Patient Reviews

The following are reviews from patients of Dr. Chipman.

“My visit with Dr. Chipman was pretty perfect.”

Patient rating: 5 stars
“Dr. Chipman is kind, compassionate, and knowledgeable. I have osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. I like that he was willing to formulate a topical cream to be compounded for me to use when isolated parts of my body are in pain so I don’t have to take a pill if only my hands or knees hurt severely. I’ve had multiple surgeries and have systemic pain during flare-ups. Dr. Chipman is very empathetic with the ebbs and flows of RA. I appreciate his kindness and willingness to find new ways to manage my pain. I highly recommend Dr. Chipman as a pain management expert/doctor.”

“I know I am a difficult patient to treat, because of my degenerate disks in my back and neck. I also have fibrositis and arthritis in most of my joints. My favorite doctor was Dr. Marshall who I started seeing 30 years ago when I moved here from California. I have seen several other doctors there. I also had several treatments by the physical therapists and found them all to be very helpful. Dr. Chipman is currently treating me for the pain in my neck and shoulders. I have had several surgeries, with most of my neck and back fused. Dr. Chipman is trying very hard to ease my pain without more surgery. All the doctors and staff working there have been great in the 30 years I have been treated there.”
