Dr. Yakov Vorobeychik, MD

He totally disregarded my concerns and said he couldn't help me unless I had surgery. Back injection by a student failed and was extremely painful when the needle hit a bone.

Curt and rude. I recently saw Dr. V at Hershey Pain Clinic, as I was on severe pain for many months and was appalled at how curt, rude and uncaring he was. Apparently he didn't have time to talk to me because I was told to Google my diagnosis, (what Dr. does that??). I was able to ask him one question as he was dashing out of the room, and was given a glib answer at best. I am not sure why he is a pain Dr. at all since he apparently doesn't like people! I will NOT recommend him to anyone!

I had my first appointment in Mid Jan. 2019. At that time Dr. V and his intern examed my neck area. It was determined I should have injections. Went back Feb. 1 for my appointment. The intern preped my neck area for injections, by marking the sites with a pen. Dr. V came in and accessed the areas. He said...He wasn't going to give me the injections after all. He said, I had too many trigger points. So he sent an RX to my pharmacy. Not only were trigger points not explained to me at my first visit. I took the day off work, Traveled in bad weather and was running late. To top it off, Dr. V did not do what he reccommended at my First visit. I am beyond disappoint- Very Mad I DO NOT reccommend him to anyone.

First off, I have to say I can't believe this guy specializes in pain management! He has the compassion & empathy of a rattlesnake. My issue began w/ a ER visit from excruciating back & groin pain. I already have corrosive & degenerative osteoarthrtis. The MRI done during a ER visit showed several "new" moderate to severe spine issues. A medical term having to do with my SI joint that I can't remember but it has to do w/ severe narrowing. Whatever was going on was causing the most excruciating pain I ever had in my life. I couldnt get in to see my reg doctor for several wks. With this level of pain there was no way I could wait a couple of wks. So, I went with first available. Unfortunately that brought me to Dr. Vorobeychik. The second he came in the door, he had a horrible dismissive attitude. He would not smile, made little eye contact, showed zero compassion or empathy for the level of pain I was in. He simply would not listen to a word I was saying. He didnt take me or my… health issues at all serious. I never in my life experienced that type of behavior w/ a doctor before. In fact, quite the opposite. Again, I can't believe his specialty is in pain management! God help his cancer patient's.

Dr. V is a colleague of my regular doctor, working in the same office. I saw him because he was available sooner than my regular doctor. He was clearly not happy that he was seeing a patient of one of the other doctors and made some very rude statements to me. He wouldn't even answer any of my questions, stating it was unfair that he had to see a patient of my regular doctor. Also, I would suggest he use some deodorant.
