Ive had the most relief ive had in eight years
Ive had fifteen surgeries and every doctor ive seen has only wanted to just give me drugs and not really treat the problem. My pain affects my mobility, my mood, my employment, and greatly limits me leaving the house or the social activities I can do. I started coming to see doctor padda in October and hes requested that I do tests so he knows exactly what is wrong, he gives me injections to help with my pain and he has me seeing a chiropractor to help as well. Ive had the most relief ive had in eight years, right now its only one one side but i am looking forward to start working on the other as well. Hes very caring and genuinely wants to help you instead of requesting surgery or writing heavier prescriptions.

He gets results!
I have migraines and back problems, migraines would hit me on a daily basis. I couldnt eat, couldnt sleep, couldnt work and about seven years ago i came to Doctor Padda for Pain Management. Doctor Padda started to get my migraines under control to where I wasnt having them every day, my back pain has also been more manageable since seeing him. He's alot like Dr. House, he speaks his mind.. sometimes things you dont wanna hear but its the truth. He gets results. Sometimes my visits are long, always a crowd but he does his job. He got me on weightloss, he got me from 266 to 181. I highly recommend him to anyone with pain and ive already have many times.

He is a very thorough doctor and show great concern.
I started seeing doctor padda about about a year and lower back pain, it shootsa up to my upper right back as well.It prevented from doing alot of day to day functions and playing with he grandkids. I was referred by my previous pain doctor to come see doctor padda. Since seeing doctor padda ive lost 30 pounds and have went down two sizes. Doctor Padda has really helped me manage my pain with the weight loss and lower back injections. He is a very thorough doctor and shows great concern for you as a patient and takes the time to learn whats wrong with you and how to treat you. He is also very polite and smiles, I think going in the morning is a lot faster and make for better visits and the staff if very good as well, very helpful and caring.

it may come off stubborn but he gets results.
I have scoliosis and other back problems and it causes pain ion my legs and feet, shortly after being a patient with him for a while i also got into a car accident. Currently he does prescribe some meds that i think do help especially at night, he does give me injections as well depending on where im feeling the most of my pain at. I definitely see improvements but by the time my appointment comes around i could use them again. Hes a good doctor but he says what he says and its good to know and understand him and be able to stand your ground and work with him.

Thanks to Doctor Padda I can be active with my grand kids.
I think I came to see doctor padda about six years ago, it started with pain my knees and my back. after seeing doctor padda I have three discs out in my back and torn ligaments in my knee. He gives me injections and today its basically all been figured out. I wasnt able to get around and do stuff with my grand kids but now i can. He is direct and strict, he pulls no punches and when hes says something you gotta do what he says if you want results. Other pain clinics just told me i have arthritis but doctor padda digs deeper than that. My experience here has always been great, staff is wonderful even though sometimes they get really busy.

I lost alot of weight and by losing that I avoided surgery.
Ive been coming to see doctor padda off and on since about 2013, when i first started coming to see him my lower back was hurting. He told me I have Siatica, when i first started my pain was horrible. He told me to go on a diet and i did, I lost alot of weight and by losing that weight i avoided surgery. Now my back hurst a whole lot less because the strain from my weight is gone. Alot of people say he is mean but it because they dont follow his instructions and want to help themselves, if you follow his orders you will get better. My visits are good, if you get here early and are patient he will see you and everything works out, the staff is really nice.

Its gotten a whole lot better because its worth it.
I have pain in my right knee that travel to my left knee, I have to walk with a cane and ive learned to cope with it because i know that its there. It doesnt really prevent me from doing what i have to do, it may slow me down but it doesnt stop me. About a year and a half ago i decided to come see doctor padda, hes sent me to see a chiropractor and tells to me to apply heat to my pain. He gives me injections in my knee or back depending how the pain tavels. I think hes an okay doctor, never had any problems with him. When i first started coming here it was hard buts its gotten a whole lot better because its worth it.

