Are you looking for your own doctor who will personally take care of you?
Why would you want to be a patient at the Advanced Pain Management Clinic?
Do you believe that your complex medical needs are being optimally being met by a mid-level provider such as a nurse practitioner or a physician assistant?
Is it important to you to develop a trusting relationship with your doctor who you see at every office visit and with every procedure?
Do you want to be treated in a high-end environment that truly is warm, caring and professional with personalized service?
Do you value being able to call and easily speak with a person that you know, rather than Ai?
Dr. Michael Willens is an award winning, Cleveland Clinic Foundation trained, double Board Certified specialist who built a very special medical practice not found anywhere else. Though he had the option of “retiring,” he finds so much meaning in caring for as many patients as he can with his limited clinical time. The rest of his professional time is spent teaching, writing, and being an expert witness.
Because of his limited time, he only takes on the complex patients who need his skills, who require a personal touch, and who are willing to do what is necessary to get better.
This is probably why he is consistently voted as one of the best Pain Management doctors in Jacksonville, Florida for the past 25 years.
We proudly serve all of Jacksonville and St. Augustine, Florida..

Dr. Willens is a very good physician, he really surprised me when he went out of his way to resolve a situation, this lets me know also that he is fair and does care about his patients. I found out that if a problem does arise, let him know and he will if possible make it right. He is the best doctor my husband has seen.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Willens was recommended to me for a persistant back problem that had not been helped by other doctors. I found him very compassionate in listening to me as I described my chronic pain and frustration in not finding relief from other treatments. He then made suggestions about what he could do to ease the pain and we agreed on a treatment plan. I would have no problem recommending him to others. Also his staff is very friendly, understanding, and efficient.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. I have been a patient of Dr. Willens office for years now. Also the staff is always friendly and courteous. They always have smile's on their faces. I can't begin to say how much Dr. Willens has helped me through the years and I appreciate him so much. They always go beyond the bare minimum. He offers many different treatment options. When I first started going there I was a mess and I was in so much pain everyday. I felt pretty hopeless and like my pain had taken over my life. Now I am working out everyday, a lot healthier, and most of all I have hope (with a lot less pain).He offers many options, and does procedures in the comfort of his office. Dr.Willens and his staff are more than just another doctor's office to me, but more like family to me. It is a place to get results. If you're experiencing pain everyday and you're really looking for a solution then you shouldn't hesitate to call them.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Willens and his staff are the best (especially Melissa)! I have degenerative disc disease, resulting in pain from my neck to my tailbone. I could not have gotten through the last several years without Dr. Willens. He actually listens to and works with the patient to come up with a treatment plan that is best for them. I would recommend Advanced Pain Management to anybody who is struggling with chronic pain, or just healing from an injury.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been a patient of Dr. Willen's for several years. Consistently I've been treated with the greatest of respect, kindness, and compassion. Dr. Willens, Melissa, and his entire staff set the bar very high with patient care being their number one priority. The office atmosphere is warm and friendly and the office itself is beautiful and calming (from the reception and waiting area to the exam and treatment rooms) and exceptionally clean. Dr Willens is unique in the sense that he is concerned with the person as a whole - not just the injury, illness or condition that brings a patient into the office. There is no quick fix for chronic pain; and as my condition changes, so do my treatment options/plans and goals. Dr Willens cares to take his time to get to know his patients. At each and every one of my visits, he asks me how I am doing and he listens to what I have to say. No matter how busy he may be, he is attentive and I never feel rushed . I always leave the office feeling better mentally as well as physically. Melissa and the office support staff are the best. They make you feel more like family or a friend rather than just a patient. I'm thankful to Dr. Willens and everyone at Advanced Pain Management for making such a positive difference in my life. Not only my pain but my overall, day to day, quality of life has greatly improved. Every doctor's office should strive for the same level of excellence and patient satisfaction.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been a patient of Dr. Willens since Jan of 2018 and I continue to see him regularly for pain control related to several musculoskeletal disorders/issues as well as fibromyalgia . I have said it before and I’ll say it again, Dr. Willens is an angel and brought me back to my most normal self possible with the use of injections, non-opioid medications and physical therapy. And that’s another plus of visiting his office, it’s a one stop shop for all pain relief. As I go throughout my day to day routines at home and work now , where my pain is little to none, I look back at when I first came to see Dr. Willens and was in pain 24/7 and at a constant pain level of 6-9 , and I still am in amazement by his expertise. I love you guys !
