Pulsed Radiofrequency Treatment (PRF) for pudendal neuralgia is a type pain relief therapy that has been shown to be effective for nerve pain, known as ‘neuralgia’. A previous blog post titled “Pulsed Radiofrequency Treatment (PRF)” describes this treatment in detail; reading that post prior to …

Patient Testimonials

*I am a physician anesthesiologist who has suffered from chronic pain for several years. I have seen many doctors who have not been able to put a complete picture together of my various pain issues. I feel so fortunate that my internist sent me to see Dr. Attaman. He is so thorough in taking a complete medical history, doing a thorough physical exam, and ordering appropriate diagnostic tests to aid him in evaluating a patient's problems. His bedside manner is excellent. He is compassionate and takes time to explain everything. He asks the patient if he/she understands. He is excellent at injections. I have gotten so much relief already. Unfortunately, many physicians today seem to have lost the art of the practice of medicine. The true meaning of the Hippocratic Oath seems to be disappearing. That is why Dr. Attaman is such a gem and a find for any patient with chronic pain issues. He is kind as well as clinically excellent. I would say he is the best physician I have ever had take care of me.*

Doctor N.B.

*I'm a physician and wanted to write a review as a patient of Dr. Attaman's this past year. I had been having lower back and sacral pain for about 10 years but due to a busy schedule had never gotten it checked out. I knew it wasn't life threatening and that I didn't need surgery. But just wanted to finally address the pain in as noninvasive means as possible. I was trained in the MD track (as opposed to Dr. Attaman's DO track) and know the limitations of training in my field. We are not taught osteopathic manipulation, and I think the DO training in the musculoskeletal system is in general, stronger. I did see an orthopedic doctor who told me I didn't need surgery, but could not offer much in the way of diagnosis or treatment. So I specifically sought out Dr. Attaman's expertise because of his DO background and further training in anesthesiology and pain management. I wanted someone who was capable of doing osteopathic manipulation, but also aware of the care needed in doing a safe manipulation. I brought my medical records and recent films, and he diagnosed and treated me the same day. I have never had an osteopathic manipulation, but about 75% of my pain was addressed with that first treatment. I like that his treatment options are varied, from physical therapy and massage, up to to injections. I was finally able to go to physical therapy because he was able to diagnose my issue. I can't promise that everyone will have the same results as I did, but I was very pleased with my overall experience with Dr. Attaman. He took the time to make an accurate diagnosis, used precautions by reviewing films, explained to me what he thought the issue was, offered effective and diverse treatment options, and was very professional. His office is very pleasant and staff are also very friendly and extremely helpful. I have since moved from Seattle but wanted to post this because my experience was so positive. Best of luck to Dr. Attaman, his staff, and all his patients.*

Doctor R.D.

*It was a Pain Management Doctor who transitioned me to the right people and for the right diagnosis ... not the Neurologist, not the Spine Rehabilitation Specialist, not my PCP. However, when I was referred to a Pain doc I assumed everyone had just given up on me and thought I should just be medicated, so I went out of my way to find one who just said no to drugs. Dr. Attaman in Seattle WA fit that bill, and regardless of where things stand with me today - I will forever be grateful to him.*

*Dr. Attaman is the first one who identified my issue and got me on track for treatment.*

*Dr Attaman was the 6th doctor that I saw, over a period of 3 years, for a chronic pain problem and the first to give me a correct dagnosis and to give me some pain relief. He takes the time to understand the problem and does not use a PA as a filter.*

R.K.

*Dr. Attaman was the best doctor I've had (and I have had a great amount) He was very attentve to my needs, and truly listened to me. He looked at different possible solutions and made me part of the decision process giving me a choice. When It was time to have a procedure done he was able to calm me down and reassure me (which is hard to do) He did what was best for me in that situation. I am very satisified with him as a doctor, and a person who is compassionate and truly cares about his patients. If there is anything else I need, or call for another doctor in his field, I will only see him.*

T.G.

