I had my 2nd series of injections, as step 2 to at least 3 levels of pain relief for Sacroiliitis -MD speak for pain in Lumbar back, going into hip bones. Easing length of time for walking, standing, lifting over 20 lb’s but PRIMAShow moreRILY pain. All to say ; I personally can recommend this MD, Dr Whitten, this Pain Institute, and procedures; opposed to previous #1 recommendation. Spinal Fusion. A personal opinion only with Hrs of research. I journal this to give Hope to one in a decision making stage ; Major Invasive Surgery/ Narcotics/ wks of recovery most recommended alternative. My experience being seconds of pain with injections , administered by a highly experienced, gifted Anesthesiology Educated MD.
The staff called me into the room ten minutes before, for their pre-care exam. All was good The medical gentleman then took me to the exam room and completed his exam. A couple of minutes later Dr Whitten came in and asked seveShow moreral questions as to where the pain area was located. He then prepared me for the shots and proceeded to give me several shots in the pain area. After words we spoke a few minutes and he left. I was given very good care. Jerry A Hahn

I started my pain management on my lower back with Dr. Whitten about two years ago. We started with a light injection in my lower back and slowly increased the level of injections I was getting. My last one relieved my pain for 10 months. I am happy with the results so far and hope to continue to have lower back relief.
Went well
Staff was very pleasant the experience quick and professional answered all questions and concerns.
Always quick to get in and quick to get out, staff is great!

Glad he took the time to go over things with me and listen to what i had to say and he listened and didnt try to push things
Service was awesome. Dr. Westin and nurses top of world Richard Woods
Personable, professional and I feel like he really took the time to listen, explain and hear my concerns. He was very educated in something I feel like so little is known about and hard to find a doctor that competent in specifics. I would definitely recommend family and friends.
Dr Weston was very easy to talk to and I feel like he understood my concerns and description of the pains I was having.
They were professional and friendly and answered my questions. I had never met Dr. Whitten and liked his mannerisms.
Dr Whitten has done 4 procedures using multiple injections. Each procedure I was offered a relaxing non-narcotic med, considering my comfort level. The procedure’s have been minimal discomfort . Explanation & understanding was priority, documented and signed. Prior to my procedures. The artful gift, (or experience? ,) manipulating necessary injections; to minimize the time, discomfort and achieve pain relief, is worth Dr Whitten’s expertise . The accredited, professional and sterile environment were all a comfort along with the welcoming staff and follow up care. B.Hall 2-2025

Takes time to understand pain and how it affects the body in different ways. Dr. Whitten has been awesome and the staff are always a pleasure. I recommend Dr. Whitten and the Nebraska Pain Institute to everyone.
Everyone is so helpful. The nurse yesterday who put the morphine in the morphine pump was so comforting and informative as to what she was doing as she was doing it and there was no pain at all at any time. I have been treated very well.
Dr Whitten & staff are fantastic! Everyone cares about your health & wellbeing.
