I really like the care I get here. Dr K. has always provided excellent care and options.  I would not go anywhere else. More

Very helpful and nice More

Michael Wolff has helped me numerous times when I have been in pain, with various methods. He always seems to know the right treatment. When surgery is required, he will recommend the right doctor. I highly recommend Southwest Spine and Sports. Dr Overdorff is excellent as well! More

Southwest Spine and Sports has helped me on my journey for pain relief. Dr. Wolff has been there every step of the way and Sheila goes above and beyond to help her patients. You really feel listened too and that is priceless. I wouldn’t have the Amazing life I lead if it wasn’t for Dr.Wolff and Sheila! More

I have seen Dr. Michael Wolff a number of times in the past. I am an avid hiker so being able to move pain-free on the trails is a must for me.  I developed a very bad case of plantar fasciitis about 6 or 7 years ago. It was so bad I could not go onto the trails at all. Dr. Wolff treated me and then decided I would be a good candidate for his PRP treatment. So we went ahead and he performed the injections, a total of two different times about 10 weeks apart.   It was a huge success!  My reason for composing this review is to inform the reader that it has been many years since this procedure was performed....and I have been hiking 4-6 miles almost daily ever since...with no heel pain!    I cannot explain how much this has meant to me. I can only suggest that if you are feeling any pain, search no more....Dr. Wolff at Southwest Spine & Sports is all you will ever need! More

Dr. Kumaraswamy did a very thorough physical exam and asked many questions to understand the effects of a fall I had taken. She immediately ordered the appropriate testing and saw me again promptly after getting the results. At that time she prescribed a course of action to aid the healing process. She listened carefully to my questions and patiently answered each of them. Excellent! More

Prompt response. Excellent communication. Professional advice. More

Shiela and Dr. WOLF are fantastic. They will try everything to get you out of pain. I highly recommend this office. More

Excellent care by Dr Wolffe and staff. He helps you to avoid drugs for back/ spine injuries! Kudos…….. More

Dr Wolff and his team are top notch. Excellent care and customer service More

Dr. Michael Wolff is a very professional, caring doctor. He goes above and beyond to make sure he takes care of your issues. He listens to you and explains everything so you understand what is going on. I feel very secure with him taking care of my back and hip. The staff is very friendly and making sure your appts are made. I can't say enough about Southwest Spine and Sports. Thank you. Highly recommend. More

Dr. Wolff was very thorough in his evaluation of myself. To find out where my pain was in my Neck and Shoulder. Tests were scheduled for X-Rays of my Right Shoulder. MRI for my Right Shoulder will be done on June 18th. Hoping to have a Epidural to reach the area of my pain. More

I am greatly impressed with the team that works together at Southwest Spine and sport. I feel secure with Dr. Wolff, he takes his job seriously, is so professional. How ever so down to earth and really cares about (you) (me)! The other people working there RNS. Are patient, caring and very attentive to all my needs! I love how I feel! They Care! Thank you! I give all of you a 10! More

Dr Wolff is a miracle worker, and has the most incredible bedside manner you could ever find in a provider.  He is thorough, takes the time to explain all the options and executes treatment flawlessly.  He has blessed me with long term relief and I’ve been able to hold on surgery as a result of his alternatives. More

SSS has been helping me manage my lower back pain for the past 8 years. Dr. Wolff and his caring, experienced team have been able to treat my painful symptoms and postpone a probable future surgery. His office and nursing staff are very efficient and utilize the latest equipment and technologies during my procedures. Unlike someone with an injury that will generally heal, there isn’t much one can do when dealing with multiple degenerative issues except to use various methods to minimize my discomfort so I can lead a mostly normal life. Thank you Southwest Spine and Sports and Dr. Wolff for all your help. More

Dr Wolff and his staff are a most campassionate and caring team More

Very pleased so far. I need to have this procedure. More

Dr Wolf is the best! I am from Brazil, I had migraines for longs that I can remember, l had days so terrible that doesn’t have one medication that can help me. Wend I come to USA at 7 years ago, I met Dr. Wolf, he made some exams and give a especial treatment and my and husband go home. Two weeks later I came to the appointment that was previously scheduled. Wend I saw Dr Wolf... I have so much gratitude for him... I told him that l never felt so great and happy like that day that I saw him. I cry in his office because was too much happiness in just so sort time. I never get tired the say that he is the best Dr for pain in the planet 🌎! WE LOVE YOU SO DR WOLF! God bless and protect you and your beautiful family always! Thank you so much for all the good treatment that you did for me and my husband!🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻 Reggy and Archie More

I have been treating with SWSS since 2015. I value their conservative approach and they put the patient's care above everything else. Both Dr. Wolff and Dr. Overdorf are easy to talk with about ny condition and lay out the treatment plan and genuinely care about my long term health. More

Very pleasant office staff, And Dr Wolf and Sheila J are great More

Dr Wolff is wonderful More

Dr. K is the best! Wish she were a primary care! Always takes plenry of time wit me, is very thorough and has options for my pain that work! More

I have been a patient of Dr. Wolff's for a number of years. Dr. Wolff, Dr. Overdorf, Ami, and Sheila are all very professional and caring. I have recommended Dr. Wolff to several friends and I will continue to do so. More

I’ve been a patient of Dr Wolff and PA Sheila for 2 years. I suffer from chronic back pain and had multiple joint replacement surgeries and I couldn’t ask for better care. When I have questions PA Sheila provides answers for a holistic care approach. More

My recent experience was exceptional, the entire staff was curteous and professional. I especially enjoyed my conversation and interaction with Dr. Wolf. Looking forward to my followup appointment. More

Dr Lata Kumaraswamy took the time to help me make a plan based on my pain # and hold off on a more invasive procedure. So far it seems to be working. More

Compassionate and thorough service. No stone is left unturned until the source of the problem is discovered. Dr. Wolff, Sheila & colleagues are very knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming. More

Excellent professional care given in a timely manner. Everyone works well together. Dr. Michael Wolff MD innovates treatment protocols specific to each individual. Top notch. Would and have recommended to family and friends. More

Have 100% confidence in his knowledge and care. Thank you Dr. Wolff and staff! More

I've always dreaded going to doctor's offices, but not this one. I've seen Sheila, who really seems to care about my well-being. My arm was so bad at one time, I could barely move it across my body. Sheila gave me an injection in my shoulder and it was much better for months. I just love her! I used to see Dr. Wolfe, who is phenomenal, but now see Dr. Overdorf, whom I can't say enough good things about. He is thoughtful and caring, and gives me many options for pain relief. In a nutshell, this provider is compassionate and caring!!! More

I had a decompression and restoration of my cervical spine. Afterwards I improved, but was not sleeping or focusing well. Dr. Wolfe, and his team have changed my life. I will never be the same but my life is finally enjoyable. More

Dr. Wolfe and staff are experienced and caring. I had good results with injections for back pain. Usually little waiting at time of appointment. More

I have had injections at this facility several times and each times and it has always been a very good experience. Everyone is very nice and very pleasant. Thy know their jobs and do them very well. I highly recommend Southwest Spine and Sports to any one with pain back or knee pain or any kind of bodily injury. Five stars for sure! More

I am an RN and drive a good distance to come to this medical practice because of their professionalism and caring. I get excellent care here. More

I have seen many Doctors and specialists for my spine and back related issues over the past 30 years. My initial meeting with Dr Wolf was extremely encouraging and I am very much looking forward to working with him and his people More

It’s a drive for me, but we’ll worth it. Dr. Wolf and his staff are friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. He has helped me greatly with my back pain and I would highly recommend him. More