Dr. Attaman is such a blessing. He takes the time to review the history of what the problem is, prior treatments, and is very thorough and precise in identifying the "pain generators". He then takes the time to map out a specific plan to help and answers all questions. He also does every procedure himself. Even if he is teaching someone else, he does the procedure himself. He is very respectful and mindful of my dignity and treats me as a partner in my healthcare and talks to me not at me. My pain has markedly improved with his help. I have referred several of my coworkers to him. His office does have a policy of not "inviting" patients back who miss an appointment without proper notification. I think this is because he is very much sought after and if you're scheduled for an appointment and don't show then you've taken up space from someone else who could use his help. However, they email and/or call to remind you of the appointment so really, be respectful and responsible and either cancel or show up. I recommend him whole-heartedly! Wonderful doctor to have on your side!

*I have suffered from chronic neck and shoulder pain for over 10 years. Tried all sort of doctors, chiropractors, acupuncture, everything you can imagine. One day, my primary care physician recommended Dr. Attaman; so, I decided to give it a shot. It has been amazing the change since I started seeing Dr. Attaman. After explaining all my symptoms, all different type of treatments and medicines I tried in the past, he suggested that could be related to a not very common condition involving nerve constriction by my muscles, he ordered several MRIs and X-rays to verify the condition. I was impressed by the level of detail he went through to make sure this was the root of my problems. I am in the middle of my treatment and so far it's been night and day. I cannot think of anybody else more qualified and knowledgeable than Dr. Attaman to treat these type of issues.*

A.G.

*He's just fantastic. Straight to the point, good bedside manner, compassionate, intelligent, explains things well and a real go-getter! I've recommended him to friends, coworkers & acquaintances dozens of times.*

*Has changed my life. I have been out of a wheelchair for 7 months and love every minute of it.*

S.H.

*I visited Dr Attaman because a friend had seen a physiatrist for similar neck/back problems. He offered a more useful diagnosis than the doctors I had previously seen for my condition (persistent migraines). And the solutions he advised, physical therapy and a nerve rhizotomy, have done far more to help my pain issues than the many drugs I've been prescribed in the past.*

*Dr. Attaman is one of the most amazing Dr's I have encountered in years. He is very attentive to my pain and was very attentive in offering solutions he thought he may be able to provide. He did not b.s. me in any manner, talk down to me and/or make me feel unwelcome into his practice. He is truly a godsend and although we have not finished treatments he has already made me feel 50% better (3/6 procedures so far). I trust him and will continue down which ever path he feels is neccessary to help me regain my life. Truly amazing man and I am very grateful to have found him.Also his office staff is one of the most amazing I have ever encountered. Smart attentive and spot on. I can not even imagine a better experience!*

*I worked many years as a Registered Nurse. I ruptured a disc, had surgery, went back to work for a year and then ruptured three more discs and have had disabling back problems including pain and spasms ever since. I saw Dr. Attaman after seeing several other doctors and being told that my options were exhausted. I went to Dr. Attaman seeking out PRP, but after an evaluation he informed me that I was a better candidate for a different procedure (one that he did not make nearly as much money for performing as it was covered by insurance and not a cash pay). I had the procedure preformed and had good results. Although I remain disabled, my quality of life has improved! As a nurse, I have had the opportunity to work with many physicians and know that physicians are just people and there are all kinds. I can truly say that I trust Dr. Attaman, I believe he can help people with chronic pain and that he is exceptional at what he does. He is respectful and caring. I would recommend him to my family members.*

*I observed Jason Attaman treat my wife over several months during 2009 for pain management after two major surgeries and was very impressed with his expertise, medical knowledge, professionalism and patient care and caring. He listens to his patients, answers questions in clear and understanding way, and provides the attention and care they need. He truly loves his patients and cares about them as individuals too. With a nurse and 3 doctors in our family, I know and understand what good doctors are and can do. In my book, Jason is clearly in a league of his own. You will be very happy to have him as your doctor, as indicated by his repeat business, referrals and patients willing to pay for his services out of their own pockets, even when they have medical coverage under their regular medical coverage plans. Simply put, Jason is the best of the best. giving his patients the care and caring they deserve, need and want.*

My wife's recovery was significantly helped by Jason's care and pain management techniques and suggestions. She was very impressed by Jason and recommends him 100% plus with absolutely no reservations to others in need. You shall benefit from his expertise, knowledge and hands-on approach. His sense of humor and people skills will inspire confidence and make you feel better mentally as well as physically.

