I was hesitant to go to pain management even though I should’ve done this two years ago. I survived a gunshot to the head and I have nerve damage so I have extreme pain almost all the time my provider.Lesley Is incredible. She is so empathetic and understanding we haven’t found the right one just yet but I think we’re pretty close. She never judges. She is never insinuated that I’m a drug seeker or anything like that.
