Dr. Li is a consummate professional who is dedicated and committed. His 30 years of experience and knowledge is very much evident and appreciated!

Dr Li is good at what he does- Epideral steroid injections. The downside it's very difficult to get an appoitment or actual procedure done- His scheduling staff is horribly incompetent. It's almost as if there is a drug problem among them. It took several calls, and actually having to go back in twice (plus several calls with no response) after the initial consultation, to try and get an epidural done- a 7-8 weeks of persistant back and forth to finally get it done. As stated in other comments- don't go there looking for a c... read more

If someone is complaining because he doesn't immediately prescribe restricted drugs, weigh those carefully. He is a competent doctor for people with back pain etc. and knows how to administer the appropriate injections (in a surgery center) which gives long term relief. Folks are thinking this should be an easy place to get a pain medicine are in the wrong location.....

He us not a guy you can go to and cry on his shoulder asking for pain meds. He is in and out of the room very quickly. But I think that makes sense. He needs to keep emotional distance with his patients- I would too if I were a pain doctor. He specializes in treatments for pain that do not involve pain pills. To me, as long as the treatment is effective, I am happy. I was referred to him by a Stanford neurologist. She told me he is excellent at treating the spine with non- evasive procedures.

Very poor patient communication. Very poor attitude (elitist attitude). Very unprofessional OR attitude. Poor OR staff (Capitola Surgery Center). Find someone who actually cares. This guy doesn’t.

I can't speak for Dr. Li, but his office staff is wholly incompetent, rude, unprofessional, and impossible to communicate with if you can even get them to answer the phone. What does that say about the doctor who employs them? Dr. Li's physician's assistant botched a cortisone shot--she couldn't figure out the appropriate place to administer it. If your orthopedic surgeon refers you to this office, do yourself a favor and ask for another recommendation, especially if you are elderly. Dr. Li's team expects you to be the exper... read more

Dr. Li is so arrogant! He thinks he knows what’s better for you than you do! He’s more concerned about himself then his patients! All he tells you when you need something for pain is that doctors are losing their licenses because of pain meds, BS! All he cares is about himself not his patiences! I’m so glad to have him out of my life!

The best advice I was given here was when I expressed frustration as my pain actually increased after his unlicensed practitioner payed hands on me was “if you’re not happy then we can discharge you.” Also documenting “tolerated procedure well “ when I leave in tears is actually FALSE DOCUMENTATION. One of my regrets is having sought care here.