Dr. Attaman is very kind and knowledgeable about different pain procedures - specifically of the pelvis which is my issue. I really appreciate his willingness to explain things to me, and I never feel rushed out of his office. It's very unique to find a sympathetic doctor willing to have peer-to-peer conversations with you to help you determine 1. whats wrong and 2. next steps. I also appreciate his staff who are all very friendly and helpful. They are also very sympathetic toward pain patients and have helped me many times with scheduling. Thanks to the whole clinic!

I just had a stem cell treatment done to my left knee: mostly the ACL but other parts too. Dr Attaman is absolutely confident and comfortable with all of the procedures for this work. He explained what he was going to do; listened to my input / feedback, and I felt as comfortable as I could have with him doing the stem cell procedures. I do recommend Dr Attaman for stem cell work.

Dr. Attaman is compassionate, caring, and an effective listener. As someone who has struggled with chronic pain for the past 12 years, it is critical to have a doctor that without asking provides you with multiple treatment options. I'm optimistic my pain will continue to diminish.

I took my son to see Dr Attaman as it was an urgent injury my son had from sports, the two previous Dr.s just said it was a deep bruise in his upper arm. Week later we rushed into Dr Attaman with his US machine he has he was able to see a tear in the shoulder. My son had to have surgery to have his shoulder repaired and had we not gone to see Dr. Attaman my son could of gone longer with this injury. We are so thankful.

Dr Attaman is very professional and gets right to business, I was able to schedule appointments fairly easily and he was able to come up with some alternative methods for addressing my problems. His staff was nice, and kept pretty closely to schedule, so I wasn’t waiting around long. I would recommend Dr Attaman to others especially those with chronic pain that have had issues resolving.

I'm very impressed with Dr. Attaman's ultrasound diagnostic abilities. I've been having left knee issues for about a number of years, and have had several MRI's (at other providers). The other doctors ascribed the pain to a meniscus tear and osteoarthritis. I've tried PT several times, with mixed results (knee would feel better for a while, then get reinjured).I was pleasantly surprised that Dr. Attaman found (via ultrasound) two new root causes which the other doctors had missed: hyperlaxity of my lateral patellar ligament, and enthesopathy of my MCL. The MCL diagnosis was particularly impressive, because it's on the *opposite* side of the knee from where I'm currently experiencing pain, but... it does match the location of an old knee pain I had years ago (and forgot to mention to the doctor). And it would help account for why my knee keeps getting reinjured.Fortunately both of these issues (LPFL hyperlaxity and MCL enthesopathy) are areas where PRP injections tend to have good results, so I have high hopes that the PRP injection will reduce my knee issues.

My husband is a patient of Dr. Attaman's and he has had an awesome experience so far! He is in the process of undergoing the Regenexx procedure for a torn labrum in his hip, and we were happy to find a doctor local to us who is well-versed with this procedure. We have high hopes after researching a lot about Dr. Attaman and the procedure in general (it seems to be the way that pro athletes are handling this sort of injury now, rather than surgery on the labrum.) His office has been great so far, from scheduling to assisting us with getting the correct paperwork to submit to our HRA. We feel lucky to have found this place!

PRP and Stem Cell and Regenexx About a year ago I went in for a consultation with Dr Attaman’s office. The purpose was to evaluate pain in both knees and lower back. The pain was chronic and had become worse over the years. The doctor recommended PRP injections. I did a lot of research – including evaluating a possible trip to the Colorado Regenexx clinic. In the end I decided to go with Dr Attaman. I had PRP injections in my back and in each knee about 8 months ago. I intentionally waited to write this review so I could evaluate the results.In the past 8 months I have followed the diet program in the Nutrition 2.0 book that the doctor gave me (I lost about 8% of my body weight), I have followed a supplement program heavy on fish oil and turmeric, started and followed a pretty strict work out plan, and reduced my alcohol consumption. I have seen a greater than 50% improvement in my back and both knees, and have completely stopped any pain killers such as Advil, etc. I am a very active skier and my performance level from last year to this year has improved a lot. In addition, I am now able to do workouts that I couldn’t do prior to the shots. My joints are still not 100% - but at 52 they are a lot better than they have been over the last 10 years. One knee has improved more than the other – and it is interesting to me that the better knee got the “super concentrate” PRP. At some point I may go back to Dr Attaman for further “super concentrate” PRP injections in my knees to see if I can get an additional level of improvement and performance. I want to wait a full year before I make that decision.I can’t say that the improvement in my joints is solely from the PRP injections – but the PRP injections in combination with the weight loss, alcohol reduction, supplements and exercise have worked for me. I do feel that the PRP was a key part of that improvement. Therefore, I would recommend the procedure if it is an option for your particular condition. Regarding my experience at the office staff in general and with the Dr in particular. I have been to my fair share of doctor’s and specialists over the years. Overall, I would say my experience with Dr Attaman was good. Yes, there were times when I waited a bit longer than I should, or times when it was difficult to communicate with the staff regarding questions. But frankly that happens with all medical clinics and doctors, and businesses in general. I can say that the staff and Dr Attaman were always polite, and friendly, and helpful. Therefore, I would recommend the PRP process, the clinic, and the doctor.

