"I never saw the doctor until I went into the room where the procedure would be done. He might’ve said two words to me, I really don’t remember. The procedure did nothing for me. It was so strange to not meet a doctor before the procedure and he looked nothing like his pictures that are online. It was a very unusual experience and definitely not a good one. "

"The entire staff is very helpful, kind, and extremely efficient. If it wasn't for Dr. Puppala I strongly feel the bursitis in my shoulder would still be in major pain. If you have shoulder pain, rotator cuff issues, or bursitis don't hesitate, RUN to see this man! I came to Comprehensive spine and pain because I had already visited two other physical therapist who were not getting me better. I had pain for 9 months until visiting this practice. Dr P was patient with my healing process and was always transparent when telling me what stages I was in my recovery. Now I am fully recovered back to pumping iron and putting on a backpack without pain. Thank you to everyone in that office for making my experience great from start to finish. "

"Dr. Puppala is in my opinion, hands down, the best spine surgeon. His expertise, thoroughness, patience and his willingness to go the extra mile for his patients, brings me to this conclusion. His "bed side manner," is impeccable, his end time goal is to make sure you feel your best. Dr. Puppala looks for every solution to ease your pain. He has an amazing ability to make you smile even though you come to his office visit, suffering with back issues. I have recommended Dr. Puppala to anyone who tells me they have back pains. He is just that good. "

"I reached out to Dr. Puppala after suffering from a stiff back along with weak legs. I had problems walking more than 150 feet without having to sit to relax. Walking up stairs was impossible without having to pull myself up by the handrails. My back would stiffen when standing too long, climbing stairs or walking distances. The staff was very pleasant and patient and Dr Puppala was very attentive to my explanation of symptoms. They spoke with great confidence and had given me extreme confidence in their abilities. I followed all directions given to me and had surgery on my L5 S1 area. I wasn't nervous going into surgery as the facility is very welcoming and the staff very professional. I'm very happy with the results and after 2 weeks of having the surgery my legs are regaining strength and I'm able to walk longer distances with confidence. My back is still in the healing process but it's not as stiff as it was before surgery. I believe everything went perfectly as planned."

"I have been a long time patient with Doctor Puppala. They have always given me excellent service. If you have pain, you need to see Doctor Puppala. He has certainly improved my quality of life, and I can't imagine how I would be without him. My highest recommendation to him and his staff. They are always friendly, informative, and have things together. "

"I have been dealing with numerous doctors and medical offices for years and I am unbelievably impressed with Dr. Puppala and his team. He is so thorough and remembers my medical history, making adjustments to treatments that may otherwise affect my other ailments. His office is responsive and follows up after each appointment to ensure I am doing alright. They even dealt with my insurance company who initially denied my treatment and got it approved within a day. I cannot give enough praise about him. Thank you so so much for being such a pleasure to work with <3"

"I can't recommend these guys enough. From check in through procedure, everyone is incredibly nice and professional. Wait times are very minimal. They do a great job of listening and explaining. Dr Puppala Pleasant may be the nicest doc I've ever visited. He is very down to earth and seems to really care about the patient. 5 stars all the way. "

"It was a godsend to find a place and people who took the time to listen, evaluate my situation and work to find a solution for my pain. They were able to find me a medication that eases my pain enough for me to live a full life. I work and play hard and enjoy my family and some great outdoor adventures. Besides wanting to be comfortable enough to live my life, I wanted as few side effects as possible. They found the perfect one for me. No nausea, tiredness or foggy brain. I recommend Comprehensive Spine and Pain to anyone wanting to stop hurting and to start living. "
