Patient Reviews

America has been exceptional on all care she has provided me. She listens to my concerns, answers my questions, and gives me advice in a friendly, professional way. I trust her to get me the best at all times.

It is my privilege to provide this testimony and review for Dr. Eric Cornidez. I have been a patient of Dr. Cornidez for several years — a fact that in and of itself speaks to both this physician’s genuine passion-for-and-dedication-to the highly specialized field of paint intervention.

As others who live with high-level pain on a constant, daily basis, I have learned that all anesthesiologists are most certainly NOT the same. What keeps me going back to the Pain Institute of Southern Arizona in general, and Dr. Cornidez in particular, is the fact that his extensive experience and knowledge associated with this often abstract, elusive, and potentially very debilitating condition is joined with an adroit and uncommon talent for searching out and targeting a patient’s source, or, as in my case, sources, of often incapacitating discomfort. Moreover, what in my experience makes Dr. Cornidez extraordinary is his seemingly infinite positivity. In all these years, there has never been even a single instance when he did not make me feel welcome, just like an old friend whom I hadn’t seen in many years, and outwardly and clearly show me that he sincerely and truly cared about how I was feeling. He also always reassured me that he was (and is!) 100% committed to doing what is necessary to help improve my quality of life.

I could go on and on about this simply superb doctor and practitioner. I have had dozens and dozens of injections over these past many years. When and if it comes to this particular sort of intervention, there is no physician I have known that compares to this gentleman’s uncanny ability and expertise. I would fly across the country to be under the care of Eric Cornidez.

Kristen is always very friendly, and very professional too. She has made my appointments a pleasant experience. When you have such a nice experience, it makes it easier to go back for sure! Love the early appointment slots also! THANK YOU for helping me!

All good

Dr. Martin was friendly, discussed my back issues, and wanted to make sure I understood a procedure. He kindly used terms that I understood. Overall, I would recommend him and look forward to my next appointment.

She’s very thorough & attentive to my pharmaceutical needs in order to manage my ongoing pain. She’s very professional & caring through & through! [Sylvia Valenzuela, FNP-C]

I’ve only seen Dr. Yelavarthi once but I have to say after about two minutes I felt as though he had been my Dr. for years. I was so comfortable with him and he put me at ease immediately. I explained my pain issue and he pulled up a previous CT scan that I had and I was amazed as he showed me what my problem was. So kind and knowledgeable. I was so pleased with my visit.

America is the sweetest thing on earth. She is a small powerhouse. She is super knowledgeable, if she doesn’t know she will find out who does, she is super professional, but at same time compassionate, understanding, and has great empathy and intuition. She impressed me and I totally love her. I am a retired professional from the medical field with over 50yrs of experience. I know system from both sides and I look at it more critically than a lay person. I think this is best pain clinic I have ever been to and I have only had problems with one provider who wasn’t mine so I think that is amazing. But America is wonderful and anyone who sees her is dealing with a to notch professional.

Nicole was wonderful to see me on short notice to get my medication that had lapsed. This morning I was able to get moving again after two days without. Amazing how quickly the pain has been resolved in my back so I can function better. The PISA team is the BEST at what they do and I love 💕 their team work. They always make sure that their customers are happy. Thank goodness 😅 we have them. Five STARS