I brought my son in to see Dr Attaman as we were running out of options for his pudendal pain, and we are so blessed to have found Dr. Attaman. He took the time to go over so many different options and explain everything. My son has finally found some relief thanks to him. We had to travel a lil further than expected but it was well worth the extra time. His staff member Giji was so helpful with us as well and all the other staff too. Thank you

Dr. Attaman is a caring and professional doctor and his office staff is absolutely wonderful too. I flew across the country to see him as he is one of the few doctors in the country who is knowledgeable about my condition (pudendal neuralgia). No regrets at all that I did that. He was great at every step of the way, and answered all of my questions.

I am not one to write reviews unless my experience is so abysmal that the general public *really needs to know* or so great that I know it would truly help someone else.In this case I am happy to say it is the latter. Unfortunately for me 2 years ago I was hit by the proverbial bus... yep it happened. I have been fortunate enough to receive OUTSTANDING care by some amazing practitioners. After exhausting treatment from a leading spine doctor he referred me to Dr. Attaman. My first visit, after explaining the accident, he looked at me a moment, walked to my neck, said "here, here and here." His wealth of experience in treating patients with injuries such as mine was invaluable to me. It is almost impossible to prove the damage done as it isn't something most xrays etc can pick up. Yet Dr. Attaman knew and I felt relieved that I didn't have to try to prove something I could never prove.Since that first visit I have had 4 cervical blocks and just recently RF Ablation of the C3-C5 nerves. His new MA Melissa (yep I'm calling her out) has been simply... WONDERFUL! I ended up having some sort of a reaction to something, the anesthetic, the bandage, who knows... but what matters is they responded quickly and with such care. Melissa in my opinion has gone above and beyond to make sure that I receive proper, prompt and thorough care. After thanking her she replied, "I'm just doing my job." No, she was doing so much more, more than I have received from a clinic in quite some time. Also, going through all this alone, to have someone really listen and help me, was more important to me than she will ever know.Ultimately, I am grateful to all the people who have cared for me after the accident and I can say to anyone reading this review, I am being earnest and typing from the heart. If you are in pain and you want a specialist and caring staff that will listen and help, it's Dr. Attaman and his team.You may wonder why then I didn't give 5 stars. The only meh is I was not as particular fond of the billing staff. Not sure what the hiccup there was just didn't gel the same as the back office. Certainly not a deterrent and I have referred friends with chronic pain to his office. I hope they go and you should try as well if you are looking for a great Pain Specialist in our area. Oh and worth the drive from Lake Stevens!

Very knowledgeable and is using the best protocols in stem cell, PRP, Andy prolotherapy today. When I tore my triceps tendon in 2018 I went to him again. He did an excellent job and has helped me to avoid surgery. I highly recommend Dr Attaman.

Dr. Attaman did a great job not only reviewing the documents and problem with my painful hip, but then also took the time to examine both my knees and make recommendations about them. I opted for the A2M injection in my hip first, and after less than 2 weeks, the pain in BOTH hip joints is down by 90 per cent...and this is after 3 orthopedists said the only thing to do is a total hip replacement! I don't know how long I will be pain free, but it is a real blessing at this point! I thought Dr.A listened well, and came up with the best plan for my situation.

Both procedures I had (left and right knee meniscus tears) were with minimal pain and down time. From feeling unstable while simply walking to now (6 mo later) being able to jog, to say the least I AM ECSTATIC!! Thank you Dr. Attaman and team for giving me my mobility and legs back!

