“great people”

The staff is great from reception to nurse to NP to Dr. They are cooperative on appointments and changes when needed as well as good at responding to problems when they arise.

“over ten years of good continuous care”

He has supported me through horrors of colectomy, 3 intestinal surgeries followed by harrowing withdrawal from prednisone. The surgeries left me with severe pouchitis, malabsorption, and because of outmoded surgical technique, constant anal and perianal pain. i have cut down opiates and had to have them increased, i am now cutting down ER in order to mostly take shortacting as needed.

“Amazing”

Dr Staniford Helm is a wonderful caring Doctor who has always made me feel comfortable. He has helped me fully understand all my back needs.

“I've moved but refuse to leave Dr. Helm or Elia Perez!”

I've been seeing Dr. Helm (and his wonderful NP, Elia) for approximately 15 years. 4 years ago I moved from OC to the LA area but I refuse to start over with another group. I really appreciate how hard everyone in this practice works to help me with my pain. Tina at the front desk always has a smile and a kind word when I walk in the door after my long drive from LA and she is always extremely helpful with my insurance issues. If you are in pain come see the helpful providers here!

The Doctor took his time to listen and answer all my concerns. it was a very good experience

“elia perez is a terrific care-giver.”

the practice of reducing all opioids to a general level regardless of the needs or circumstances of (me) the patient is harmful. over the time of the reduction, my whole life has deteriorated.

“review”

i have found the Helm center to be very helpful

“caring and competent”

i've been coming to dr helm's office for over 10 years following four failed back surgeries. They have treated me kindly and have addressed and treated my pain issues. My pain is controlled well which enables me to continue to work and live my life. Elia, Dr. Helm's Physician Assistant, treats me monthly and has always been kind and takes time to listen to all questions and concerns I have. I would recommend Dr Helm, Elia and all the staff for your pain management needs.

“Excellent, provider, time well spent”

Dr Helm was an excellent provider. During my visit he had spent a majority of listening to the issues that have and has taken the time to thoroughly explain the treatment he was about to conduct; in terms that I was able to understand.

Dr Helm is patient, well mannered, and very easy to speak with. I would recommend more patients to come see him.

“Smartest Doctor I Have Ever Met”

Dr Helm has been treating me for my Nerve Damage & I am young to have this condition & he is just an exceptional doctor. I even trust completely with my 18 year old daughter who suffers from Endometriosis. He has the biggest heart, and he is very patient and kind with his patients.

He is one doctor who will be hard to replace should he ever retire! :( He truly is not just my doctor, but a family confidante and resource, with whom I truly respect and admire.

“Best Pain Management Doctor around”

I have struggled with back pain most of my adult life. When i came to see Dr. Helm he offered long lasting solutions other than just medication management. I was diagnosed with Lupus last year and between Elia and Dr. Helm my pain is manageable and I am getting my life back. Dr. Helm's staff is patient, caring, and kind. The office is neat, and I never spend more than 15 minuets waiting for appointment with any doctor i come to see. I would strongly recommend this doctor for people in pain.

“Great staff!”

Very pleased.