No waiting to see Dr. K once you arrive. Pleasant staff to greet you. Easy parking. Dr. K is very diligent in trying to solve you problems. More

Southwest Spine and Sports is the best. Very caring Providers, friendly and respectful staff. I would not hesitate to refer friends or family for World-class care. More

I’ve been having neck pain. A dear friend recommended Dr Wolf and his practice after a great experience with them. They quickly got me in. I felt extremely comfortable and comforted that it most likely wasn’t serious, but an MRI would tell the full story. I was contacted the morning after the MRI , scheduled an afternoon call to go over results and options and feel better already! I’m very pleased with their professionalism and personal care I’ve gotten so far. More

Dr. Wolff is an amazing practitioner! He cares about his patients and provides enough time to perform the evaluation with clear instructions about the next steps. The office staff is also easy to work with and friendly. More

We have been seeing Dr. Wolff for many years and he is the best! You'll get straight, honest answers to your questions and reasonable and effective treatment. More

I have seen two different doctors at Southwest Spine &Sports.Both were very sensitive to my needs and expert in their particular fields. More

With much love and gratitude to the Southwest Spine and Sports team for all your expertise and positivity for giving me my life back. Dr. Wolff, Dr Overdorf and Sheila Janisch NPF-C have been so supportive during this arduous journey of healing. If you or your loved ones are struggling with chronic pain this is the dream team for you. Southwest Spine treat pouch!👍😁🐶 More

I has a follow-up Tele call with Dr. Wolff.  It was very thorough, we are pleased with the response to the procedure ony knee and have now set up an x-ray of my back. More

I had a great experience with Southwest Spine and Sports. Very professional. Able to accommodate workers comp. I really appreciated the treatments and follow up. More

Dr. Wolff and the entire staff of Southwest Spine are awesome. Very professional and compassionate and I would highly recommend. More

From the initial contact with Southwest Spine & Sports I felt welcomed and comfortable. The staff is outstanding as well are the Doctors. I will continue my treatments here as they are directing me in the direction that I can lead a normal healthy life style again. Thank You Southwest Spine & Sports More

Dr Wolfe and his team are outstanding. His expertise and caring make him the doctor’s doctor. More

SWS is the best. They have been helping me maintain my pian management for 10 years now. DR Wolf is the best. I have tremendous appreciation for him and his staff. There are a lot of poeple out there that really dont care about there jobs. it's just a pay check, including Drs. Not SWS Dr. Wolf cares and wants you to be a part of your treatment, if you just want medicine he is not the Dr for you. He wants you to participate in your recovery and health. He is a Top Dr and his staff is kind and professional. More

Dr. Overdorf took his time and gave me a thorough examination. He asked a thousand questions and went over my MRI with me in great detail. He gave me some advice, some exercises to do and best of all some medication that has my back feeling much much better day by day. My back is 80% better and I only saw him six days ago. Yahoo! Also I want to mention nurse Sheila Janisch. She is the reason I went to Southwest Spine. I know Sheila from several years ago when she was with another practice. Long story short, she gave me some advice to get something checked up on. Good thing I did because I had kidney cancer. I had no symptoms. The cancer was caught in the nick of time. Without Sheila spotting that little something and saying something I would now be on dialysis or dead. I highly recommend Southwest Spine & Sports. More

Professional, compassionate and kind!! More

I had a very positive experience when I recently saw Dr. Michael Wolff for my chronic low back pain. As a physician and acupuncturist myself, I know how important it is for a patient and doctor to be partners in the healing process. This requires compassion, patience, time for education, identifying realistic goals and follow through. Dr Wolff has all of theses qualities in abundance. By the time I left his office I was clear about all of the options available to me to improve my situation. I was also impressed with his staff, all of whom were very welcoming and efficient. I highly recommend Dr. Wolff. More

People are very professional.Their time is always going to help you get better,just give them a chance. More

Dr Kumaraswamy goes the extra mile to ensure I’m getting the best treatment for my condition. More

These people were way more courteous than the VA. The VA driver was given the wrong address for my appointment and I was 20mins late, but the Dr. didn't care and said as long as I make it, that's all that matters and I don't care how late you are. He was fast and efficient in my exam and we grew up in the same state which was pretty cool. More

Dr K has been one of my favorite and best doctors for years. She evaluates and implements a Treatment Plan that works for me every time. Must see for pain management for me it was related to my spine. More

Dr. Wolff is focused on relieving the pain of his patients. He always has a smile, which says to me that he loves what he does. I have found that people who love what they do is because their results are effective. More

I am thankful to have been cared for over the years by Dr. Wolf and Dr Oberdorf. They care and are very professional and skilled and what they do. I have referred my family members as well as patients to them for excellent care. More

professionalism and candor More

I have been seeing Dr. Wolff for over 10 years managing two bad knees, a hip, and shoulder. Recently, I have also started seeing Dr. Overdorf as well. They are both first class physiatrists. They listen intently and are both very good clinicians. Most importantly, they as well as other staff members make me feel as though they all truly care about me. Thank you. More

I can’t say enough about my NP Sheila Janisch. I had been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis at a young age. Many years of chronic pain and this disease can take your body, mind and soul. I feel heard and treated with respect and care. My pain has been controlled with all recommended treatments since starting with Sheila. I can’t thank her enough. More

They take good care of your pain issues. Dr. Wolfe listens to your concerns. More

Dr. Kumaraswamy is fantastic! I’ve seen her for my chronic back pain for years and she keeps my pain away! More

Dr. Michael Wolff and Dr. Paul Overdorf have taken such good care of me right from the start. I had a disc extrusion and Dr Overdorf did an amazing job administering 2 epidurals. In my opinion it was the largest part of my healing process so far and it made a world of difference for me. Great staff, great care, and great work at both the surgical center and the main office. Could not have asked for better. Thank you. More

Everyone treated me with respect and kindness. Dr. Overdorf was very thorough, knowledgeable and professional. More

First visit to establish care. Was recommended from my previous Dr. in Nevada. The appointment went very well. Office was professional and staff was more than accommodating. Very please with the Dr. K I met with, she was very concerned with my health and an action plan when and if I need care. More

Great staff. Very welcoming😎 More

Always what I expect, professional and thorough! More

The offices are very clean and nicely decorated. There is Prell handsanitizer which I used in between moving offices. More

Top notch doctor and PA's! Aggressive, effective treatments. More

Wonderful people, wonderful service and very professional. More

Excellent. It’s about the people, they are personable, caring and kind, from check-in to check-out. And, thanks Dr Wolff you’re pretty cool too. Happy Holidays All!!! More

Dr Kumaraswamy is the best. She is caring, intelligent and capable. I strongly recommend this practice. More

This is the only place to go to for the best, most effective treatments. Thanks again, Dr. Wolff, Carol, and the entire staff! More

I have been a patient of Dr. Wolffs for years. He and his associates are very knowledgeable and always pleasant. I have been to see a lot of other doctors in the valley and most are quick to show me the door when they find that they cannot give me a quick answer to the my pain and burning issues. Dr Wolff and his P.A's think outside "the box" and always do their best. I would highly recommend them ! More

I was in a lot of pain when I came in. Dr. Listened to my concerns and gave good advice and the prescriptions have been helpful. Thank you. More

Dr K listens to me and does all that she can to help. More

Professional and friendly service. More

Everything was great !!Dr. Wolf is so thorough so knowledgeable in what he does, kind,considerate, understanding, helpful I’ve been going to him for years and I really appreciate him and Sheila Janisch FNP-C!!Thank you to all your Staff!Plus the group of people that work at theRFO Office, They are the nicest most understanding, knowledgeable and helpful employees there is!! More