Dr.Attaman and his staff are profoundly helpful. Dr.Attaman is such a compassionate person, he perceIves your pain with you. He brings his full intelligence and perception, as well as an encyclopedic memory for all the details of your chart. With his heightened kinesthetic and mechanical awareness, Dr.Attaman can anticipate and solve pain problems on a level I have never met before. In the process of treating your tissue, he will bring a whole new awareness and peace to you. His procedures will help you regenerate so that you solve the pain, rather than mask the problem. I am a licenced bodyworker, and Dr.Attaman impresses me. Dr.Attaman, in his desire to walk beside and lift his patients, is light years ahead of many of his peers. He is always thinking of ways to challenge himself to improve, and there is a pathos to his being which suggests he has lived intimately with pain all his life. He expects excellence from himself. It is evident to me that Jason Attaman was born to do this work.When you are fortunate enough to have his attention, let him work. Pain treatment is an art, and is never completely perfect. Be assured he has taken the big picture into account and is strategucally fine tuning your body. I can't wait to get back in there for my next treatment. Thanks

I took my son to see dr Attaman. I was grateful he was able to get us in so quickly, and my son and I really liked and trusted him. We will refer everyone we know to dr Attaman.

We took our stepson to see Dr Attaman last March because of a sports injury and he was able to help us so much. We got in right away and didn’t have to wait. He was very knowledgeable and we are very thankful.

Look. I’ve been to approximately 50 people over the last 5 years to figure out what was going on with me...physical therapists, doctors, hospitals, chiropractors, urgent care, masseuses, acupuncturists... the list goes on. I was referred to Dr Attaman by another doctor that had (from my point of view) given up on me. I don’t know what it is about the guy but I adore him. He’s the first person to really listen to my symptoms, do an exam, tell me what he thinks is wrong with me and talk me through treatment options. I’m just beginning my treatment but I’ve been reading all the symptoms of what he thinks is wrong with me and it totally jives. I really think he’s on to something and I’m thankful I was led to him. Just wish I had seen him 5 years sooner! If you’re suffering from chronic pain, I’d recommend him.

I was very nervous about this procedure and felt very unsure of what to expect. The best part has been the interactions with Dr. Attaman and his staff who all made the process much more enjoyable.

Dr. Attaman has been an answer to prayer for my daughter. She has Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and has pain in most of her joints and suffers from headaches. Dr. Attaman has offered treatment options that are minimally invasive and extremely helpful. He cares about the entire patient and truly listens. He is kind, explains options and answers our questions. His support staff is also fantastic.

What a great experience. The entire staff is amazing. I went there with horrible shoulder pain. MRI Showed several tears. Dr. Attaman reviewed my MRI results and let me know I was a good candidate for stem cell injections. I had the injections January 30th 2018.Long story short...I was skeptical before, but I am true a believer now. Not only in him and his staff, but the wonderful stem cells my body creates! :) It's working great and therapy has been a tremendous help. I am pain free! Thank you Dr. Attaman and staff.

I started seeing Dr Attaman in 2015 after a back injury that changed how I lived my life. I had seen two other interventional pain specialist, neither who felt comfortable in treating my problem. I was referred to Dr Attaman by one of the other interventional pain specialist, he said "You need to go see Jason Attaman, he can do what many others can not." He also said that Dr Attaman "thinks outside of the box and is very skilled. " Let me tell you he was right! When my injury occurred I had a 2 year old that i could not pick up, I could no longer work at the bedside as a critical care nurse. I was in chronic pain in my lower back. I had trouble sitting, standing, and even lying in bed . The very first time I met him, he confidently told me that he could help me. I have been through a series of procedures with him since our 1st meeting. This man is a godsend, he took me from being in pain 24/7 and needing take oral pain medications to function to being able to return to my life with a manageable pain level. My back problems are complex, they will always be there, but now they no longer dictate my life! As a registered nurse that has worked in critical care, emergency medicine, surgical revovery, and well you name it, I have done it. I have worked with many great providers and then just average. I am one who calls it as I see it, I don't beat around the bush. I typically hand pick my own providers based upon my observations. I am reserved to go to a provider that i have not had experience with. Although I was leary about going to see someone that I did not know before hand, I am so glad that I did! Dr Attaman is one of the great! I have referred several colleagues and family members to him. Thank you so very much Dr Attaman for all that you have done to help me live my life again as I want to! You are truly gifted and skilled at your trade!