Id say hes the top Pain Management Doctor in St. Louis.
I came to see doctor padda about a year ago because i suffer from chronic pain, its severe in my back, knees and shoulders. I have a nurse that helps me with my pain, shes with me seven times a week and my pain makes it hard to live day to day. Doctor padda gives me injections to help with my chronic pain, he helps me to deal with my pain and I always come in to see him. He really helps to make my pain more managaeable and i know itll never be fixed but he allows me to live with my pain. es precise and dependable, hes accuarte and responsible, hes the kind of person who cares whats going on with you and id say he is the top pain management doctor in St. Louis.

Doctor Padda is great, a very likable guy and helpful.
I started at the Padda Institute about a few months ago, Im in alot of pain and heard he was a good doctor so I gave it a shot. I have pain in my left foot and have alot of back and neck pain as well. My pain makes it hard to move around, to daily chores, all of the stuff im supposed to do. He gives me shots in my back and pain medication to help manage the pain, he also has me trying to lose weight as well. I havent seen any changes in my pain yet but I do exercises to help my joints and the injections last for a good week and makes things more manageable. Doctor Padda is great, a very likable guy and helpful. My goal is to lose weight to help with the pain i have and to get to a manageable place.

Visits vary but they are very good, wait can be long at times, the staff is wonderful and very friendly and helpful. I see the other doctors as well for weight loss, podiatry, and chiropractic and theyre all wonderful

He doesnt hold punches, he tells it how it is.
I have three blow disc in my neck, left knee is totally destroyed, and my L4 and L5 are going into my siatic nerve. I was referred to come see doctor padda four years ago from my primary care doctor. I couldnt cope with my pain, couldnt do day to day things, I also had a home care worker. I couldnt stand for more than twenty minutes, ive definitely seen improvements. I love doctor padda, hes up front and very informative. He doesnt hold punches, he tells it how it is. The waits can be lengthy but its worth it. Id highly recommend anyone to see doctor padda for their pain.

He does all he can to help people with their pain.
I was referred by my primary care doctor to come see doctor padda for my neck, back and legs.Some days are good some days are bad, my pain prevents me from doing my day to day work and prevents me from getting out of bed. He gives me injections to help with my pain and releases alot of that pressure. Im really hoping to get better but its a process and with time i hope to see improvments. Id recommend him to other people who have any kind of pains, he does all he can to help people with their pain.

I hope to have my pain more managed in the next year
I was referred yo doctor padda about 6 months ago by my primary doctor, I have Lupis and i pretty much have pain all over but more in my legs because i had two knee replacements. My pain affects every aspect of my life, i use lots of ice and sometimes heating packs and the pain meds im prescribed. Doctor Padda gives me proper medication and has sent me to see a chiropractor for my pain, he also gives me injections in my back and hip. they help for the first week and tend to wear off after that. The cold weather makes it worse but hopefully with further treatment I can have my pain more managed than it is now.

He's allowed me to feel more alive instead of medicated
i came in on August 29th to see doctor padda, my previous pain management doctor had left and was no longer available to me. I have Fibromyalgia and it spreads all over my body, I also have chronic fatigue syndrome and suffer from migraines. My pain basically controls my life and prevents me from doing alot of day to day routines. He prescribes me pain meds and reduced them drastically, my previous doctor was actually over medicating me and doctor padda has helped me make those adjustments. my pain is about 50/50 right now, im feeling pains but also seeing improvements. Doctor Padda is a great doctor, so intelligent and has allowed me to finally be able to feel more alive instead of medicated. Id absolutely recommend him to anyone who would need it.

It was the best move I ever made
i came in about a year ago and my back was really bad and a good friend of my was a friend of his and it was the best move i ever made. My pain restricted me from doing anything and cold weather doesn't help it any, he gives me shots that help with my pain and allows me to walk without a walker or a cane now. Hes a fantastic doctor and has helped me more than anyone else has, Visits are great and i have no problems with them. Ive seen great improvements and can engage in activities i want able to before.