Dr. Kumaraswamy is awesome!!! She takes time to listen, asks the appropriate questions and she performs her procedures with precision. More

I have never had a problem getting in to see the doctor when I am having problems. I really appreciate having the ability to have televisits during these troubling times of Covid 19. Nola Maloich More

Very nice and very dependable always have u ln mind More

I was referred to SWS&S by my PT to explore alternatives to recommendations for neck surgery. I was very impressed with Dr. Wolff & his whole staff! He was very thorough & had great ideas for ways to address my neck, spine & back issues. Thanks, all ! I’ve already passed your name on to several athletes I know! 👍😊 More

I have been a patient to Dr Wolff for twenty years. He has treated me with the ut most respect and has treated my injury with great success. More

Very good communications . Very clear about my condition and scheduling a MRI More

They all very professional people. The clients are their only concern and they run what ever tests it take to get you back on your feet. More

I've been a patient for over 20 years treated for various issues. Dr. Wolff is the best. More

I would highly suggest SouthWest Spine and Sports located at 9913 N. 95th St in Scottsdale. Dr. Michael Wolff is one of the most knowledgeable and professional physicians I have ever come across. I have been a patient of his for numerous concerns over quite a few years with pain and movement.....these would include sciatica, rotator cuff, tennis elbow, hand pain, plantar fasciitis, and knee pain.  The one virtue Dr Wolff has is that he listens to his patients! I do not deal well with needles and expressed this concern with Dr. Wolff when he was going to administer PRP injections for my plantar fasciitis, which put a complete stop to my daily hiking.  He listened and mentioned I would not feel any discomfort as he would first administer an injection called a tibial nerve block.    Well, he did....and I felt absolutely no discomfort at all!Dr. Wolff is so concerned about the well-being of his patients and will do everything in his power to assure that all his patients are relaxed with his procedures.  And speaking of procedures, I like and appreciate the way Dr Wolff explains exactly what he will be doing,so all questions are answered beforehand. The staff at SouthWest Spine and Sports is also very friendly and professional.  I can guarantee that anyone in pain will be happy to take my suggestion.    Regarding my plantar fasciitis problem......totally cured and I am back to hiking 4 - 6 miles four or five times a week. To say that Dr, Wolff has saved me is too weak of a statement. My life is back to being basically pain-free, all thanks to Dr. Wolff! More

Short wait. Taking appropriate Covid precautions. I was there because of a severe problem with right that came up unexpected, week before scheduled left total knee. I was able to get an appointment on an urgent basis. Dr. Wolff evaluated me knee and gave me a steroid shot into my knee. The shot worked and within 2 days my right knee was at 95% and I was able to get left knee surgery and no issues with relying on my right knee!!  Thank you SWSS! More

If you have back pain , this is headquarters for relief!! More

The doctors and PA’s always spend a great amount of time to listen and exam their patients. I have never felt rushed or felt like I wasn’t being heard. Also, I have always been given options for treatment. More

I cannot say enough about the care I have received over the years at this facility. I love Sheila Janisch. She doesn’t just treat the physical issue, she treats the entire person! She educates about the body and why things hurt and why thing help. She’s extremely well versed on her anatomy and physiology . Hands down will always recommend her to anyone in need! More

I’ve been a patient for many years.  There has been some staff turnover but the continuity of care is always present. Dr K and Sheila are both fantastic!  They really listen and I feel like they take ALL things into consideration when helping me to navigate daily pain. More

Before the virus, my doctor was always available to visit in person. After the virus became part of our daily lives, Southwest Spine and Sports made every effort to meet my needs through teleconferencing. I felt my needs were addressed and medically resolved. I thank this team for their kind help. More

Pleasant experience nice employees and my doctor gave me shots that actually helped the pain for 48 hours and I’m hoping for a more permanent fix after my X-rays get back to the doctor. Thank you Doctor K More

I was treated very well by the staff here. Doctor really seemed to be concerned with my pain. He called me a couple days later to update me on how his research was going and asked how I was feeling. Very cool More

Southwest Spine & Sports, Dr. Michael Wolfe, has been my Physician for 15 plus years. While someone else performed the Bi-lateral D'quervan vein, Bi-lateral Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Bi-lateral trigger finger releases, Dr. Wolfe has been the supportive care provider. His office staff are courteous and work well with my insurance to ensure I get the care in a timely manner, and as needed. They are visionary, and well informed on the latest medications and procedures that allow me to use medications, braces, exercises or shots to keep the use of my hands at a functioning level. I highly recommend Southwest Spine and Sports for the reason Dr. Wolfe actually listens to his patients. He cares about doing everything he can to give his patients relief from pain, functioning limbs, and I TRUST him. More

The staff is friendly and caring. Things are done in a timely manner with continuous caring for the comfort of the patient. I would highly recommend them. More

Doctor Michael Wolff is a master at getting pain to stop. If you have spine issues he is a true caring Professional. He gets the patient to experience relief with hands on knowledge. More

Dr K has a great bedside manner. She looks for what is best for patient and takes the time needed to get to the bottom of things. Entire staff has been great. More

Excellent care, exceptional Dr.’s. More

I have been seeing predominantly Dr Wolff and Shelia Janisch for several years. Most recently with debilitating SI joint pain after two fusion revisions. I’m forever grateful to Southwest Spine team for helping me to heal. I thought the relentless shooting pain through my foot would never tone down to a level 5 pain. I’m grateful we persisted through several medications and nerve blocks to manage my pain. More

Dr. Wolff is absolutely the best ortho I've seen — and I've seen more than a few over the years. His instinct is to be conservative and use either physical therapy or regenerative medicine procedures, rather than surgery. In fact, I've never heard the word surgery come out of his mouth. He's attentive and never rushed when he meets with you. The nursing and administrative staff is professional, friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Southwest Spine & Sports to anyone with orthopedic medical needs. More

The office staff is competent and caring. And Dr. Overdorf listened intently to what I had to say in describing my symptoms. I’m looking forward to feeling better soon based upon his recommendations. More

It doesn’t get any better than Dr. K More

Everything was great! The people that work there are so caring, helpfull and knowable! Everything went so smoothly!! Thank You to all their employees!!😊 More

Dr Wolfe is top tier when it comes to his caring and professional demeanor. He took plenty of time to make sure all of my questions were answered. His staff is also kind and helpful. So glad I found them! More

Everyone has been so great here! Dr. Wolff has been an amazing help through my injury and recovery, and the AFDR procedure seems to be giving me some great results. I highly recommend SWSS to anyone! More

Sheila is very personable while being professional. I’m grateful she helps with understanding extenuating family issues. The office staff is awesome and efficient. More

Dr K is excellent, so professional, caring with the best bedside manner and has taken care of me for over five years. I am so lucky to have found her! More

Shelia at Southwest Spine and Sports is the best. She is very attentive to your needs and very professional. She also takes the time to listen to your issues you may be having. I am very happy with the care provided by the team at Southwest Spine and Sports. More

The staff at SWSS are absolutely fantastic! I was referred to Dr Wolff by my pain management specialist in Colorado Springs, CO way back in 2012. When I had my very first appointment with him I was so impressed by him and his entire staff that I stayed with SWSS during the entire eight years that I lived in the Phoenix Valley. When I left (moved) Phoenix this past summer and relocated in another state, Dr Wolff and Shiela, Dr Wolff's PA, said that if there was anything that I needed from them, don't hesitate to contact them. Well, I did actually need some help from them and they did not hesitate to engage and deliver with the help that I needed and things happened the very next day. I cannot put into words how grateful I am for having known Dr Wolff, Sheila and the entire staff at SWSS. I will miss them! I absolutely recommend, without hesitation, anyone who has any kind of spine injuries, whether from sports injuries to car accidents and everything in between, to go to SWSS and see Dr Wolff and his staff because everyone there treats you with dignity, respect, honesty and are, without a doubt, the best experience I've ever had during the past 40 years of having spinal problems. With deep regards, I am proud to sign this letter of approval. Michael Walsh More