I have been seeing Dr. Attaman since 2011and he has rebuilt the upper half of my body . I was a cement mason for 30 years, my back and shoulders were worn out and I was contently in pain .He has rebuilt my shoulders with stem cell and when I first started seeing him he would burn the nerves in my back , now he is doing a new procedure called regenetics and is able to use your own white platelets or stem cell on your back . I was sure that I was going to have to have surgery on my back but he injected my own white platelets in me and I feel great . There isn't a day that goes by that I don't thank god for meeting Dr. Ataman , he has totally changed my life .

I have seen Dr. Attaman now for 2 1/2 almost 3 years now. I have been blessed to have him in my life. I have many health issues that have been addressed and repaired by him rather then surgery.... in the past I had 3 back surgery’s , two neck and they wanted a 3rd one, I have ankylosing spondylitis, Degenerative disc disease, and all the goodies we get as we age. He has helped restore my life to a healthy balance. I have tried 1. prp2.nerve blocks3.regenex stem cell and all have successfully worked.... there’s a lot more but I’m not a doc....The bottom line if you had a choice between surgery and his his office , I’d chose him again. I don’t like being layed up on drugs, nor cut opened ! This is tops a few days slow down but never down an out. Surgery or Attaman? Attaman always! Great person who really cares..😉

I am a 36 year old who was suffering with chronic-disabiling pain in my knee, I found Dr.Attaman after hearing about a procedure called "coollief" that is a nerve ligation-obliteration procedure, Dr.Attaman was one of the only Dr. in the Pacific Northwest who preforms the procedure on the knee. After diagnosing that the procedure would work I had it done and I say to everyone I talk to that this procedure " is the best thing I ever did", I can live my life without the chronic pain- it's been almost 2 years since I had it done!Dr.Attaman is a Kind man and a Great Doctor, I recommend him to everyone I meet that suffers from joint pain, when I have to have the other knee done I only hope Dr.Attaman is still around.

As a physician who uses ultrasound himself, I was especially impressed by Dr. Attaman's ability to locate and successfully ablate two VERY small nerves in my foot, thereby helping provide relief of foot pain which had troubled me for more than 5 years.And on another front, he also suggested an alternative cause to chronic back pain that I've had for more than 25 years--instead of focusing on my spine as three other physiatrists had done, he almost immediately asked me if anyone had considered my shoulder. No one had. It now looks like this approach may pan out....much appreciated and good lord, well done.

Jason, is the most caring & smartest doctor I have ever come across, and after over 40 surgeries ( done by other doctors ) Dr Attaman, is the one doctor that has helped me get & stay out of pain by his own work or knowledge of which doctors could help ! . Thank you, Dr Attaman

Dr. Sultana and Dr. Attaman are wonderful doctors. They are both attentive to their patients. Even though I had a full thickness torn shoulder they were able to give me a shot and reduce my pain down to 0 from an 11! I was even able to sleep on that shoulder until I started physical therapy. I highly recommend these doctors to anyone in the area.

My story is too lengthy to share here. I am so grateful that I found Dr. Attaman; he has changed my life. For 15 years I had almost daily headaches that usually turned in to migraines and saw more Dr.s than I care to mention, both traditional and alternative. I took every med on the planet, tried weekly acupuncture and herbs, chiropractic, dietary changes, all failed. For the past 12 years I have not been able to lay on my right side without triggering a headache. When I mentioned this to other physicians, there usually wasn't a response, so I often gave up, thinking I had to live with my condition. Dr. Attaman diagnosed my problem quickly and was confident that he could help restore my quality of life. We tried a several conservative treatments and I felt in control of my care throughout the entire process. Dr. Attaman is the only one that I was confident enough in to do a Nerve Ablation on my neck. It has been nine weeks since my procedure and I am happy to say, I have only had two headaches that were easy to get on top of instead of taking days to resolve or a trip to the ER. The past three weeks, I have been headache free. If you have lost hope, please try once more. You will not find a more proficient, educated, caring or dedicated physician. Thank you for putting the smile back on my face Dr. Attaman.

