Allied Pain & Spin Institute

Staff and physicians are great. Dr. Vaidya is attentive, caring, and explains everything in superb detailed. Will recommend anyone with pain to get treated here. Thank you, all!

I have been a chronic pain patient for 18 years now after a 7 level fusion. It is safe for me to say, that in the course of these 18 years, I have met and remet all the pain doctors from Palo Alto to Gilroy. Dr. Petros is one of the best! He is caring, compassionate, and truly wants to help his patients manage their pain.

This office saved my life and got me off of opiates. Even while I still have neck pain.
Thank you.

Dr Petros, is my pain Dr. He treated me for a broken ankle. And now back pain. He is excellent, caring, helping, very understanding. Great, Dr Petros

Words cannot explain how incredibly grateful I am for Dr. Petros, Andrew, and Dr. Petros’ practice. They have literally changed my life and I honestly would not be where I am today if it weren’t for him and his offices. Dr. Petros is by far the best Doctor I have ever seen, both him and Andrew are leagues above the rest. I am not just writing this as a casual review. I will forever be in debt to him and his practice for the incredible difference they have made in my life. It is so hard living day after day feeling hopeless, stressed, and at your lowest because you feel like you will never receive the care, patience, dedication, compassion, and expertise from anyone in this industry. I can tell you, as someone in their mid-​thirties that has spent almost two decades trying to find just a little help, and trying to find someone that will finally listen and understand and take me seriously without writing me off because of my age, there is no better place in the Bay Area than Dr. Petros’ offices. I am forever grateful and forever indebted to him and I literally give thanks every day for what an incredible service he provides for myself and so many others in this area. THANK YOU so much Dr. Petros and everyone in your offices and I hope you all know how appreciated you are and how much of a difference you make in the lives of your patients. I hope many others take the time to visit, you will so happy you did.

There is a reason why There is a wait to see Dr. Petros!!:) He is the most exceptional doctor and delivers passionate care. Great staff! Love seeing the NP Andrew Tang– he works very close with Dr P. What I like best about Allied Pain Institute is that they offer me a comprehensive approach to my pain needs. A lot of alternatives than just surgery or pain pills. I had PrP injections — stem cell therapy and I’m 80% better. Have an apt booked for my mom’s joint paint too! Glad to know there is still great healthcare out there!

I saw Dr. James for my pain and headaches for a year now. I have to admit that I have never been treated so well as I have there. The staff are very professional and always make sure I have everything I need before I leave. Thanks again.

My husband first started seeing Dr. Petros. I at the time was still seeing my pain Dr. For severe Fms and stenosis in lower and upper vertebrae, migraines, and the list goes on… Anyway, I had a falling out with my doctor and my husband had such success with Dr Petros that I decided to see him as well!
Omg! He is wonderful! He works with my primary doctor very closely and I have not been in the pain I use to be in since I started seeing him. I had no idea that life could be so much better!
He’s sincere and honest! That’s all I can ask for. He cares!
Thank you!

Allied Pain Institute is a class act! Dr Petros is the best doctor you can find. I’ve been going to him for 2 years now and decided to write a review because the community deserves to know what a fantastic and caring doctor he is. His staff is attentive and professional. The whole team truly cares about the well being of their patients. Sometimes it’s hard to get in for an appointment because he tends to get booked fast– but ask for Nas or Selina and they can usually work something out to get you in if you are in a lot of pain.

5 stars for the Doctor and his support staff. The staff goes out of their way to make sure I was a satisfied. I can honestly say that Allied Pain is a company run by great, compassionate people that really care about their customers. The team is dedicated to patient care and are willing to adjust to a busy schedule. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Petros and his staff to my friends and family.