Staff was very helpful and thorough. Professional and understanding. Dr was as well. Nice to have a place give you hope after so much disappointment along this road so far. More

Dr. WOLF! We've put so much confidence in him since 2012, both my wife and I, he's never disappointed us. I'm 70, lower back reguilt three times, wife is 61, migraines and back issues, He's the BEST! More

I’ve been a patient of Michael Wolff and trust him implicitly! He has helped me a great deal. I have now gotten to know Dr Overdorff and feel they are a great team! More

Staff is very friendly. Following COVID 19 protocols. Mask is required. The exam rooms marked cleaned and disinfected. I love my doctor, Dr K. Have been going to her since 2012. They’ve moved to Scottsdale. It doesn’t matter that I now have to drive over 30 miles to see her. It’s worth it!! More

It was great thx. Bub More

Awesome. They are professional all the time! More

Dr. Wolff and his staff are very caring and compassionate. Everyone there truly wants to help you feel better. More

My husband and I have been patients of Dr Lata Kumaraswamy for some time now. She is a very caring individual, has a wonderful manner with her patients. She is conservative in her approach and listens to her patients, as well as thoroughly explaining your condition and treatment plan. I have recommended her to family and friends and all have been very impressed and improved after appointments. The staff is friendly and puts you at ease from the moment you arrive until you leave. If you have chronic pain or need to recover from an injury, I highly recommend Dr Lata Kumaraswamy and Southwest Spine and Sports. More

They are the best! More

Sheila is simply the best for all things pain management. She suffers with chronic pain herself so has a solid understanding of the in and outs of why people are looking for pain relief. I’m so glad that Dr Wolff found and added her to the team. I would, and have, recommended Sheila to a coworker and/or others. More

After arthroscopic knee surgery, I was told by my surgeon that I would need both knees replaced SOON. I asked my therapist who or what he would refer if my goal was to keep my own joints. THANK GOD. He recommended Dr. Wolff. I know there are many variables in this situation but the plasma replacement injection were miraculous for me. More

I am very pleased with the attentiveness of Dr Wolff and his Staff. His PA Shiela has made me feel as if I am her only patient and never leaves a question of mine unanswered. I only wish they had a mesa location! There are many friends of mine that feel it is worth the drive and I agree, just sometimes the traffic is terrible after an RFA or knee injection! Maybe if we all mention how awesome a Mesa location would be they would come this way? More

Dr Wolfe is awesome - so many options to having surgery. He treats you with respect and talks to his patients in plain English to make sure you understand your options More

Thank you to Dr. Wolff and all the medical professionals at Southwest Spine & Sports for providing me with the most advanced / leading edge medical care. It has made a significant improvement in my joint movement, pain and quality of life. More

It takes a long time for me to trust anybody. I have been helped by Doc Wolf about 15 years now. I love the nurses and staff, they are always nice and they know what they are doing. I have recommended Southwest spine and sports many times to people I know were hurt. More

I have been a patient here since I was hurt in a horrific accident in 2001. Dr Wolff & staff were one of very few specialists in Thoracic Spine injuries. This practice is so very knowledgeable in all kinds of injuries, and works to find the best solution. More

I have been seeing Dr. K for a few years now. I always refer and recommend my family, friends and basically anyone who suffers from some form of chronic pain. She is kind, caring and listens to your concern. More

Office is clean and inviting. Staff was welcoming and very friendly. Doctors listened to me, both showed and explained to me the plan we decided to move forward with and left me confident this was the best place to help me with my medical needs. Thank you! More

Always fantastic patient service! From start to finish! And getting rid of pain in my back is just a plus! More

Great visit with Dr. Wolff, he explains things and examines a patient thoroughly. Friendly attitude. I learned more from him than any of my recent dr. visits with others. (Just a long drive from Tucson) More

As a former competitive college golfer, I dealt with unbearable chronic back pain for years at a young age. Dr. Wolff and the rest of his professional staff treated and guided me to healing. Southwest Spine & Sports is a world class facility and operated by distinguished staff members. I highly recommend this office. More

Southwest Spine & Sports provides excellent care in a friendly environment. Dr. Wolff has enabled me to stay on the job and fully productive, despite my degenerative disc disease. More

Dr. Kumaraswamy is an amazing Doctor! She’s the BEST! More

Excellent from start to finish‼️ More

I enjoy the staff at this office. I seldom wait and they work hard to fit in my schedule. Dr Eisenfeldt is new to the practice, but has been in practice for a long time. He’s careful with his time, but always gets to the root of the problem. I may have to schedule another appointment for a different problem, but that’s the way managed care is now, plus that’s why there’s not a long wait! I definitely recommend this practice. I’ve been going here for a very long while. More

Dr wolf is great - made me almost pain free More

Dr. Wolfe and his amazing staff were efficient, professional and addressed my sport injury issues quickly. I had two prp/stemcell shots , on in glut and other in the shoulder. I look forward to healing an injury that has been with me for awhile. As a Canadian, i don't have access to this level of care and medical service readily. I have great confidence in his team. More

Below the waist I am an orthopedic mess. I've had several back injections from Spine and Sports specifically Dr. Wolff. I've had knee injections. I've had hip injections. All are arthritic conditions and wear conditions that have been quite painful. Dr. Wolff and his staff particularly Sheila Janisch have been absolutely spectacular in their care and their friendliness. More

Angie at the front desk is the first impression of this place and from the first time I spoke to her on the phone I was treated with respect , care, and absolute kindness. Once back in the office the first class treatment continued. Dr. Wolff spent time making me feel like he was concerned about treating me correctly. If you're looking for a sports medicine place that will treat of you the way a patient should be treated , look no further. They are the best. Hands down. More

Great place for pain management. Dr. K and staff are helpful, friendly and work hard at helping you feel better! More

I would recommend Dr. Kumaraswamy to anyone that is having problems with back, shoulder, knee or anything that hurts. She is so thorough and takes her time listening to all your aches and pains. 😊 The staff is also friendly and very accommodating. More

Convenient location, great stuff no long waiting . Dr. Woolf is great, friendly, funny , listens to your problems .We love our doctor. Make an appointment and you will not regret . More

Dr. Wolf and entire staff are most professional. Having a fellow and Med student participate in initial evaluation (which was comprehensive ) is most reassuring. Dr. Wolfe’s exam and manner left me with a confident feeling that I was in good hands. My procedure went extremely well with minimal discomfort without any sedation. I am now 2 days out and asymptomatic. I have already recommended your office to a friend. Thank you. Dr. Eugene Sacks More

Dr. Wolfe is wonderful. He really explains things well and has a great staff. I would recommend This practice to anyone who suffers from chronic back pain. More

Top notch. More

Dr. Michael Wolff is the most highly skilled and compassionate pain mgmt physician I know and the only person I trust treating my many spine and sports injuries. He utilizes ultrasound or x-ray guidance to confirm precise needle placement prior to injection to maximize the efficacy of his treatments. I won't go anywhere else, he's simply the best at his specialty. More

From the receptionist the nurses a very warming welcoming operation. A very professional well run operations would you recommend very highly to anyone. More

