She is very qualified for regular treatment but I need an MD for my pain medicine for sciatica. Christina cannot prescribe Tramadol. I was given RX by the Pain Center, however since 6 steroid injections haven't reduced the pain, & I refused further injections or their recommendation that I have a screw in the hip joint, thereby not allowing any hip movement, I refused. They then refused to give me a RX for Tramadol any more. I need an MD for that. Christine said she would help me find one, but so far no luck. If you don't have a Medical Dr on staff in Prescott, I will need to leave Optum.
