“I came to IPPMC at my wit’s end looking for pain management. My life had been disrupted due to pain medications and pills. I lost my marriage, my friends and I became isolated. I got to a point where I had not left my house for three months. My landlord was concerned with my wellbeing. I was sent to a different pain clinic initially and I was not treated right. I was apprehensive but presented to IPPMC. Since my first visit I felt that they listened to my needs and we had a healthy patient/client relationship. I have been improving ever since. I am more active and my old demeanor is back. I am at a point where I want to be a patient advocate and help others. This is the honest to God truth.”
