Hemlock Pain Center: Stephen Tafor, MD

May 2026

All of my visits to the ambsurg or clinic have been pleasant. The nurses, NP, and doctors are professional and competent. I am grateful for the services they provide.

I have had several procedures here, all were successful and handled with professional care. Dr. Data is awesome and very knowledgeable. I Highly recommend if you have back or spine issues!

I DO NOT recommend Hemlock Pain Center (I clicked "Do not recommend but it placed my comments in the "Recommend" category). What a terrible decision to have ever decided in May of this year - 2024 - to allow Dr. (make a guess) to perform a PNS trial procedure on my lower back. Even with step by step guidance from the Curonix representative who was present while I had this done, I only experienced some relief on days 1 & 2 of the 7-day trial. When the electrodes were removed, there was excessive bleeding, swelling, and bruising. Therefore, I decided I would NOT have the permanent PNS done. Another pain clinic requested my medical records 4 times over the past 6 weeks but, as of today, those records still have not been sent. Surely the "professional" medical staff is not vindictive and resistant, right?