Everyone is top notch! Professional, caring and effective. Would not go anywhere else. More

Dr Wolff personable and professional ,thorough discussion of my treatment options. I left feeling more confident about my future. More

Dr. Kumaraswamy has been a great help to me over the past 8 years. I live with chronic pain and she has been able to help me get relief when the pain gets too bad. She is wonderful doing epidurals and S I injections. Her kindness and professionalism keeps me going back. The staff are also kind and professional. Thank you all. More

One of the few places where the staff does not make you feel like just another number. More

Dr. Wolff runs a great practice focused on patient support and well being. He has personally reached out to me to hear my feedback and it is clear that he truly cares about his patients’ progress and health. More

My experience has been GREAT! On my way to getting better physically More

Dr. Komarshawi was so kind and so caring. It made me feel so much better! Great group of Docs!! More

Wonderful fast service. Amy took good care of me. I feel much better now. Vic More

I have had lower back (L4-L5) pain for 40 yrs. Options are physical therapy, surgery, or just live a life with pain. I have had PT several times & I will not have surgery. My friend referred my to Southwest Spine and Sports about 3 yrs ago. I can tell you, they do an OUTSTANDING job of controlling my pain. I now workout 5 days a week. If you ,or anyone you know, has back issues I would suggest you call and make an appointment.today. More

Dr. Wolff and his staff (especially Carole Woodhouse) have been great. Very responsive to our needs and go out of the way to ensure we've gotten the best care possible. Couldn't recommend more highly. More

I meant yes for Starr I don't know which direction to go in whatever it is they were wonderful how in the heck do you do this well it was somebody asking me for a review and I pushed it on the far right-hand side cuz they were five stars it said no as if it was in the first star More

I really like Southwest Spine and Sport. Dr.K was instrumental in helping me get through a problem that was threatening to prevent me from competing in a major racquetball event. Thanks to her help I have been able to compete competitively and I am looking forward to her help with the final resolution to my condition. SSS has been very helpful to both me and my wife. Thank you all very much. AWJ More

A little hard to find, I have gotten lost a few times . Maybe concise having a detailed map on the back of your card. More

I have been coming here for years and most of the time it’s been excellent but after this last visit I was supposed to be called to schedule my arm and back injections and nobody called. I wanted to schedule before I left office but I was told they would call back. More

My doctor was top notch. My only complaint was that although I was taken for my appointment on time, I ended up being there an hour and a half waiting for my doctor to give me a cortisone shot. They were busy but that is a long time. Other than that, no complaints. More

The only problem is the long wait time to see the Doctor. I am a old patient and the first to have stem cells in my hip. I can only say wonderful things about Dr Wolff. Am very happy to refer many people to him. I always tell him that he “walks on water “ Marty More

I went to see Dr. Wolff in April for lower back pain. I have received over the last 8 years numerous cortisone injections as well as RF to alleviate my pain. This treatment was temporary and the pain always returned. A firefighter friend of mine went to see Dr. Wolff and she received PRP treatment for her injury. Dr. Wolff and Carole are such great kind and caring people. Dr. Wolff suggested and explained the treatment and listened to my many questions. Dr. Wolff then injected my back with the PRP and to date I'm 60% better. Today, I am receiving one addition injection to my stubborn S-I joint. Fingers crossed this final one will do the trick. I would recommend Dr. Wolff and his RN Carole to anyone who hasn't had relief from any other treatment for lower back pain. More

Super thankful Dr Wolff has the experience and expertise to be a physician who can treat you outside of the OR. Being able to use PRP and stem cells for my body, to heal different areas of my body so I can continue my active lifestyle. If I ever have pain he is my first place to go. And usually my last place, as he heals me with this type of treatment. More

I found the staff and Dr. Wolff to be very accommodating as they reviewed the results of my recent spinal MRI and the history of my back pain. They were then very accommodating in getting me scheduled for the epidural steroid injection I wanted to have done. More

Speedy response. Easy to make an appointment. Took time to explain. I. Felt like I was their only patient. More

Have had lower back trouble this past year, and I wouldn’t know what to do without Dr. Kumaraswamy’s compassion and expertise! I’ve already recommended her to another friend m, who is having positive results as well. The whole experience at the office is so positive. The office staff are all so personable and professional. Thank you for helping me with issues that could have become debilitating if it weren’t for you! More

I've been to four different pain, or PRP providers, and Dr. Wolf is by FAR the best. I'd recommend Southwest Spine and Sports to anyone interested in stem cell therapy. More

Very knowledgeable and patient friendly More

I have seen Dr. Wolff for stem cell injections in both my knees, my right elbow and my right wrist. My left knee was done in January 2019 and my left knee was done in October 2019. My left knee is doing great and now waiting for some time to go by so my right knee will feel just as good. My elbow and wrist are significantly better. I am 65 years young and my goal is to play pickleball again. Dr. Wolff and his staff are very kind and caring and they explain everything throughly so I have a very good understanding of the procedures. I highly recommend Dr. Wolff and staff!!

Customer service. Efficiency. Cleanliness. Professionalisms. More

NP Sheila is amazing! Very caring and takes her time going over information and patient needs. I feel very confident in her and supported by her. More

I have sought care from SW Spine and Sports 2 different times over the years. I have been completely satisfied with the care I have received. Dr Wolff was caring and spent the necessary time with me to discuss my symptoms and course of treatment. I also LOVE his PA Ami who has followed me up in treatment. Thank you very much!!!!!i!!!!!! More

Cutting edge ideas for treatment! Knowledgeable staffing. Caring More

Living without constant pain is a true blessing! Thank you Dr Wolff for your kind manner and gentle treatment. I am a fan!! More

Living without constant pain is a true blessing! Thank you Dr Wolff for your kind manner and gentle treatment. I am a fan!! More

It is always a productive experience meeting with Dr. Wolff. Yesterday, I also meet with Dr. Overdorf. This was a 1st time consultation. He is new, probably just out of Medical School. It was a very positive experience, for me. He will become a valued augmentation to the staff. Dr Wolff is going to stab me in the back next Thursday !!! I checked on the exact meaning of the word “augmentation.” It means “enrichment.” Importantly, I am always impressed with Crissel’s smooth productivity. She is “expanding enrichment.” More

Dr Eisenfeld was wonderful and takes great note as he remember a year ago 2018 that I was going on a river cruise. I was in such pain and he helped to go on my trip. More

It is always a productive experience meeting with Dr. Wolff. More

Dr David Wolff is an amazing specialist in this area. He explained my condition in great detail and examined me thoroughly. I trust that he will be able to assist in controlling my symptoms in as minimally invasive a way as possible. Thank you Dr W. More

I started to see this Doctor a few months ago and wanted to let others know about my experience with her. First, when I scheduled my appointment i found out that she is quite busy and I had to wait a bit to get to see her, however it was totally worth it. She took the time to figure out my primary issues and came up with a plan that actually works! She’s not interested in masking up the issue by prescribing pills but rather has other options such as steroid injections which helped me get back to work and daily routines. I’m so thankful I have her as my Doctor and would recommend to others too! More

Five Stars - Had a great experience with this Doctor. She provided different options and I've recovered from my back issues. I used to see a different Doctor at this practice however I'm planning to go back to her based on my experience. More

I have been a patient at Southwest Spine & Sports for at least 19 years. Even when I moved to Tucson I have traveled back to Scottsdale to keep appointments with Dr. Wolff. He is an excellent doctor in his ability to treat and care for the whole patient. Dr. Wolff is a good listener, gives recommendations and choices for treatments and his staff is very helpful in scheduling. I have never felt rushed in his office and have never waited long to be seen. I have recommended his practice to many of my friends and family. Dr. Wolff is an excellent doctor! More

