The care I have received here has been great. The office staff and the doctor really make me feel like I’m an individual and they care and are concerned about my health.

I was referred to the clinic by my neurologist in October 2006 at which point I was feeling both physically and mentally completely debilitated. I had been suffering from the effects of an autoimmune disease that had robbed me of my livelihood and personal life. After three years of getting worse, I thought the light at the end of the tunnel was extinguished forever. But, Dr. Petraglia and the rest of the staff have not only re-lit the light but I feel, each day, that I am getting closer and closer to escaping the tunnel entirely. I have gone from nearly bedridden to being able to travel, see friends and family, and start planning on resurrecting my career. And the great thing about this recovery is that it has not been done with a bunch of drugs that just replace one set of symptoms with another; but with natural replacements, personal encouragement, and exercise. The options here provide additional hope in that if the initial therapy regiment does not achieve desired results, there are so many more to choose from. The greatest treatment I have received from Dr. Petraglia and the rest of the staff is hope—and that’s the best medicine of all.

Dr. Petraglia has been very sensitive to my individual needs. I had been on narcotic pain medications for 5 ½ years before coming here. I now use a TENS unit as primary pain management. I have become more active again and have better pain control than before. Dr. Petraglia has helped me get back to a normal active life without narcotics.

Dr. Petraglia is a great doctor. The treatment I have received has helped me walk. He is very polite and can get things done when others can’t.

I was in a lot of pain and hated life when I came to Fresno. My sister found this office for pain management and I can’t thank you enough for the help you have given me. The shots I get in my back allow me to enjoy what little life I have left. The doctor so understands of how I feel and all of my needs being in the health condition that I’m in. Thank you for making want to wake up in the morning.

I have had the injection treatment done three times. The third one helped my back a lot. Thank you

Dr. Petraglia has done three injection treatments on me over the last three months. Two of the three procedures have worked great. He doesn’t give up until he resolves your pain. He and his office staff are extra nice and always put my pain needs first. They address all my questions and take very good care of me. Dr. Petraglia lets you have a say in your pain management. He never pushes anything on you that you don’t want. He also gives you a choice of treatments. He has been a life saver for me. I was visiting the emergency room daily until I found Dr. Petraglia. I have only been to the ER twice in the last few months. Thanks Dr. P.

So far I have been very happy with the procedures the doctor has recommended and his care for my well being and pain relief. He has wanted to help in any way possible to make me feel comfortable with what he is doing and how he is doing it.

Dr. Petraglia is a wonderful physician but I believe the severe nerve damage I have is a difficult diagnosis to treat. The first nerve block I had worked for about one month. It seems that the severe nerve damage and the bulging and herniation is getting worse. I think I may need an L-scan on my left leg and hip. Dr. Petraglia is the best pain management doctor I have ever been to. He actually listens to his patients and treats accordingly.

I have been treated very well with Dr. Petraglia. The injection therapy was very good for my pain and his personal attention to my medication therapy has been great. I appreciate the fact that he listens to me on a very personal level. I would also give Bettye and the rest of the staff special thanks.

SJVIPMG is wonderful. I’ve been to several pain clinics and no one compares to them. Dr. Petraglia (being the leader) reflects on his team. He listens, finds the best treatment for you, works with you and has your best interest at heart. The injections have helped but there are also other therapies, he offers, that I can do to help my pain, such as nutrition, vitamins, and physical therapy. I know that I won’t be totally and completely fixed but I will be back to a human being once again. Thank you so much Dr. Petraglia, Bettye and staff. You are so greatly appreciated and I recommend you to anyone who needs a great doctor.

I can not say enough good things about the treatment I have received here at the SJVIPMG, from Dr. Petraglia and all of his staff as well as the specialized therapists. Since I’ve been coming here, less than 6 months, my pain in various places has decreased extremely. I have gotten a combination of medication, laser therapy, massage, and injection therapy. Dr. Petraglia is very thorough and sensitive to an individuals needs, and has helped me tremendously. His staff and co-associates are so friendly and professional as well. I can get most of my treatments right here at this office instead of being sent all over the place. I have a few friends at other pain management centers and they do not report the same quality of care at all. Dr. Petraglia doesn’t just medicate you to cover you pain and send you away. He tries a combination of very effective therapies. However, he is also knowledgeable and compassionate enough to prescribe pain medication when there is a real need and he cares about his patients being as comfortable and functional as we can be. He and his staff also take the time needed for each patient, even staying later into evening hours which I find to be an exception compared to most doctor’s offices. I am very pleased and recommend this medical group to anyone who has any form or cause of pain. You will be treated well and get real relief in a short amount of time.

I have been very impressed with Dr. Petraglia’s dedication to relieving my pain. Most doctors want to give you a band aid for an open chest wound and I have not found that to be true here. Everyone here really cares about the patients. The staff is very understanding and helpful with any problems I might have. I hope I never have to try look for another pain management doctor.
