Dr. Chavin done such a extremely thorough job and was so helpful .He covers everything and has found things other doctors haven’t found or went over with me. Him and his whole staff has been so helpful and kind during this process. The injections he gave me in the neck were spot on and helped the pain so much. I feel like I have a better quality of life thanks to Dr. chavin.

Terrible! I went there on the 22nd ..Dr.Chavin was a complete a**! I went there on the 22nd! I recorded the visit where he accused my parents of molesting me as a child since I’m on klonopin. Then he went into a rage because he is Jewish (which I have nothing against) and my ex husband being from Palestine. So he went off for a little bit about religion then proceeds to tell me I need to go to church. Well today I get a call to come in for a random pill count and UA for tomorrow which I said fine. Well it was all fine until the lady forgot to hang the phone up and I heard everything this doctor was saying about me and the driver I had since I was suppose to get a injection that day. Luckily the lady that called forgot to hang the phone up so I was able to record EVERYTHING this terrible doctor was saying about me! He is very VERY disrespectful and very very RUDE! I will be sending all this to the medical board. No doctor should treat their patients like this! Luckily like I said I… recorded it and there is no way he can deny anything. While the nurse thought she had hung up the phone and me hearing and recording everything I then hung up after they got done talking about me I immediately called back to let them know that I heard everything that was said about me and at first she tried denying it which she couldn’t because I repeated word for word what the doctor had said. Then she kept saying she was sorry to me. Sorry doesn’t fix it! But the medical board will! I repeat DO NOT GO TO THIS NUTCASE OF A DOCTOR! He will treat you like a piece of trash!