Dr. Wolff and his staff are fantastic. I’m not a easy case and I’ve been to other facilities. First class and they go by my believe. No one cares how much you know, until they know how much you care. His entire staff cares and knows that patients that see them are in pain. Let’s put it this way if he moves I move. He’s giving me aa life back. More

Dr Kumaraswamy is wonderful I highly recommend her. More

Dr. Wolff really took the time to explore the cause of my pain. Everyone I have had contact with has been very helpful and kind. More

Dr. Sherman’s medical staff are very professional, fun and attentive. More

7 a years with Dr Wolf now. He's truly helped make my PHYSICAL Life so much better. Thus my Mental and Spirtiual life stays HAPPY! Thank you Dr Wolf. AP More

I've been seeing SS&S for over 15 years and have been treated very well. Dr Wolf is committed to bringing resolution to a lingering chronic issue. More

My mother and I loved Dr. K. She was very professional and personable. More

Dr. Wolfe is the best! Knowledgeable, conscientious, caring. He succeeded in improving my condition where others failed. I highly recommend him and his services. More

Dr. Wolff, Sheila, and their staff have gone exceedingly above and beyond any other pain specialists we've found in the whole valley to help multiple members of our family over the past 9 years. After our son fractured his back playing high school football, Dr. Wolff's treatment plan took him from having to wear a full back brace and being in constant pain, to becoming fully active and going on to a career in the fire department. I had dealt with the longterm effects a childhood neck fracture for over twenty five years with no real relief, then after Dr. Wolff completed the RFA procedure on me, I was finally free from the headaches, and neck and upper back pain that was apart of my life for so long. My father was successfully treated for sciatic pain and my husband for both lower lumbar and cervical disc problems. Our family owes a great deal to Dr. Wolff and HIGHLY recommends him to anyone we know having chronic pain issues! More

I cannot thank Dr. Michael Wolff and Southwest Spine & Sports enough! I had a very bad inflammation of the tennis-elbow problem that I have (had surgery on this problem 24 years ago). I recently had rotator cuff surgery and the rehab physical therapy exercises aggravated the elbow. I went in to see Dr. Wolff as he had helped me before with my plantar fasciitis, sciatica, shoulder, and hip problems. So I thought to myself, why not go to the one where I have had such success. Dr Wolff performed an ultrasound which showed severe inflammation in the elbow. A week later I was in his office where using an ultrasound machine, he was able to guide the cortisone injection to the exact spot that was injured. The elbow is just about back to normal after less than a week and I am ready to take on the shoulder exercises once again. To say Dr Wolff works magic would not be enough......all I can say is, in my opinion, there is no better doctor to go to if one is in pain! More

For the past two years i have experienced extreme lower back pain. I am a very active person who hikes , goes to the gym and golf on a regular basis. This pain was limiting my ability to do all those actives. I finally went to see Dr. Wolff for an assessment . He and his staff of professionals thoroughly reviewed my situation and by virtue of their analysis and testing , it was determined that I was a good candidate for an ablation in the lumbar area, The ablation was performed recently and I am now completely pain free. Further I have resumed all my prior physical activities. Not only did Dr. Wolff diagnose my situation correctly, he and his staff ensured that all the necessary insurance paperwork was processed properly and in a timely manner to render the maximum coverage possible. One can immediately feel that Dr. Wolff genuinely cares about his patients, strives for the least invasive procedure and makes you feel that you are the only patient he has. I highly recommend Dr. Wolff and will never go any other place. More

Good place to have your issues resolved - think highly of doctor(s) which were suggested to me. Hoping my problems will get “fixed”... but am optimistic at this time!! More

We are impressed with the knowledge, expertise and genuine care that Dr. Wolff consistently shares during each visit. We are always welcomed warmly, each member of the staff from the receptionist to the schedulers and assistants, addresses our needs timely and efficiently, often anticipating what we need before we ask. Dr. Wolff has been right on with his diagnosis and treatment. We would refer to him without hesitation. More

Dr Wolff and his staff are wonderful. I have been receiving treatment from him for several years and he has gotten me to a point where I only need an injection once a year and feel great. More

This place has great doctors and nurses been with them for years due to my chronic issues won’t go any place but here More

Dr Wolff did an excellent job for me. He is data-driven in his methods and decisions, meaning he studies the problem well in order to select the best treatment of it. Thanks! More

SWSS has been very helpful for my osteoarthritis treatments. I definitely recommend them! More

DR K is amazing and very thorough and wanting to get you back to normal with out surgery always have had a positive outcome with treatments, More

Have used this office and Dr Kumaraswamy on and off for over 5 years. Always able to get immediate pain relief while diagnostic testing gets ordered and she will continue to follow up with you to get to a root cause. Sometimes hard to get follow up appointments when you want, but the assistants/nurse practitioners are pretty good. Not sure what others are experiencing with the office staff. I have only had positive experiences in person and on the phone with the staff. Oh and the Scottsdale ambulatory surgery center is top notch. Some of the best nurses I’ve ever had at any facility. Wish I could bring them with me for other procedures! More

Dr Wolff is very experienced and listens to his patients More

Dr. Wolff is the best! He's nice, knowledgeable, explains things in understandable terms and doesn't mind answering questions. I had a PRP injection, which healed the problem in my rotator cuff. I'd recommend him to everyone! More

Been treated at SW since 2007. Been through Dr. Komar, Sherman and now Wolff. Treatment was often and varied as they balanced my care and relieved me, all be it temporarily of my discomfort and most of my pain. New this process was not a healing measure when I started as it was not my first rodeo. Finally approximately a month ago I went in and spoke with Sheila Janisch who I had seen a few times prior and really appreciated her approach. I pleaded with her to help me do something to get me help at the next level. She reviewed MRI's ETC and said she believed there was a good reason to elevate my care to a neurosurgical consult. She spoke candidly with Dr. Wolff and off I went to Barrow's. A consult there discovered some larger underlying issue however I will have a L5 S1 fusion in August and I am elated. Go figure. Sheila! You are my hero. Thanks to you and Dr. Wolff. More

Five Stars - Patient will be given the best she can provide and that puts her at a 10 or above a ten being the best doctor as a DO this doctor is the Hallmark for the medical rehabilitation field. If your in her hands rest assured you have one of the best. I say this in all sincerity as I have been under the care and visited with many doctors over the years. Doctor knows her stuff and is very good at making the right prognosis and providing the care that is most beneficial to me the patient More

I’ve been a patient at SW Spine & Sports for about 6 yrs. In the beginning Dr. John C. Jones handled my lower back pain issues. He was outstanding and I was very happy with their services. Today the clinic is run by Dr Michael Wolf. My luck is holding out. Even though Dr Jones is gone, Dr Wolf is absolutely terrific. I have some serious knee and hip problems and he has personally performed some very effective procedures for which I am quite pleased. The office staff is friendly and efficient and Dr Wolf is very personable and extremely competent. You can’t do better for orthopedic problems. More

I went to SWSP again today for a follow-up re: an epidural I had a couple weeks ago.  I met with Sheila Janisch for my discussions.  She, like Dr Michael Wolff, is amazing!   She takes the time to listen...to suggest the best procedures to follow.  I just felt so comfortable with the appointment today.  I will be receiving an additional epidural for the sciatica pain and will be taking an MRI for my rotator cuff problem.    I swear, this facility, these physicians and staff, are the best in Scottsdale! More

