Dr. Nagaraj S Kikkeri, MD

I'm an older patient with several health issues. I've been a patient of Dr. Kikkeri for 8 YEARS, driving 1 hr 15 mins one way EVERY month, never missing a single appt. I had no issues with Dr. Kikkeri but rather the staff responsible for getting my prescriptions to the pharmacy. Without fail, for most of the ENTIRE 8 YEARS, and even being on the EXACT same meds for years, I would ALWAYS have to call the office at least once to get my prescriptions sent in. My last visit on Sept 2023, one of my RX was called in a whole week AFTER the others, throwing it off the schedule of the other 3 RX. This meant two different trips into town, a long way for me, from that point forward because pharmacies won't fill RX early. They really didn't seem to care about the hardships this causes patients who are already feeling like crap. This persisted for 8 YEARS before I finally decided that the stress and wear & tear on my body & vehicle was no longer worth it. I came home, trashed EVERY RX I had, including from my cardiologist, and said to hell with it all. Staff can make or break a doctor. And the ineptitude of his staff will cause him to lose more patients.

Dr. K and his staff are amazing. The front staff, including Karen and Pat, and the Dr.’s assistants, including Jenny, are all like family. I also can’t say enough nice things about Dr. Phillips, and Dr. Paul and Annabelle in physical therapy. I’m sorry I can’t list everyone, but they all go above and beyond to make sure that the patient is taken care of and all of their needs are met. They have helped me and my husband manage our neck and back pain, and I highly recommend this practice.

I am extremely happy with my experience - to live pain free is a joy! Thank you!

Excellent pain management doctor and staff. Extremely grateful for their quality of care and treatment. Personable, kind and fun. The friendly atmosphere makes a world of difference, thanks to all.

Excellent Doctor, have been a loyal patient for years to Dr. Kikkeri. His care changed my life , I know can enjoy life without pain.

As a construction worker I suffer from a lot of pain. With his help, Dr. Kikkeri keeps me working so I can still live the life I want. The injections I receive every few months help me the most. The whole staff is caring and attentive and always give 100%.

Dr. K has portrayed immense compassion for his patients like something I have never seen. He truly cares about the health of his patients and finding relief.

I found this doctor to be arrogant and uncaring. I will NOT be returning to him.

I have been a patient of Dr. Kikkeri since 2009 and have never had a doctor I trusted more. I feel that he cares for me as if I were a member of his family, and I believe he treats all of his patients the same. He always has a way to relieve most of my pain, but he is realistic and lets me know that with my back condition, the most we can do is manage my pain, and that he does. His entire staff is polite, friendly and caring. I have absolute confidence that I will always be seen in a timely manner.

I have never been treated by a doctor that is as compassionate as Dr. Kikkeri. His explanation as to what he is doing is in plain, understandable language (I don't feel like he is talking down to me). AND he has a great sense of humor!!

I was a patient here for several years and the doctor always seemed to care. But then I was convinced to have 2 spinal implants that helped somewhat but over time things changed. I was then told that because of complications I needed to come off of my very effective pain medication and get a very complex surgery that seemed excessive. When I opted not to have another procedure, I was told I couldn't stay on my normal prescription medication. I sought a second opinion and I was convinced that I didn't need this third procedure. I changed doctors because it seemed like unless you opted for numerous complex procedures you were looked down on and the appointments with Dr. Kikkeri were stopped and you had to meet with his physicians assistant.

I have a rare medical condition that causes severe pain. Dr. K is the best pain management doctor I've ever met. Doesn't over medicate. Really focuses on getting pain in control and quality of life. Walks me through every procedures and explains how and why he is approaching the treatment my condition with a goal of helping me gain functioning. I wouldn't see anyone else.

I love dr kikkeri and his staff he makes sure with multiple test what is.causing the pain and helps you manage your pain

I love Dr. Kikkeri, I am 16 years old and I came to him starting when I was 14 and hurt myself. He is always been there and he never lets me down and he makes sure I am always taken care of and makes sure im never in pain!

Love love love this doctor.

acted like I was a drug addict looking for drugs. Missed a appointment for back injections because we didn't have the $500.00 (co-pay) and wasn't told we needed it until day of appt. Dr. Kikkeri didn't care that it was a hardship to us and said if we could afford what was left after insurance that we needed to go to Parkland clinic in Dallas (60 miles one way) for treatment. they treat patients like us. Never been talked down to so bad in my whole like. Never will go back.

Dr Kikkeri and his staff are all polite caring and efficient. The entire experience from beginning to end was as good as anyone could hope for.

Dr Kikkeri helped me when no one else could...he is the best doctor ever...and I have a lot of them...I love him, I love his staff...they have been nothing but kind to me...

Dr. Kikkeri is the best, he is sincere in taking care of you. I have multiple experiences with him from his Pain Management Clinic to the hospital with my husband and he is a 5 star Doctor.
