Dr. Patrick C Watson, MD

I felt that Dr. Watson had no real interest in me as a person.. I had previously gone some years ago to a phenomenal great caring physician in Pain Management at Kaiser who really tried to help me (and even if the treatment did not help at the time. I appreciated his empathy etc. and warmth. ) Pretty much a bummer experience with Dr. Watson. Maybe he’s a great physician, not sure but we did not just hit it off. I wasn’t expecting anything particular just found the experience disheartening.

He is a very kind guy, who helped me to climb over my pain and I am now working again with the drugs this amazing doctor has given me, and thanks to this kind man I am healthy again.

Dr Watson listened to my whole story and helped sort out what is needed to start lessening my pain. I did not feel rushed nor ignored. The staff was wonderful as was the facility. I am very glad I was referred to Dr. Watson.

Worst "bedside" manner I have ever dealt with. Would not listen to me or review my records to establish my history. Poor, poor physician.

Anything you read about this guy that is good has to be some one he knows or him self seeing him was a wast of time he will say you there is no way you are in pain. Then let you crash off your meds you have been on for a year.

This doctor really socks kaiser has really gone down hill

He listened to me after suggesting a low dose drug to him that I discovered on internet that could possibly relieve my RSD pain. Thankfully, that drug did relieve the pain down to 90% after 5 1/2 years of extreme pain and many minimal invasive back procedures. Yes, he listens.

Dr. Watson is an incredible physician. He is compassionate and always willing to do the right thing for his patients. I was sent to the pain clinic with severe pain in my left flank are around my kidney. Many doctors believed there was nothing wrong but Dr. Watson always thought there was something wrong and never treated my like I was a fake or let alone a drug seeker like other doctors. He promptly returns messages and emails as well as his staff. His staff are some of the most caring and compassionate people Kaiser has to offer. People who speak bad of this doctor should do what they say, go search for someone who will put up with your crap.

I went to this doctor at Kaiser, to help me with chronic severe pain, in which he claims to be a specialist... I have never had a doctor refuse to reply to my messages. His nurse said "Dr. Watson does NOT return messages"? When I am in so much pain that I am laying in a fetal position and I call my Doctors office asking for help, I do expect a return call, e-mail, letter or something... Even God will listen to me and talk with me so why doesn't Dr. Watson? AVOID THIS DOCTOR IF YOU ARE IN PAIN......

The worst!!!Refuses to call or return emails. Office staff waited 6 days before getting back to me!!Won't answer my questions or meet my needs!!I am finding another doctor ASAP!!!!