Doctor Padda is a great doctor and he knows what hes doin.
I have alot of chronic pain and was seeing another pain doctor in chicago that gave me high doses of pain meds and i had scholiosis and i have hardware from my hips to my skull and my pain is nonstop. when my doctor in chicago left I came to see doctor padda, he gives me injections that help but my pain is still there. ive been a patient for five months now and it really helps. Doctor Padda is a great doctor and he knows what hes doin, no other doctor would give me shots but hes really helping. The visits are fine but sometimes its a long wait when i get to see him, when you talk to him its a good experience. Id definitely recommend people to come and see doctor padda.

Doctor Padda is very caring and passionate with his patients
I have chronic pain in my back from an old fracture that didnt heal right, some days i cant do my day to day activities and depending on the weather it takes me even longer to get the day started. I get injections for my pain and they help me to not take narcotics. They really help and i can notice a difference and its almost night and day, It almost feels like i have no hindering pain at all. Doctor padda is very caring and passionate with his patients and a very nice guy. Ive had a great experience, the staff is always pleasant and great to talk to.

I dont know what i would do if i couldnt come here
I was seeing a pain management doctor and st. marys and he referred me to see doctor padda since he left town. I have degenerative disc diesease and I have problems with my hips and migraines from a brain surgery i had. Ive been a patient of doctor padda for 10 years and hes kept me comfortable and I dont know what i would do if i couldnt come here. Hes he is confident and fair and he helps patients keep thier pain at a managable place. The wait can be long and the staff is personable and friendly so its makes the appointments very positive and helps the wait. Id recommend andyone to see doctor padda to help with their and have recommended 3 people over the year.

,My goals are for better mobility, lose weight and to better help myself
I have bulging discs in my back and i have neck issues as well, it make it hard to walk and hard to do chore around the house, it really make it hard to live. Ive been with doctor padda for about a month and half and he gives me injections and medications to help with my pain and counsels me on how to help with my weight. So far its helped out very well and he has recommended the possible use of medical marijuana. He s a very good doctor and hes strict with his patients, keeps people on the straight and narrow. My goals are for better mobility, lose weight and be able to better help myslef.

I dont think ive dealt with anybody as good as him
I started seeing doctor padda maybe over five years ago, I have degenerative disc disease and Fibromyalgia and i had an accident from falling off a ladder. He gives me shots in my back to help with my pain, I also get muscle relaxers that helps me manage it as well. I dont think ive dealt with anybody as good as him, he seems to actually care when most doctors just have you in and out. It takes quite a while sometimes, the staff always has answers, and the visits are worthwhile. I would recommend anyone to come and see doctor padda and I already have.

He gave me back my quality of life again
I had a back injury back in 2016 and i was referred to come and see doctor padda for my back pain and Lupis. My pain left me in bed most of the time and when i did try to move it just caused me pain and I was depressed all the time. with the different treatments he has really helped me alot, now im on the right track and have lost over 60 pounds. He gave me back my quality of life again, I am able to go to more family events and sit through my nephews games

He covers everything and is a real thorough doctor
ive been with dotor padda for six years and its mainly been my kness that have been bothering me. Going up and down steps were really painful and having to walk for periods of time really bothered me. He gave me injections in my kness and out me on a weight loss diet and it helped me tremendously ive lost about 40 pounds and it helped me really good. I really think doctor padda is a good doctor, even in other areas he helps me out with things that a primary care doctor should be doing. it can be a long late but other than that it goes pretty good, he covers everything and is a real thorough doctor.

I use to use a walker and now i dont have to anymore
I cam to doctor padda about three years ago for my lower back and now he also helps me with my knees and my neck. I couldnt really move around much before seeing doctor padda. He gives me injections that helps me move around alot better, i use to use a walker and now i dont have to anymore. He a great doctor and real thorough, he doesnt just worry about the pain but also the diabetes and cancer. He moves really quickly and you dont have to sit all day.
