Kara, DNP,CNS was an excellent provider. Her attention to getting the whole picture and her interest in how she could help me with my pain issues was remarkable. She explained everything to me and my husband in great details and helped me explore other options. She also made recommendations to help me manage my pain. I was very pleased with my first visit with her and am confident that I am in the right place. Thank you

Dr Liechty is awesome. She is part of the pain clinic which in itself brings people already frustrated, depressed, or exhausted from chronic pain. She listens thoroughly and is also open if I have questions about medicines or treatments we haven't addressed before. She has really helped me immensely and as someone with chronic pain who happens to be a woman is it rare to find someone who doesn't dismiss or gaslight my health issues.

I would only request that Dr Lechty not be quite so scientific. I know alot about my issues, but don't need to know all the nerve groups etc. It was interesting but not needed or wanted. I wasn't sure how to say it to her. I love her otherwise. Final, overall visit was productive and ended well.

I loved how they both asked first thing what I was expecting or wanted from this visit. They were both very pleasant and hopeful for my condition and I was very pleased that they seem to understand and consider the whole body