Dr. Michael Wolff has taken care of quite a few of my pains.....severe plantar fasciitis (treated successfully with PRP injections), Hip pain, rotator cuff pain, and today administered two epidural injections for my severe sciatica pain.  One aspect that makes Dr. Wolff so special is his bed-side manner, getting to know and understand each patient, and being a listener.  He is aware of my anxiety when it comes to injections. When I had the PRP injections in my heel, he first administered a tibial nerve block which prevented me from feeling any discomfort; when he administered the hip injections and today’s epidurals, he made sure I was  first properly sedated ...again, no discomfort felt at all.  To me, he is one of a kind and I know how lucky, how blessed, I am to be able to consider him my physician for pain control! Gary W More

I went in today to be checked out for severe pain in the groin and quadriceps after falling while on a hike.  I treated it as if it were a muscle strain but the pain would not subside. It was extremely difficult to bring legs up so had difficulty tying shoes, getting into a car, etc. I took Advil, used Salanpas pain patches with lidocaine.....both with little to no relief. Dr. Michael Wolff took care of my plantar fasciitis a couple years ago and was so impressed that I went back in for this injury. The professional bed-side-manner with Dr. Wolff is just something that is not found within other medical practices. He administers a very thorough exam, explaining every detail in a way anyone can understand.  He sent me out to have x-rays taken of my hips, pelvic bone, and lower back and prescribed 7 days worth of medication for the pain. I left the office feeling "relieved" that I had what I consider THE BEST look at my problem. Now I will just wait to see what the x-rays show.....and knowing Dr. Wolff will examine them even gives me more comfort.     All I can say is....if you have pain, take it to Dr. Wolff in Scottsdale! More

Had a great experience with this Doctor. She provided different options and I've recovered from my back issues. I used to see a different Doctor at this practice however I'm planning to go back to her based on my experience. More

This place is more than amazing and accommodating. I’ve been suffering with tenosynovitis and other complications with my right arm. Dr. Wolf and NP Shelia Janisch have helped me every step of the way to try and eliminate my pain. I’m excited to say at around the first of the year I will be getting the PRP treatment. They are in no rush to get you out of the office like some doctors. They listen attentively and are exhausting all efforts to get me back to normal being pain free. I would recommend this place to anyone suffering with chronic pain. More

Called me less than 24 hours notice before an appointment. They knew I live well over an hour away. Said their doctor will not see me at all without all my records!!! Practice I’m leaving won’t give them to them. I have two small kids (it’s just me) so it’s not like I can just pick up and drive to the valley when there is no one to get them from school. I also explained this was an initial consult to make sure they were a good fit because I’m done with bad doctors (not to get scripts etc)!!!!! I know their PA is amazing as I had seen her for years. Why I thought I’d give them first shot. Thanks for not understanding and the lack of notice!!!! More

I saw Dr Wolff for a small disc bulge and annular tear from weight lifting. He assured me that he could “fix” my injury with a series of steroid injections. I had a series of 3 and two weeks later, I was completely pain free! I returned to lifting and have not had any issues or recurrent injuries since! Dr. Wolff and his medical team are the absolute best in the business! More

I love that Southwest Spine and Sports made it possible for me to live and work with minimal pain. I recommend them for anyone suffering back and neck pain. More

I have had only positive experiences with Southwest Spine and Sports.  I have seen Dr. Wolff, and PA’s and I have found them to be extremely thorough and knowledgeable.  Dr. Wolff was the only Dr. to diagnose me with bursitis.  No other professional ever mentioned that to me.  I am extremely grateful to Dr. Wolff and his staff for extraordinary care. More

Have been under the care of Dr. Wolff for 2 years. He has kept me walking when I would have other wise been crippled from agonizing pain caused by 2 failed hip replacement surgeries. He is very thorough and gives great consideration and care to problems that create pain at any level -all the way up to 10---and beyond.I have never left his office without a plan for pain management and physical improvement. He is very proactive and focuses on your individual issues. I have had the unfortunate experience to be involved with doctors where the outcome was very bad results. These experiences give me great appreciation for Dr. Wolff.Dr. Wolff sets the bar for the medical profession-I recommend him without qualification. More

Dr. Jason Sherman, is my absolute favorite care specialist, and he is one of the few Dr's left, I have found, that GENUINELY cares about his patients care and well being. He takes an active interest in everything he is caring for you over and on top of that his personality is the best! If he is unsure of something, he has no problem speaking with other health related specialists and he has always put my patient well being first. I have faith in healthcare again, because of him. More

Really good service and really good procedures. More

A top notch experience with Dr Wolff! I collapsed three times and ended up in the ER with back spasms, not knowing what was wrong. I was terrified! After being referred to him by another reknowned doctor in town who he had personally cared for, I came to him with my MRI showing I had a bulging disc. What was so impressive to me what the fact that he was able to quickly catch the herniation of my disc that the MRI report didn’t even show! He truly is an incredible doctor! He is extremely thorough in his reports and was able to educate me properly in what was going on with my back and how to resolve this issue without surgery. He is honest, trustworthy and the best in town. I had heard that from many credible sources, and I am grateful to have had the chance to have him help me during this terrible disc situation. Highly- HIGHLY recommend him! More

I saw Dr. K about a year and a half ago for disc and lower back problems. She fixed me!! She was thorough and compassionate and I would not hesitate to go back to her if I have any more issues. Now, every time I go for a hike or take a dance class or play a sport I think of her and how what she did enables me to be active again.Thank you, Dr. K. I should have written this review a long time ago. More

Bye bye Pain! I happen to really like Dr. Wolff. He was VERY personable. Did I have to wait....yes but after going into my first appointment it was because he takes his time with you! I don’t mind waiting, I just adjusted my schedule to fit in more time! He really cares, he’s honest and I feel really wants to help his patients! If he can’t help you he will tell you! Ok the good news...I had multiple issues from doing 29 years of deep tissue massage! Torn labrum in the shoulder, arthritis, bursitis, tendinitis on several tendons and a host of other shoulder issues. Other doctors said shoulder surgery with a 6 month recovery! NO thanks! PT didn’t work. I also had a sore elbow from a previous extensor tendon tear repair in the elbow & a cyst in my wrist. I couldn’t sleep at night and I don’t like pain meds! He did PRP & blood cord injections on all 3 areas! It feels so good to be out of pain without the surgery,  meds, cortisone shots and 6 months of painful recovery!! I can’t thank him enough! More

Excellent Dr - Very thorough/very calming More

I've used Dr Wolff for a few years and am very happy with his care. He is easy to schedule with, easy to contact, communicates well, gives honest and accurate analysis of issues and treats with precision. Dr Wolff is also big on cutting edge medicine and new technology. I received PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) treatment for a chronic tennis elbow and saw relief where nothing else had worked. I would highly recommend Dr. Wolff and his whole office. More

A top notch experience with Dr Wolff!  I collapsed three times and ended up in the ER with back spasms, not knowing what was wrong. I was terrified! After being referred to him by another reknowned doctor in town who he had personally cared for, I came to him with my MRI showing I had a bulging disc. What was so impressive to me what the fact that he was able to quickly catch the herniation of my disc that the MRI report didn’t even show! He truly is an incredible doctor! He is extremely thorough in his reports and was able to educate me properly in what was going on with my back and how to resolve this issue without surgery. He is honest, trustworthy and the best in town. I had heard that from many credible sources, and I am grateful to have had the chance to have him help me during this terrible disc situation. Highly- HIGHLY recommend him! More

