I recently had a hip steroid injection performed by Dr. Buzanowska, and I could not be more pleased with my experience. Because I was experiencing significant pain, Dr. Buzanowska and her team were kind enough to accommodate me with a much earlier appointment, which I greatly appreciated. From beginning to end, the entire team was extremely professional and caring. The procedure was clearly explained beforehand, and I experienced very little discomfort during the injection. Most importantly, I walked out feeling like a new person—the improvement in my pain was remarkable. I am extremely grateful to Dr. Buzanowska and her team for their professionalism, compassion, and excellent care. I would highly recommend Dr. Buzanowska to anyone suffering from severe hip arthritis who is seeking pain relief.

It would be five stars if it weren’t for the 50 min I spent on hold with reception desk or appointment line. No reason I should have been on hold that long

✨Review for Dr. Leong at River city sports & Spine Specialists✨ After my car accident, I found myself navigating chronic pain, testing, specialists, fear, frustration, and honestly… a lot of moments where I felt unheard. Through all of it, Dr. Casey Leong has been an incredible physician and an even better human being. What sets Dr. Leong apart is that he doesn’t just treat injuries or scan results, he treats the whole person sitting in front of him. While helping manage my post-accident pain and advocating for my concerns, he also checked in on me as a person. He followed up asking whether the depression medication my PCP prescribed seemed to be helping, and when scans from another physician revealed findings unrelated to my accident, he immediately guided me toward the appropriate specialist instead of brushing it aside or staying in his lane. That level of care speaks volumes. Dr. Leong is a board-certified Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation physician with subspecialty training in Interventional Spine and Musculoskeletal Medicine, and his knowledge is obvious the moment you speak with him. But beyond his credentials, he has something that can’t be taught in medical school: genuine compassion. Some people go into medicine for the career. Some for the paycheck. And while success is well-earned in a field this demanding, there are doctors who truly feel called to help people heal, and Dr. Leong is absolutely one of them. If you’re searching for a physician in Columbus, GA who listens, advocates, cares deeply, and sees you as more than a chart or diagnosis, you’ve found him. In a healthcare system that can sometimes feel cold and rushed, Dr. Leong is the gold standard.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Dawson! I have lived in chronic pain For the last 3 1/2 years due to a spinal cord injury. I Finally decided to stop being stubborn and go to a “pain management” center Thinking it would be a complete waste of time. Dr. Dawson completely supported me trying to manage this pain as holistically as possible. He listened to me and gave me a lot of resources and came up with a plan of care. I just had my second procedure today and I have to say that I feel better already, More than I have in a very long time! His knowledge, humble demeanor, his superb bedside manner and amazing surgical abilities, you could not find a better physician or all around human being. His staff, from calling to ask questions before scheduling, calling back to schedule,, checking in, being triaged by wonderful nurses, to the procedure room nurses, to check out, the experience has been absolutely amazing. I will never go anywhere other than where Dr. Gary Dawson and his staff are. Dr. Dawson and his staff have done nothing more than treat me as family and I’m so grateful for that! If you are looking for a wonderful pain management physician with an amazing staff from start to finish, Dr. Dawson And his staff is definitely the place to be!

It took a minute getting in to see him; but it was well worth the wait. I was diagnosed with Lumbar Spinal Stenosis in early 2025. After having epidurals that didn't help, with the expertise and counsel of Dr. Gary Dawson, I elected the MILD procedure. Dr. Dawson is great. His knowledge, caring personality, bedside manner, attention to detail, and surgical skills are second to none. I'm glad my PCP recommended him.

I just started with dr. Dawson. I have several problems due to cipro and Levaquin toxicity 20 years ago. He is very bright man. I will see him.soon and hope he can come up with a plan ahead. Most of staff is so nice. I had trouble with getting meds at first. Hope that over. I would like to see some good days ahead at 66. I think he is one who can help me. Just have to get in and see what he plans. I trust his judgement and his level of knowledge. Hard to reach office a lot of time. People in pain are a pain. Im praying for better days ahead under his care

Dr. B has been a great help to me with my spinal pain. I've seen tremendous relief without having to take pain meds or surgery which is exactly what I asked her for. Mine is a lifelong issue so I'll never be better, but now I can manage my life easier. Her staff is also always very nice and helpful. I'd give more stars if I could.

I saw Dr Dawson for my initial appointment to discuss my spinal stenosis and a possible nerve block. He spent over 30 minutes showing me images, explaining all available options, and reassuring me that the procedure should provide much needed relief. Very personable, and knowledgeable. I’ll report back after my procedure. So far 5 stars.

I saw Dr. Dawson years ago. I had back surgery in April 2022. When I was offered a choice to have my pain managed at Hughston Clinic or Dr. Dawson, I came running back to him. He is excellent, listens to you, he is funny, and I feel very comfortable with him. He is a very good doctor

My recent experience in Dr. Dawson's office was awesome. I had an injection. He knew how bad I was hurting and got in me in quickly. Knowing how nervous I was about he injection, he and his staff consoled me through the whole procedure. I really felt special and the injection worked almost immediately. Thank you Midtown Surgery Center. You guys are the best.

The service that I received from River City Rehabilitation and Spine Specialist was outstanding. Dr. Dawson and staff were friendly and took time to go over the diagnosis and clearly explained the procedure to ensured that I understood. I had a bilateral epidural corticosteroid injections directly around my nerves in the lower spine. It was fast and painless. Dr. Dawson was awesome, very professional, knowledgeable, witty, sensitive and informative. I immediately felt at ease and felt confident in my receiving expert medical care. I walked away, very Impressed with my overall experience. HIGHLY recommend.

This is the best thing that was done to relieve my pain. The Procedure has relieve so much pain. This should have been done first. It is a lot less traumatic than the to other spine surgeries. I am happy with the reduction in pain. Confidence and mental security has jumped.
