Testimonials
I have suffered tremendous pain in my lower back and down my legs due to my history
of a Herniated Disc, Osteoporosis & Fibromyalgia. I became a patient of Dr.
Buenaventura’s years ago when he was at WPAFB where I began Acupuncture treatments
with him. The very first treatment he administered was to my spine area. Instantly my
pain level went from 10 down to 3 and for the first time in months I was practically
pain free!!! I continue to have ongoing Acupuncture treatments (approximately every 6
weeks) and I am medication free as well. Without a doubt, Dr. B builds a good rapport
with his patients and always listens to their concerns, and his staff is always
friendly and courteous.

I have suffered from severe back pain since 1990. Throughout the years I have seen
many doctors and have been prescribed a great deal of narcotics for my extreme pain
issues, although the pain medications really didn’t help me. Unfortunately, the
suffering continued. In the summer of 2007 my family doctor referred me to Dr.
Buenaventura. First, Dr. B did a series of injections in my lower back, and then he
told me I would be a good candidate for a new procedure option called Transdiscal
Biaculoplasty. I agreed to have the procedure, so on September 28, 2007 in Dr.
Buenaventura’s office, a miracle happened… after years of suffering &
misery I experienced instant relief from pain! I am virtually pain-free now, and
completely off all the pain medications I have taken for so many years. Dr. B, I
thank you for your kindness & professionalism shown me and the wonderful gift
of tremendous pain relief!

I am retired from the military, and suffer from bulging discs in my neck to mid-back.
Due to this condition, I have endured excruciating pain for many years. A doctor at
WPAFB told me about Dr. Buenaventura and referred me to his office. Over a 6 month
period, Dr. B has performed Trigger Point Injections, Facet Injections and
Radiofrequency treatments all of which helped me gain relief. Although this is an
ongoing condition needing continued treatments, my pain level is much lower and I am
able to lead a normal life with the help of Dr. B. What a huge difference he has made
in my life!

While on vacation in 2006, without any warning, I had the onset of excruciating
lower back pain. Immediately, I went to an emergency room where I was given pain
medications. Upon arriving home to Ohio, the pain continued so I sought the advice
from several doctors who all recommended I have surgery, which I did not want! So,
my family doctor referred me to Dr. Buenaventura for pain management. Dr. B
prescribed a series of Epidural Steroid Injections to my lower back. With time I
noticed a slow but sure improvement in the level of pain I was experiencing. Eventually,
the pain went away! I realized throughout my treatments how much Dr. B really listens
and cares about his patients, and my results are proof of that!

Many years ago I fell on ice and broke my tail bone. As time passed by, I
experienced severe and chronic pain in that area. Eventually, in the ’80s I
underwent surgery for the removal of the coccyx bone, yet the pain continued. This
was most frustrating because I found it quite difficult to sit for any length of time!
In 2006 I heard about Dr. Buenaventura, so I made an appointment to consult with him
regarding this ongoing pain. I went through a series of Caudal Epidural Steroid
Injections in my lower spine and tail bone areas. Thanks to Dr. B my life has been
restored to normal activity and I am now pain free!

In 2000 I had a pace maker inserted consequently causing pain and discomfort in my
chest area on the left side. I experienced a terrific sharp pain radiating throughout
my chest. Immediately, I consulted with several doctors from major academic centers
and underwent many tests yet I continued to have a high level of persistent pain. A
friend told me about Dr. Buenaventura in 2003 so I went to see him. Dr. B recommended
a series of injections in my spine over the course of a year, and with each injection
I showed improvement. It was amazing, I had significant relief! Dr. B saved my life! I
am pain-free and free of pain medications!

In 2004 I started having pain in my lower back due to a birth defect. The pain
escalated to the point where I couldn’t walk or sit without a great deal of
discomfort. In general my mobility was quite limited with this extreme level of pain.
My family physician referred me to Dr. Buenaventura where I began Radiofrequency
treatments. Immediately I noticed an 80%–90% reduction in pain and regained
normal mobility. Also, I was able to completely stop all pain medications! Dr. B
has given back to me the active lifestyle I love!!!

Two weeks after having surgery on my right knee, I fell on my right hip at the
Mall. Immediately I experienced extreme pain and went to my family doctor. From
there my doctor sent me to Dr. Buenaventura. Through a series of Spinal Injections
and Radiofrequency treatments to my spine, I experienced complete and total relief
from the pain! I believe Dr. B walks on water so I continue seeing him for additional
treatments regarding other pain issues.
