has improved and I find staff will work with me on scheduling. Everyone I have seen has been excellent.

I have been getting acupuncture with Dr. Chang. She is not.only a lovely person but an excellent acupuncturist. When she inserts the needles I can barely even feel it. I appreciate her gentle touch. When I had an issue a few weeks ago, she got a laptop out and made sure I was scheduled twice in the next week so she could follow-up, even though it made her schedule super tight. It's been a long time since I have found any doctor that cares as much as she does.

After battling CRPS for a decade, I have finally found a reliable, compassionate, capable and trusted care provider in Allied Pain And Spine. Complex Regional Pain Syndrome is, well, very complex, and, in my vast experience as a pain patient, navigating the medical and insurance system can be an absolute nightmare of beaurocracy and dismissiveness, but APSI has been a safe harbor of humanity and understanding. I shudder to imagine where I'd be without the effective treatments, genuine kindnesses, and depth of understanding I've found in this place. They are knowledgeable about an extremely difficult disorder, they are geniunely caring individuals who have helped me in some of my darkest hours, they are flexible and understanding with the limitations my condition places upon me, and they have helped me regain a level of functionality I had previously lost hope for. Stage 3 CRPS presents in me as spasms and debilitatingly painful seizures of my right limb, but because of their knowledge, care and dedication, I've been able to walk, drive, and enjoy life again more than I ever thought I would be able to. I would give them all the stars in the sky if I could! :) Thank you, Allied Pain and Spine for helping me live my life again!

All the Doctors, PA's, Assistants and office staff are so polite,friendly, always greeting with a smile. The offices are clean, wait time are reasonable. My care team really cares about my injuries and have been an advocate with insurance to get me the treatments needed. You're in good hands with Dr. Petros and his team.

I am pleased to give a five-star rating to Allied Pain & Spine Institute. I was referred to Allied Pain by my orthopedist for my pain management not requiring surgery. I have been working with Dr. Polsunas and feel in such good hands. He is compassionate, listens, and offers options/solutions to my concerns. Allied Pain & Spine offers several alternatives without having to search for other venues. I have also worked with Dr.Chang for acupuncture with great results and most recently with Dr.Soler for chiropractor treatment - after two sessions I feel so much better. Thank you all for improving my quality of life!

Doctor Celine Chang was a very professional, nice, energetic, able to answered all the questions acupuncture doctor. She was so nice that she even sacrificed her lunch break for my treatment. I felt great right after the first treatment of the acupuncture by Doctor Chang. Thank you Doctor Chang! I would love to recommend Doctor Chang to anyone who is looking for acupuncturist.

I was in a accident and was very hesitant to go beyond physical therapy for my back, actually terrified of needles “ still am” my back got even worse day by day I finally got courage to get medical treatment epidural for my back and honestly was in the best hands with these doctors. I’m so thankful for these doctors and this office they are caring and helped take some anxiety away! Thank you allied pain & spine office from the bottom of my heart I’m thankful for the great care and compassion.

I want to spread my praises about Dr. Petros. I've been a patient for almost 2 years now. It's been a long process (which backs can be), but I've come thru with flying colors! All of this is due to Dr. Petros' excellent care, concern, and recommendations for my health. I truly think he is one of the last doctors who will fight for you and your care when dealing with Workers Comp.
I trust him 100% with the decisions he has made for my health.
If I could give more than a 5-star rating I would!

ALSO TO BE NOTED...

Dr. Chang is the best! I had acupuncture with another doctor when I first injured my back. This doctor didn't help my condition at all. Dr. Chang on the other hand was totally the opposite. I felt GREAT after every session. Whatever issues were bothering me for the day disappeared after a session with Dr. Chang. She knows her craft and what she is doing. I HIGHLY recommend her! She has been an important part of my recovery. THANK YOU!!! Dr. Chang!