I have been a patient of Southwest Spine and Sports & Dr.Michael Wolff for almost 17 years.The experience,advice,medical treatment are excellent.I highly recommend Dr.M.Wolff and Dr.Lee. More

Dr. Michael Wolf is the very best, he is professional, efficient, and has an excellent bedside manner. I was under his care many years ago after a car accident and he resolved my issues medically. Now I have a different diagnosis and have full confidence in him. He has ordered tests to evaluate his plan of care for me. I am an RN and know great care when I see it! Thank you Dr Wolf More

I signed up for Yelp, just so I could write this review. I am an attorney and a natural-born skeptic, so when I read some of the reviews from earlier years, I was hesitant to try Southwest Spine and Sports. Thank goodness I did.I have been have horrible headaches and some arm numbness for over 5 months. My MRI showed a bulging disc in my neck. I had a medial branch block done by a dr. at Spine Group Arizona, and it was a horrible experience. Not only was the medial branch block of questionable medical necessity, the pain was horrible, most of the staff at Greenbaum Surgery Center were rude and inattentive, and I felt worse after. Needless, to say, I was nervous about trying any other type of injection in my spine.The day of my appointment with Dr. Michael Wolff, I mixed up my appointment time (probably because of a horrible headache) and showed up an hour and 15 minutes late for my initial appointment. The front desk people were very kind to me. I apologized profusely and said I understood if I needed to reschedule. (I had done my paperwork online 2 days prior, so at least I didn’t have to spend any extra time on that while in the office.)  The front desk people said they would talk to Dr. Wolff and see if he could squeeze me in.  They suggested I take a seat and wait. They said they did not know how long it would be, but that Dr. Wolff would see me. After such a mess up on my part, I was expecting to sit in the waiting room for an hour or two. I couldn’t believe it when I got called back 10 minutes later and was seeing Dr. Wolff 10 minutes after that. Not many doctors will try to fit you in if you are over an hour late for your initial appointment.I found Dr. Wolff to be kind, considerate, a good listener, extremely attentive, extremely knowledgeable, and willing to take the time I felt I needed with him. One of his younger associates (Dr. Shetty) interviewed me first and then consulted with Dr. Wolff. Both doctors then sat in the room with me while Dr. Wolff talked about treatment options with me, and even showed me my MRI film, and took out a model to show me exactly where he would be doing an epidural on me. At no time did I feel rushed, even though I am sure I put him behind schedule. I also felt extremely confident that Dr. Wolff knew his stuff and knew what he was doing.I had my epidural done at the ambulatory center in Scottsdale, which is right by Dr. Wolff’s office.  That experience was as pleasant as it could possibly be. The place was clean, the staff were kind, intelligent, attentive and very professional. Again, I saw Dr. Wolff’s associate and Dr. Wolff. The procedure itself only took about 15 minutes. Since epidurals take a few days to kick in and I only had this done today, I need to wait to see if I get results or need further treatment.Regardless, I have hope now that my pain has a chance of getting better. I feel that both Dr. Wolff and Dr. Shetty care about my pain and will to do the best they can to alleviate it. As a side note, I noticed some of the other reviews mentioned bad front-desk service. I understand that that issue has been addressed and is resolved or is in the process of being resolved. I have noticed a big difference from when I first called in 3 months ago to when I call in now.

I am a PGA professional and personal trainer. I have had back pain for 40 plus years and have tried all modalities of pain relief from yoga, Chi Kung, and acupuncture to chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, massage, spinal injections, stem cells and bought every contraption invented to supposedly help alleviate back pain.  I was almost ready to resign myself to a life of unrelenting pain and disability until I found Southwest Spine and Sports and Dr. Wolff.  It has been such a relief to finally find a doctor and entire staff who understands chronic pain and has the cutting edge skills to treat it. They really do care about their patients. People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. More

I love Dr. Sherman! He is so amazing. He has been treating me for about a year now. He has helped manage my pain, make me more comfortable, and helped me improve with procedures and medications.He is very caring and genuine. The staff here payss more attention to detail and goes out of their way to make sure that your questions, concerns, and somtimes very complicated issues are handled. It makes me feel more assured and less stressed when leaving compared to Tempe. More

I have seen Dr. Michael Wolf for both my right shoulder in 2015 and my low back in 2016. In both cases he looked for all the details to get down to the route cause of what is causing the pain. I truly felt like a patient and not a number like other doctors offices I have been to. He is down to earth and understand being a busy parent and trying to managing everything as he has 5 kids of this own. More

Dr. Sherman is a dream to work with. He is incredibly kind and caring, but above all knowledge!! My symptoms ended up going beyond my herniated disc and he referred me to specialist to help me get out of my pain! I’ve had a lot of bad experiences w doctors, but Dr. Sherman is amazing! More

Dr. Wolff is one of the most caring individuals I have come across. I developed a terrible case of plantar fasciitis in my right heel. I went to see Dr. Wolff and he took the time to get to know me, my habits (hiking), pain levels, "fears" (injections), etc. After a cortisone shot proved inaffective, we decided on going through the "Platelet Rich Plasma' therapy (PRP).....and knowing my intolerance of pain with injections, he also performed what is called a tibial block injection....making i More

Compassionate doctor with emphasis on professional care - Doctor knows her stuff and is very good at making the right prognosis and providing the care that is most beneficial to me the patient. Patient will be given the best she can provide and that puts her at a 10 or above a ten being the best doctor as a DO this doctor is the Hallmark for the medical rehabilitation field. If your in her hands rest assured you have one of the best. I say this in all sincerity as I have been under the care and visited with many doctors over the years. More

I have been an avid hiker since I relocated here to AZ 9 years ago (from Chicago). I developed a pretty bad case of Plantar Fasciitis about 8 months ago. I went in to see Dr. Michael Wolff who evaluated my foot/heel.....used an ultrasound to see the damaged area and first decided upon a cortisone shot. This procedure was not very successful for me so we met again where the PRP procedure was explained in detail to me. We decided to go ahead and do the PRP injection. I explained to Dr. Wolff my phobia with needles and the pain injections involve. He assured me that he would do everything to make it as painless as possible. The procedure was not bad at all......Dr. Wolff does something called a "Tibia Nerve Block" injection (which is not painful itself).....and this procedure is amazing! I did not feel the PRP injections at all! I was very impressed with how the needle is directed to the damaged area by use of the ultrasound so the physician can see exactly where the needle is in relation to the injured site. After about 8 weeks, I was about 60% better but still not ready to return to hiking. Another follow-up...another decision for one more PRP injection (which I had performed yesterday)....and now comes the positive thinking and anticipation of hitting the mountain trails again , hopefully in about 8-10 weeks. All I can honestly say is that I wish every doctor would use the tibia nerve block method so more individuals would not be hesitant to try this procedure. Bless Dr. Wolff and the entire staff at Southwest Spine & Sports! More

Dr. Wolff saved my husband who suffered from acute nerve pain in his back. He is experienced in the newest treatments, patient and compassionate. Thank you Dr. Wolff! More

Dr. Lee and the staff at SWSS are fantastic. My family and friends needing treatment have all gone to Dr. Lee and have all come away thoroughly pleased with the treatment and results. Excellent medical care and treatment facilities. Highly recommended! More

Injury forced me to make a visit to the Scottsdale location. I found the property was nice, clean and calming. Desk staff politely greeted me and the medical staff treated me like a customer not a number. I was impressed with the knowledge and kindness provided by the Physician Assistant Gretchen Post. My visit had a good time balance of diagnose, discussion and done, not too short and not too long. Gretchen listened, questioned, verified, and created a recovery plan for that day and going forward.

Five Stars - Very good! More
