Saal Joel S MD

I suffered for years with leg, neck and back pain. After seeking help from Ortho, Chiropractic, Neurological, and GPs and being mis-​diagnosed, I was referred to Dr. Joel Saal. Dr. Saal correctly diagnosed my problem and used non-​surgical methods to solve the problem! He has been using acupuncture for over 20 years and this approach worked on my neck. A couple of precisely placed injections solved my back and leg problems. I went from not being able to comfortably walk across the street or sit for more than 10 minutes, to walking 3 – 4 miles a day and spinning 3 days a week. After 6 years of relief I had a accident that herniated 2 disks. I didn’t hesitate to go back to Dr. Saal and true to form, he pinpointed the problem and has gotten be back to my workouts. Trust hm to figure out what is going on. Believe me he knows what he is doing.

Doctor Saal is hands down the worst doctor that I have ever been too. He and his whole office staff are insanely rude and mean. They will have no problem hanging the phone up on you if they feel inclined. The offices are disgustingly dirty, cold and uncomfortable. Dr Saal will treat you like meat and prescribe any manner of insane drugs regardless of the side effects and warnings. He is a cold, cold man and treats everyone like they are idiots including his staff. He is dismissive and will not give answers to direct questions. During injections and procedures he will to nothing to calm your fears or ease you concerns. This man should have his license removed he is a stain to the hippocratic oath he can and will harm you and not care one bit.
There should be a negative 5 option…

Dr. Joel Saal was the first specialist in 3 yrs of agonizing pain to accurately diagnose my injury. I have received treatment from him for 2 months now, and have been very impressed with his expertise. He did not, however, recieve 5 stars from me because it has been impossible to get him to answer all my questions. For example, I am on my own in terms of experimenting with pain management. If you want a doc who will zero in on your problem and treat it with the best available options, hes your man. If you want to understand whats happening to you and what decisions are best for you to make, dont count on it.
