Dr. John Edward Olenczak, MD

I could write a book about how grateful I am to have been a patient. I would be in a wheelchair if not for Dr Olenczak. Hello from Florida ???

Stay away from him terrible experience Put me through torture He messed up my back permanently. Should not be practicing pain medicine

Dr. O is a logical and analytical doctor who works well if you give him a clear, to the point area and overview of the problem. In this way he spends all the time needed to get right to what is needed. I would imagine it is difficult to have a 100% success rate as there are so many nerves in any given area where there is pain. Overall I feel he does a great job as I have needed his assistance for years. I would not be walking had he not intervened. Thanks Doctor o!

This pain doc makes ya feel like your wanting pain meds for the purpose of selling or because you have a drug addiction , i was in the worst pain he had me on meds every 12 hrs and i called repeatedly to tell his nurse it wasnt working anymore he told me to deal with the pain lets just say i ended up in the er within 8 days they amputed my right leg ... So i switched pain docs hope he never has pain

Dr. Olenczak is by far the worst doctor I have ever seen. He is rude, flip, insensitive and treats you as though you are some junky trying to abuse prescription medication. I found him to be inappropriate and rude and unwilling to listen at all. He did not give my choices for the management of my pain. I was told that he told that he was going preform some procedure on me. I was so upset after my appointment that I called a filed a complaint with the office manager. It was very obvious that this went on deaf ears and she did not care one bit. I had never been to pain management before and am so upset over how I was treated that I fear going to another one despite my agonizing pain. If you are considering this practice, I beg you to please find another pain clinic that actually wants to help people who are suffering.

I find dealing with doctor a total mystery. I have serious, verified back problems stemming from a back operation. But I have yet to have Dr. Olenczak consistently help with my pain. He wants to do extra or additional things all the time - patches, injections, even a reference for a sleep study because my lips looked blue! All I need is 5mg of Oxycodone 30 tabs about every 60 days. Not exactly what a pill addict is looking for! I just want relief periodically when I do too much or know I am going to be extra physically active. Is it too much to ask to be able to enjoy a vacation or time with the grandchildren?

Dr.Olenzack treated me like a drug addict the moment he saw me. I believe he made that decision even before then. I am a Christian who NEVER abused pain (or any other) medication in my entire life, nor would I publicly lie about him or his abusive treatment in my case. He changed my medications to something much too strong, then he and his nurse ignored my phone calls of concern. I was hospitalized because I had stopped breathing in my sleep. My wife told the ER doctor, she had been lying awake the past several nights listening to me breath because my pattern had changed drastically. His response to my health doctor's concern the following week was, quote: "He's a drug addict and mixing medications...that is why he is sick and was hospitalized." unquote. My doctor was "furious" at his remarks, and did a drug test on the spot. She said she wanted to "rub the report in his face". If I weren't a Christian, I would have sued him for over-medication, hospital bills, and slander! … But for me, he's nothing but a bad memory of a bad pain doctor. I am seeing a new one now who is totally the opposite of this type of doctor. Thank God there are still a few good doctors left. Just in case you (Dr.) read this, I did successfully end all pain medications in just 12 days. I turned in the remaining poison you prescribed to me, to my new doctor. A total of 49 whole and 7 halves of the total 60 pills were destroyed. I did it without you, a pain clinic, nor any other medications. You said you "wished me luck if I could do it on my own", and I did!! God is good to all who love Him! My new pain doctor says I am "one remarkable person", and he is glad to have me for a patient...and I am glad to be away from a doctor like you. (^-^)

Very thorough, excellent care, great care at Cumberland valley surgery center

I saw him 2 times, the first,and the last. What he truly is, an arrogant nerve stimulator salesman. I have attempted to use this device 2 times unsuccessfully before I ever saw Olenczak (you can call him doctor, not me). I told him it did Not work for me. He insisted that he implant this device in me again, using his technique, or "you can go find another doctor, I am not going to treat you." He told me to read the article on the wall about him and his procedure, big deal, there is nothing special about him or his procedure, only in his mind and his wallet. The only reason that I give him 1 star, is because there is nothing less. I have suffered with back pain for 30 years until another Doctor promised I would have "no more pain after his surgery," that left me totally disabled and on pain meds. for the rest of my life, at least this is what I have been told by the doctors at John Hopkins. I have tried Every available option. Then, worse yet you go to someone like Olenczak that makes… you feel like you are a junky looking for drugs if you don't agree to his invasive procedure. I requested my office records, which were nothing short of "LIES". Try to get medical records changed. Something needs to drastically change in the field of Pain Management. He should not even be allowed to practice medicine. I personally do not even believe a positive review about this man. Naturally. this is just my opinion, but it looks like I am not alone......

This doctor is a liar and has no compassion for his patients. He will not listen to a patient because his mind is made up that they are a dope head. He also bad mouths you to other doctors. He should not be allowed to practice medicine. If you are suffering with pain or complication do NOT go to this man. I would not take my dog to him.