I am 53 year old active and healthy female who all of a sudden has been dealing with serious back pain that has completely turned my life upside down. I recently had an MRI of my Lumbar spine and it shows some spine issues. I’ve been in serious pain and limited in my movements for two full months.
I called Allied Pain and Spine Institute and I was very fortunate to get an appointment.
The office staff was extremely helpful and supportive. Dr Petros spent time asking questions and really listening to my story.
He clearly explained my back pain management options and why he would recommend those steps. He took the time to work with me.
The staff really want to help you with your pain/back problems.

I would highly recommended this clinic.

Everyone is very very friendly. My scheduled appointments are usually on time, give or take five minutes. You don’t have a long wait. The doctor that I am seeing, Dr. Keyme, Is one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. I should say kindest doctors I have ever met. He is very patient he listens and explains things extremely well. The assistant nurses are very nice, they seem to be very knowledgeable also.

I have been a patient of Allied for several years, receiving several epidural injections to control/ease the discomfort in my lumbar spine. In Dec. 2021 I underwent a MILD (Minimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression) procedure performed by Dr. James Petros. Prior to the procedure, it was uncomfortable sleeping on my back and standing or walking for a long period. After the procedure, I have been able to very comfortably sleep on my back and can now walk and stand without pain. I have been greatly impressed with the results of my MILD procedure. I am thankful that the Doctors of Allied recommended and then performed the procedure.

I was looking for the acupuncture treatment for my car accident injuries and got referred to Allied. I had 8 sessions with Dr Chang. She was so kind and paid detailed attentions to understand my issue. What the most amazing part is I got better after just one session!!! I finished all sessions and got so much better!! Highly recommended!!

I recently started seeing Dr. Celine Chang as she was highly recommended by the doctors within Allied. I have been having wrists, elbow tendinitis for a while, after seeing Dr. Chang for 3-4 treatments, I started experiencing big improvement. Personally I have needle phobia, and was misdiagnosed by other acupuncture clinic a year ago, I really don’t want any needle near my wrists. Dr. Chang applies fine acupuncture needles on my scalp, she is very skilled and does it quickly to minimize my fear of needles.

I have been going to this clinic for about 4 years. They are have some good and caring people and most of the doctors are pretty awesome and understanding. Dr. Watford has been an awesome help and friend through my disabilities and Dr. Petros has also been an faithful and dedicated physician through a lot of my physical and mental issues. I would totally recommend anyone who needs support for their chronic and acute pain.

Aline and Spine is great over all, but their department in Physical Therapy is one of a kind. They are the reason I look forward to treatment and I make sure to not to miss any PT. I have visited to multiple location for PT including Concentra and there is just no comparison. Junior is who I do my Physical Therapy and I highly recommend him.

I love this place. Dr Petros was fabulous. So easy to talk to and explains things so well. He has a great approach and helpful ideas for preventative, minimally invasive treatments. I’ve struggled with back pain for 30 years and finally feel like I have someone that will help me.
The staff is also very friendly, helpful and easy to reach. Gus assistant Christine is very helpful and wants to make things super easy for me.

I’m so grateful for Dr Petros. He is the most caring , compassionate and empathetic Dr I have ever met. He is truly invested in the well being of his patients. He’s extremely knowledgeable and a very good listener. His focus is always on what’s best for the patients. I suffer from a chronic pain that resulted from a car accident and I tend get frustrated at times but every visit I have with him I walk out feeling encouraged and well taken care of. I appreciate his calm manner and positive outlook and he will stop at nothing.
If you are looking for a Dr that is going to devote time and attention to you I highly recommend Dr Petros!!!!

I cannot say enough good things about the doctors and staff here. If you want to have a highly qualified medical team that genuinely cares about your well-being and recovery, go here. The doctors are eminently qualified in their field, and they are excellent human beings who actually take the time to follow-up with you. The staff are friendly, patient, and talented at helping you select the best doctor for your needs and preferences. The APSI Google Play phone app allows you track your symptoms and report them to your doctor daily or weekly basis -- um, amazing. You will have access to the best available medical care at this pain clinic. My only wish is that I had come here sooner. A major thanks to Dr. Yu for helping me find answers and get well.
