Great listener, understands what you are trying to convey and then points out the options. It is always a good experience seeing this Doctor.

I had my first online appointment with Dr Lieberman today and even in a short period I felt I came out with a much better understanding of my condition, and a much more solid answer than I have had in the past 4 years from seeing many doctors. I feel confident going forward that we have a plan in place to manage my care/pain and hopefully in the future get me to a more stable point. Thank you for listening and taking the time to explain everything to me, I look forward to the next step!

I was not listened to by this doctor and was told many times that the pain is in my head. Whilst I understand that some pain can relate back to an accident, mine is most certainly not that. The pain I feel is true & honest. After requesting that my MRI is analysed by a specialist in that area I was told that is not possible & injection is the only option I am left with.

I came to my initial appointment at Pain Clinic feeling slightly foolish, as no obvious physical cause had been found for my pain, which could be mild one day and debilitating the next, I just knew it was called Fibromyalgia. Also, as a health professional myself, it is sometimes difficult to reach out for help, however Dr Lieberman put me at ease, listened carefully, and was non-judgemental. He gave an excellent, understandable explanation (with illustration) of what was happening within my body to make me feel such pain. I really appreciated Dr Lieberman’s holistic approach, and also his suggestion to try some non-medical methods initially, including using some natural products, graded exercise, and attending an information session about different ways to manage pain. Dr Lieberman also made it clear that I could get in touch if I needed to (giving me a contact card), which made me feel really supported. I came out of my appointment with a much better understanding of my pain, and not feeling foolish any more. Thank you so much to Dr Lieberman and his team, you are a credit to the NHS.

I have been a patient of Dr Lieberman for around 16 years. I had tried many pain medications before being referred to the Baguley Pain clinic, none worked for me. They either didn't lessen the pain or made my brain so befuddled I was sleeping the day away, every day, which is not a life I wanted. I have regular Lidocaine infusions at the clinic. They don't take all the pain away but reduces it to a level I can cope with. I know they don't work for everyone. I did try other treatments at the clinic before the infusions but they didn't work for me. If something doesn't work Dr Lieberman will keep trying until he finds what does work for a patient. He is an amazing consultant, kind and very supportive. He also has an incredibly dedicated, caring and equally supportive staff team working with him. They make each visit as easy and comfortable as possible.
