I see Dr. Scherliss and team about once per quarter for facet blocks. This time I had an experience with an entirely new team, from check in to recovery. There is not a person on that team that doesn’t deserve five stars. Truly a wonderful group of people, both professional, courteous, efficient, and genuinely caring. Thank you!!

Dr. Scherlis operates an outstanding service. From the checkin to the proceedures and checkout every step is carried out by a great team of professionals. I have been cared for by TVPC for over 20 years and have never been disappointed by the services received. Cws

I received an epidural from Dr. Scherlis yesterday. cannot say enough about the staff and the doctor himself. I have been to the Pain Clinic for several years and have never had a problem with the staff or the doctor or the actual treatment I received. Yesterday he spent some time with me in the exam room before we went for the procedure and his bedside manner made me feel so comfortable, and I was totally relaxed when I went in for my procedure. I have nothing but positive reviews for Dr. Scherlis and his staff from the receptionist all the way to the nurses who get you prepared for a procedure and then the doctors and anesthesiologist and nurses inside the treatment room everybody is wonderful.

I've been getting epidurals at TVPC for 25 years.. They have helped my back and leg pain tremendously. Dr. Scherlis is absolutely the best Dr I've ever had. He's very skilled and professional but also very caring. His staff is also the best. I highly recommend TVPC.
