I saw Dr. Morgan today for my first visit. I had read many reviews, which were not favorable, so I was concerned about what I was walking into. I was pleasantly surprised. I found his staff to be very pleasant and he was as well.

He listened and is now requesting an MRI to find the root cause of my pain. He added additional medication and will make diagnosis upon next visit.

I only gave 3 stars since this is my first visit but hope to raise that once the MRI is back and see what happens. I have seen many doctors regarding my pain for over 10 years. He is the first one to recommend an MRI. I am really hoping Dr. Morgan is able to help me.

Mr John Quack Morgan for epidermals for steroids injections. have done this in 3 different offices. I never got relief after 4 or 5 treatments i asked my insurance company for a new pain clinic. He never gave me local anesthesia before any of my treatments , which means whatever he injected me with was not the steroid in my records. I have been injected with several locals including lidocain and remember the burning feeling. When i first went his hawthrone office maybe 20 plus people waiting in the waiting room, most the problem was everyone had heavy odor or marijuana on them. Some were elderly other young and some brought their family members with them. The conversation around the room mostly was of what medications everyone was prescribed or were waiting to see the Quack Morgan for. Next they spoke of possible trades and exchanges after filling their prescriptions. I informed Carefirst of the problem, and still took them 1 year to find me a new pain clinic

HORRIBLE!!! COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL AND UNKNOWLEDGEABZLE. They rarely answer the telephone, although during business hours. Have left over six (6) telephone messages over a two (2) week period. Not once have they returned call. When I did get a voice on the phone, she informs me they "are swamped". Dr. Morgan is arrogant, and while he did help with a herniated disc, my experience with him and his "office" this time around has been horriffic. It appears he has difficulty keeping staff members. This is the 2nd set of office staff I have experienced since May, 2011. They never take that extra step to make me feel my treatment is a priority. They never made any effort to follow up with me after my visit although say they will. Scheduling treatment takes at LEAST a month. I waited over 6 weeks to get an authorization on a medication because his office did not submit the proper paperwork. I have been denied treatment because of the paperwork submitted to my insurance company. It is my experience he and his staff are less than knowledgeable about insurance companies policies regarding treamtent and prescriptions.. I know they see a lot of patients, but when you say you're going to follow up, you should. If they have too many clients, perhaps they should stop taking clients and handle the ones they have with a professional manner. Despite my reluctance to return to Dr. Morgan's office for a 2nd herniated disc, I felt because of the success with the first herniated disc experienced with Dr. Morgan, I returned. I will be obtaining medical services elsewhere.
CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED. YOU DO NOT WANT TO SEE THIS "DOCTOR" FOR ANYTHING!

The parking situation at their office was ridiculous. I ended up having to pay for parking because there were no spots available near the office. I was glad that they were located in a safe neighborhood. I've been to some other places where I was scared to get out of my car but not here. Their office was one of the quietest, most peaceful places I've ever visited. I was able to relax very easily. The one thing that I really enjoy about this place is their high level of customer service. Their full attention is always on me and they never take personal calls during my appointment. I've been to other places that answer their phone and it just drives me crazy.
