Dr. Lee is a lifesaver! I sustained 3 herniated disc's about 18 years ago from an auto accident where I was rear-ended by a drunk driver. Since that time, my pain level began to increase to an 8 or 9 (out of 10) on a daily basis. Living with pain is no joke and affected me physically and mentally. I tried physical therapy, over the counter meds, and holistic approaches that provided minimal relief for brief periods of time. After visiting 3 different doctors, all recommended surgery. A family member found Dr. Lee and in my first visit, he suggested epidural shots to help relieve my pain. He was thorough in his explanations, allowed me to watch the procedure, and educated me throughout the whole process. After my first shot, I felt a level 10 pain for about 3 days, and then it was gone! I was/have been pain free for over 6 months. I can exercise, concentrate, sleep, and feel happy again! He has helped me so much and I appreciate that we found an alternative that has been lifesaving compared to having invasive surgery. Thank you Dr. Lee. No words can capture the relief that you have provided me with!!
I had one treatment with Dr. Lee and it was absolutely amazing. My knee feels so much better, but what amazes me the most is that they not trying to do more treatments and get more money out of you. They are Honest and very professional they care for the patients not their wallets. Thank you Dr. Lee
Depressive here. Wave Pain Specialist greatly improved my life! I’ve suffered from mild depression my whole life. About 4 years ago it went major. I couldn’t concentrate, had severe brain fog, and constant suicidal thoughts. I couldn’t snap out of it. I tried a lot of different medications, TMS Therapy, talk therapy, oral Ketamine at home therapy; nothing helped. The first session I had with Dr. Lee finally brought me back to myself. The suicidal thoughts and brain fog lifted! I was alive again! I’ve had several sessions since and the relief has remained. I’ve got my life again! Thank you, Dr. Lees!
Thanks to these doctors that provide medicine that WORKS. I used them for ketamine which has made a huge difference for my life. Huge!
Dr. John Lee was professional, friendly and explained the procedure. He put me at ease during the procedure and it was a breeze. The ESI has helped my pain reduce tremendously. I would recommend Wave Pain to anyone needing relief.
