Pain Baton Rouge

I am having a very hard time finding a pain management Doctor that accepts patients without health insurance. I've been in pain management for 7 years now, but my doctor was arrested so I need a new doctor and fast! ## Anyone know a self pay pain management doc in Louisiana?!?! Desperate ## Nobody seems to want to help on here! I was desperate as well. Dr. Defranchese in Laplace is amazing. DO NOT FAIL A DRUG PANEL! If you have too much meds in your system, he drops you! There's no second chances with him. I failed bc I did something REALLY stupid and he dropped me. I would appreciate if you found any other cash pay docs to pass the info to me as well. Good luck :) ## Why don't you go to vitals.com and go from there. You can find a PM doc in your state, possibly your city? I...

Im seeking a new pain management clinic in baton rouge that put the patient first and not afraid to prescribe meds thats needed. I have a herniated disk that causes back and leg pain 24/7. I had been receiving oxycodone 30 x 90 and oxycontin 30 x 90 until pain doc decided it was to much of a hassle to write and cut script in half. ## Hello, CJ! How are you? I am very sorry that you're in pain. However, there were new regulations put in place last year that restrict how much of any given medication can be prescribed, unless someone has a terminal condition, such as stage 4 cancer. Thus, no doctor is going to be able to just write for more, regardless of how sympathetic they may be to your condition. Everyone has been having similar problems due to this, but there is nothing your doct...

I really need to know of some docters that prescribe methadone for pain in or around the baton rouge, la area please help!!!! {edited for privacy} ## Hello, Brian! How are you? I'm sorry that you're in pain. However, there is no listing of doctors according to what they will or will not prescribe that I can refer to for you. Due to the regulations that were put in place last year, if you require such a medication on a long-term ongoing basis, you'll need to see a pain management specialist. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. However, due to its highly addictive nature, most are going to be very reluctant to prescribe Methadone. Do you currentl...

I need to find a pain med doc that prescribes meds and takes medicaid in the Lafayette, Opelousas or Baton Rouge Louisiana are....Thank you!! ## Latricia, Louisiana Medicaid won't pay for Pain Management Dr for chronic pain. You can try to find a pcp or other Medicaid Dr that will prescribe your pain meds but it will be difficult if not impossible. Others on Medicaid have to pay out of pocket every month for pain management.

This pain is going to be the death of me. I have a daughter who's 12 that is now dealing with Mommy being in Pain. Its go time! Thanks so much. ## Louisiana Medicaid will not pay for a pain management Dr. ## Try the Feldman Institute in Baton Rouge. You have to have injections and procedures as well if you want medications, but he also has his own MRI machine on the property. He's a brilliant doctor, and he accepts Medicaid and Medicare. ## Tiffanie, having Medicaid when you also have Medicare is not the same as having Medicaid only. ## I am looking for a pain management doctor who takes cash...I have been in pain 25 ...
