Good News Dr Vaipiani is a Board Certified Pain Specialist

Good News Dr Vaipiani is a Board Certified Pain Specialist. I want to thank Shawn at the Kingman Daily Miner for finding Dr Vaipiani listed in the American Board of Pain Medicine Director in Nevada.

I hope Dr Vaipiani lets the American Board of Pain Medicine know to also list him in Arizona. I didn't think to look in Nevada for an Arizona pain doc, and I didn't search by name, I looked at all the physicians listed in Arizona.

You can also find some information about the 2018 Arizona Opioid Epidemic Act and Arizona House Bill 2001 HERE

I don't know anything about Dr Vaipiani except what I've read. If any patients know how he is with patients, please let other patients know. Here or on Facebook. If you use Facebook please let me know.

Thanks
Jay

Update... Just My Opinion... July 19th 2018

In a 2017 article in the Kingman Daily Miner Dr Valpiani said, "in Mohave County, with its high percentage of the population on Medicaid, roughly half of the people on pain pills are abusing them".

The doctor patient relationship is built on trust. Trust that the physician will do what's best in the patients interest, and the patient is honest about their medical condition. How can a physician treat patients fairly if they believe half of the patients who walk through the door are lying to him. 

When treating pain patients most times there is objective evidence like MRI's and nerve conduction studies. 

Benjamin Franklin said, "it is better 100 guilty persons should escape than that one innocent Person should suffer". 

He was talking about the criminal justice system, but I think he would say the same about pain treatment today, that it is better 100 Patients should escape with pills than that one innocent Patient should suffer.