Dr. Attaman cares a lot about his patients and has gone above and beyond to help me. He is very calm and down to earth, making it easier on patients who need to undergo uncomfortable procedures with him. He gets to the point in our appointments without wasting time, but also takes the time to listen to you and anything you are wanting to discuss with him. I feel like we've developed a genuine relationship because of these things. Thank you Dr. Attaman. 😊💙

My husband has been a patient of Dr. Attaman for a couple of years. Dr. Attaman has been the only doctor who has been able to minimize his pain from headaches, knee pain and most recently problems with his lower back to the point where he could not walk. Dr. Attaman's compassion and caring of my husband's condition is amazing. I would highly recommend seeing Dr. Attaman.

Dr. Attaman has helped me find a treatment program to enable my bi-lateral arthritic knees to support my active lifestyle pretty much pain free. He is well adept at alternative procedures such as stem cell injection and Prolo therapy which is important to me. Courteous and attentive staff as well. Great Dr.!

I suffered from constant back pain for over 25 years. I saw many doctors over that period and was constantly told there was nothing that could be done for it. I tried many different therapies with no success. When I was finally referred to Dr. Attaman I was finally hopeful that there might be some relief. He did radio frequency ablation on my back and for the first time in 25 years, I have had relief from the pain. Dr. Attaman has literally given me a whole new lease on life. I am no longer depressed and exhausted from the pain and can do things I haven't been able to do in years. I can't say enough about what Dr. Attaman has done for me. I feel alive again! Thank you Dr. Attaman.

Began my treatment with Jason Attaman yesterday. Was a little skeptical initially but the first experience has been positive. He clearly has expertise, and interacts in a safe and comforting manner. Towards the end, largely because of my own diffidence, I couldn't get all the diagnostic information I would have liked but I hope to, next time. On his part, he was as thorough as he could be, given the circumstance. And for each of the concerns that I did discuss with him, he has laid out a roadmap fairly systematically and I am looking forward to leading a life with less pain.

I have been seeing Dr Attaman for 3 years now, since moving from the DFW metroplex in Texas. I quickly found that the way traditional pain meds are viewed by physicians in the state of WA is *much* different than TX. I have suffered from chronic/severe neuropathic pain in my low back & neck for 20+ years and have tried EVERY treatment modality available to me... surgery, PT, acupuncture, chiropractic, numerous injections, cranial sacral therapy, voodoo (ok not really! but some of it felt that way), implanted spinal cord stim, biofeedback, hypnosis, and the list goes on. My point is simply this... many of these would offer some short term relief but unfortunately the only thing I have found that truly manages my pain so I can work and generally function somewhat normally are opioids. I understand all of the concerns about long term opioid use... but I have tried all types of treatments and all types of meds and nothing has worked. But many many physicians in WA state don't seem to care about that... they simply won't prescribe them. (I actually had one family practice doc tell me I was destined to end up like Gene Hackman in the French Connection 2!! )Dr Attaman has been open to all options for pain management. Prescribing opioids is certainly not his preference and he is extremely cautious about insuring prescriptions are not misused (through theft &/or forgery) and carefully monitors patient use through urine screening. While sometimes a hassle, I appreciate the fact Dr Attaman is so diligent in mitigating the misuse of these drugs. Dr Attaman clearly studies advances and new treatment options for pain management - and is fundamentally committed to insuring his patients can live day to day with the minimal amount of pain as possible. He is seldom ever rushed and is truly interested in his patients - even after seeing them every month for 3 years! I highly recommend Dr Attaman to anyone who is interested in finding a caring, compassionate, respectful physician who stays current with advances in his field and who's chief concern is first and foremost eliminating (or at least substantially reducing) the pain his patients have to deal with day to day. He has done it for me, and I am quite certain he can do it for you as well.

I am lucky my wife found Dr. Attaman. I had seen so many different specialists and doctors in the past 6 months and all without any relief. I even went to Mayo Clinic which is an 8hr drive from where I live and they sent me home without help. I have suffered with pudendal neuralgia and it is a nightmare. Most of the doctors I have been to did not even know what pudendal neuralgia was. Finally after 8 months of suffering and countless doctors later my wife found Dr. Attaman's website. My wife made a phone call to their office and made an appointment. We had all our records sent to his office and flew from central Illinois to Washington. Dr. Attaman knew exactly what was wrong with me within 15minutes of meeting him. He gave me 2 rounds of injections and I feel like a new man. Before seeing Dr. Attaman I felt hopeless. I am a farmer, pilot, and father of 2 small children and was unable to work due to my pain. Dr. Attaman is one of a kind and I would highly recommend him and his assistant Ilda to anyone who thinks they may have pudendal neuralgia.