I would give Dr Petros 10 stars if I could! Finding a sympathetic chronic pain specialist has not been easy in Los Gatos to say the least. Dr Petros comes thru as humble, soft-​spoken, and very knowledgeable about his craft. Can’t miss integrity, which is a nice change from other providers I was referred to in the same area.
I immediately was able to trust Dr. Petros, not only does he have a tremendous reputation of being one of the best Pain Dr’s but he put me to ease as soon as he started speaking to me.
He was able to get to the heart of my long term neck pain that so many other Dr’s had missed right off the bat! That to me was extremely impressive. HE was able to design a straight forward plan to get me to feeling better in a matter of a few weeks. It’s amazing just how great I feel and how I’m no longer depressed. I’m back at my work and productive again and spend my weeknights enjoying my pilate classes again!
To me Dr. Petros has been a life saver! His staff is incredibly caring and friendly and truly go out of their way to see how I’m doing and feeling. Nas the front desk associate is one of my favorites! She always is helpful and friendly and makes sure she finds appointment times that accommodate my very complex schedule.
Do yourself a favor, if you have given up on feeling normal again– don’t give up hope!
Check out Allied Pain Institute and You’ll be thanking yourself for reading my review!;)

I have to say that I’m really disappointed with the office staff. Telling a patient in discomfort and pain, that your too busy to fax or return a ph. a Calls On status of auth/​letters is inexcusable Bad customer service.

Met Dr Petros a couple months ago after being referred by a good friend, who swore by it that this doctor is awesome and truly cares. Well, as it turns out, Dr Petros does care! In fact, for the past 5 years that I’ve been in CA, I’ve been through about 5 – 7 doctors over the same issue and every single one of them literally prescribed me ibuprofen and sent me on my way! Keep in mind, ibuprofen is only an anti-​inflammatory med that I can buy over the counter. It;s been a very frustrating and stressful process. I almost gave up on doctors all together!
Well, I’m glad I gave this doc a chance! Dr. Petros didn’t just give me ibuprofen and shrug me off while collecting a copay! He actually looked into the problem, explained to me a plan of attack for long term comfort, and prescribed me meds that actually helped for the immediate pain! Finally, a doctor who cares!
But wait, it gets better! I recently lost medical coverage and had to cancel all further treatment due to a career change. Despite the coverage loss, Dr. Petros still offered to work with me until I got coverage again, and his office has called to check on me several times since!
If you’re not seeing Dr. Petros, you’re seeing the wrong doctor!

I am so excited that I found Dr. Petros! I have had back pain for years now and after spending thousands at the hospital with out any pain relief I am happy to be pain free. His staff was amazing. I went in with not so happy of an attitude, since I couldn’t bend over without pain shooting up and down my back. The staff was so pleasant and understanding. They greeted me with a smile, offered me water and then quickly
Got me into the exam room to see the Dr. After a couple min Dr. Petros came in asked me some questions and did the exam. I felt like he was taking the time he needed to fully understand my issues and how to help me.
I had to go back for a check up and was shocked when Naz, remembered little bits of information that I told her on my first visit weeks prior. I was shocked at how good the customer service was and that someone remember tiny things I mentioned. That was a huge plus!
All in all I’m doing great, random pain here and there but that’s me just pushing myself. I recommend him to any and everyone!
PS LADIES: he’s pretty easy on the eyes :)

I have been a patient of Dr. Petros for over two years.
He is by far the most understanding doctor I have ever met. I have so much respect for him and everyone in the office. They have gone above and beyond for me, and have this way of making me feel like I am his only patient.
Dr Petros takes the time to explain in full detail, he includes your thoughts, ideas, needs, wants, and suggestions when deciding the best approach for your treatment and course of care. When I go in for an appointment I feel like I am just visiting family, always welcomed there with open arms, and compassion.
Thank you Allied family for all you do for me, you are all awesome!

Dr James Petros is a fabulous Dr. I had been his patient for a year and am very happy with him. I have had many problems that i needed his help and as he is currently working on my pains, I can feel so many improvements. His staff is a big plus for him. They are always friendly and have a very good manner. I HIGHLY recommend him.

He did not help me at all. I also found him somewhat disrespectful the last few visits. I am sure he made a lot of money with his billing. I have an attorney who says he advertises with them in a way that indicates he takes advantage of people. Since he has a fancy new office, no doubt. My attorney helped me find another doctor to put an end to the costly invasive procedures. Good riddance!

Dr. Petros & his staff are great!
He takes so much time to answer all questions, is kind, funny, sympathetic, & empathetic! He explains things very well!
This office is beautiful, modern, & clean.
So far, so good!
