I feel completely secure and confident in the care I receive. I'm able to see Dr. Tabbaa, when I need to, within a matter of days, and My Chart messages are answered within 24 hours. I can't think of a single thing I'd change. Thank you!
I love my care provider he's attentive and shows concern when working on a resolution to the many issues I'm confronted with daily
I was skeptical of this appointment because of prior pain management care at a different facility (in ***) many years ago. Dr. Tabbaa and his team were personable, kind and they listened to and heard me. I felt not only welcome and cared for, but that they really wanted to help me resolve my pain. They did and will help me. I see a light at the end of the very long tunnel I have been in for 6 months. Dr. Tabbaa are patient allies and advocates and have changed my mind about pain management services.

After years & years of seeing Dr's he Is the FIRST & ONLY one who truly understood my pain & what It does to me on a daily basis. He Is THE ONLY ONE who truly listened to me & prescribed me a wonderful medication that without I could not function on a daily basis. He's just simply a wonderful man with a heart of gold. His staff is wonderful as well. They always meet my needs for appointment scheduling & are very professional & courteous. ***