I'm not Lisa but I am her mother and not too computer savvy so I didn't know how to change the post. My name is Kathy Waltho and my wonderful daughter Lisa who lives in Nine Mile falls check out Dr. Attaman web site. She called his office on Monday and I had an appointment for me the next day in his Auburn office. My daughter drove 2 1/2 hrs and picked me up. I live in Ephratra which is central WA so that means I need to be in the car 6hrs. I have been sick to two years and chronic pain the past year. I have been unable to work since February and for the most part so disabled from the pain my quality of life has been extremely low and no hope. I had lost 25 lbs and was taking narcotics and totally wasting away. I was working with a whole team of doctors and specialist where some progress was made but I had to wait days, weeks and months for appointments. I was also referred several places three hours drive over the pass where I was told they couldn't help me. That is a long drive for someone in chronic pain and my pain was off the charts. I got right in to see Dr. and had a procedure setup before the weekend. My diagnosis is Purdendal Neuralgia my pain level is way down and I have had days with no pain. My hope is back and I know that Dr. Attaman won't make me wait to get in if I need to. Today is day five with 100% pain relief and no narcotic drugs. Dr. Attaman really is an expert and I highly recommended him. Kathy Waltho

When I started seeing Dr. Attaman I didn't think I would be able to "get rid" of my pain. However, I am now almost pain free! He's quick and efficient at what he does. The staff is great and easy to work with. At my first follow up I was still having quite a bit of pain and Dr. Attaman was able to fit me in that afternoon in order to get me some releif. I can't say enough about the quality of life that he has been able to bring back to me! Thanks Dr. Attaman!

I truly appreciate everything that Dr. Attaman has done for me. I finally am able to do things I've wanted to do without pain. It is so great to be out of pain and I know if the pain returns, I can go to Dr. Attaman for help. It is obvious that he truly cares about his patients, and I appreciate the care he has given me.

If you are suffering from pain I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Attaman. He is an extremely knowledgeable pain specialist and he can solve problems that most people cannot. I was suffering from neck and shoulder pain that could not be solved by physical therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic or massage. I was almost at wits end when I found Dr. Attaman. I underwent an RFA procedure with him that completely resolved my pain and I am so very thankful for it. Too many "pain specialists" prescribe pain medication and do not treat the underlying issue. Dr. Attaman is different and I recommend him to everyone I know.

Jana Robertson

I have a relatively unknown pain condition called Acute Cutaneous Nerve Entrapment Syndrome...the nerves in my abdominal muscles inflame causing the muscles to contract and not release. Several doctors told me that there was nothing They could do for me except manage my pain thru pain medication...and then I got referred to dr Attaman and my life has been forever changed. From the first visit I knew that he cared about me as a person and wanted to help me get well. We created a plan and adjusted it as needed. I'm happy to say that with the treatments I have had I am now off all medication and can live my life again! Thank you Dr Attaman for being a doctor that thinks outside the box and that I can trust to know the right path for my health.

Outstanding care and service from Dr A and his amazing staff! We traveled all the way from Utah in hopes Dr A could help me. He performed a specific based exam to determine if I had PN or not. After reviewing my symptoms he was able to diagnose me with PN. Then he prepped me for the nerve block and the next 24 hours the pain was completely gone. Feeling hopeful! I would highly recommend him! World renown doctor!

Ladies and Gentlemen,Dr. Jason Attaman is peerless. He's extraordinarily sensitive, bright andcurious. These skill sets are required for a physician practicing medicine in the 21st century. I was referred to Dr. Attaman by my personal physician. Following 7 spine surgeries; cervical and lumbar open diseconomies, I continued to experience 6-7/10 post surgical pain.He recommended cervical RFA and following this procedure, II've had a 75% reduction in discomfort in my arm. Now, he's working on the rest of my spine. This is a physician with a sterling education and experience to match. His 'bedside manner' is beyond reproach. He has the most stellar staff (Andrea, Gina and Lolo) working with him. They've treated me like family and isn't that really what we need when we're sick?Sincerely,Commander Mary Beth Condon, USN
