Dr. Barry Neil Straus, MD

I knew when I went to him 2 yrs ago I found my home someone who not only cared but listened and emphasized his staff welcomed you 2 a warm welcoming smile I've gotten to them quite well and they are amazing he doesn't always spend alot of time in the room but if you need to talk to him about an issue he puts his pad down and turns all attention on you and then as a team you come up with answers solutions a firm firm plan if you need to adjust it the next month you can he has far and above and beyond and pain mgmt Dr I've met and Brenda i think or Barbra sorry lupus brain is very unique warm caring awesome and then my fav is the blonde at Cartersville I can't remember her name moment lupus brain fog she gives me uplifting movies to watch etc on a scale 1 to 10 they get a 50 the whole team bc they definitely work as a team without judgement

Very good pleasant .cocerned about your pain and does not judge great staff and doxtors the best.

I’ve been going to this clinic. Dr does not take time to listen to Pt. Your script is already printed before going to exam room. I’m on a low dose of pain med and it’s not helping.

I noticed in the waiting room I'm not the oldest person in the room as the other physicians I've gone to plus they worked with me to get my insurance corrected when I was having problems. It takes a while to get the first appointment but once you are seen, easy to get a followup. I had the PRP instead of surgery and he sat with me until I felt comfortable walking.

He listens and implements a plan of care based upon physical findings and current practice standards. What a God sent blessing!

Office staff is uneducated and was rude and unable to resolve a simple paperwork issue. Dr. Strauss only cares about $ and wants cash patients. He met with me for less than 3 minutes over the 20 times I saw him. He has no interest in your pain issues, just wants to pass out prescriptions and get paid.

Was referred to this clinic by my PCP of 10 years due to lingering/chronic pain from a very bad motorcycle accident in 2009. My first (and only) appointment was good - Dr. Strauss seemed interested in honestly managing my pain, asked good questions, conducted a thorough exam, and prescribed medication. I took the prescription to CVS my long-time pharmacy who, after three days, said they couldn't fill some of the medication (Butrans patch) and were working through it with my insurance (Humana) and the doctor's office. I called the doctor's office that day, got a recording, and left a detailed message. I waited another 3 days and called CVS - they said they had left messages at the clinic but nobody had called back. I again called the clinic, again getting a recording, and left another message. A week later same thing - called clinic and left message, no call back to me or to CVS. A week later same thing - message left at clinic, no call back to me whatsoever. I finally got a… live someone at the clinic three weeks after my appointment. The lady said they didn't have time to be on the phone all day with my insurance, that it would be smoother if I just paid cash, and was talking over me and wouldn't give me an opportunity to even explain in detail the issues. I had reluctantly agreed to the referral by my PCP because I needed pain management not just a pill. I think the pain clinic doctor is a good doctor but the clinic staff did not care about me as a patient. The waiting room was full of people that I absolutely knew were there for one reason, and I had hoped that this clinic would help me manage my condition, but in the end they showed that they didn't care about treating - only cared about writing prescriptions and having cash paying customers. I have just today been referred to another clinic by my PCP but I'm thinking about just giving up and living with my pain without treatment. I am almost 60 and had the following injuries - broken left ankle, broken left leg, fractured pelvis, 7 broken ribs (in multiple places), bilateral collapsed lungs, broken clavicle, broken scapula, broken left arm, broken left wrist, severe nerve damage, head injury resulting in bleeding in the brain - all from one wreck where a girl turned in front on me (and I had on full gear). Does anyone know a real clinic that can help manage pain? Does one even exist?

This is simply a pill mill...rude office staff and no care about the general well being of the patient...I wouldn't recommend this office to anyone....they constantly push higher dosages and stronger meds on my 69 year old mother to make a profit...furious with this facility...my mother started out on 20 mgs of hydrocodone and is now on 50 mgs and shots and now benzodiazapines as well...

Dr barry strauss is someone I would highly recommend.

This guy see's 100+ patients a day. He comes in gives me my prescription and leaves. He spends 3 minutes with me. If I attempt to ask him questions he becomes agitated. This guy is nothing but a pill mill, see as many people as he can.
