Dr. Karimian does not make money writing prescriptions for affordable pain management medications. Instead she pushes hard to sell you on ever increasingly expensive and dubious injections. She tried to push so many different types of injections on me from PRP, to dangerous steroid epidurals to amniotic fluid injections for $3,500 each x2 knowing I have no health insurance. After a spinal MRI she sent me for she declared I needed steroid epidurals from the base of my spine to my neck for $1,500 each injection that requires a... read more
After telling me her decision to treat me was based on.imaging requisitions, the imagining she ordered was TOTALLY UNRELATED to the pain matter I came to her for, & made her decision. I warned her not to charge me for a telehealth visit unless she could refer me somewhere else, but she called just to recuse herself & billed Medicare for it. I also confronted her for letting her assistant barged in the room while I was undeessed, & she dismissed my complaint as irrelevant.
Dr. K received a referral from my doctor in January 2021. I got my first appointment with her in March 2021.

I'm a 66 year old woman who has suffered with chronic pain for 23 years. I had to go to Dr. K for pain meds after my p.c. dr, could no longer write them. She decided I had to have a urine test before She would write a new script. I called her office for 2 weeks to get results and was finally told by her asst. that I was dismissed as a patient and would get no more scripts from them. Dr. K wouldn't even discuss it with me!! I Have been in torture for 2 months and may miss my son's wedding.
Two visits for my wife that experiences 24/7 pain from a stroke. Found an almost total lack of communication on her part.
