Patient Reviews

Dr. Jeremy Goodwin is a compassionate healer and informed educator with a deep concern for treating the whole patient. He is tenacious and dedicated, and will leave no stone unturned in meeting his patient's needs. This is a true gift, and there are not many like him. I wish there were more.

I was referred to Dr. Chagnon about five years ago and it was the best thing that's ever happened in my medical history! I have suffered from chronic illnesses for most of my life and chronic pain for the last 20 years or so. So I have seen A LOT of doctors over the years. Dr. Chagnon is in a class of her own! She is the most caring person you will ever meet. She actually cares about her patients and genuinely wants to see them get better. She is incredibly intelligent, very knowledgeable about her field and keeps up-to-date on all new therapies. She is willing to go above and beyond for her patients. That includes spending the time necessary to really cover what's going on at each appointment. This does tend to make her run a bit behind schedule at times. But personally I would wait as long as it takes to be able to get the time and attention that she provides me, and I'm actually glad that she is giving all her patients the same time and attention, as that is what patients deserve from healthcare professionals! I feel incredibly lucky and grateful that Dr. Chagnon is in my life and is helping me with my terrible pain issues. I would also add that the people she chooses to have work in the office are also wonderful. Lisa (and earlier Michelle also) has always treated me with respect and professionalism and is always very quick to return calls or emails. I always feel better after seeing Dr. Chagnon and consider myself deeply lucky to be one of her patients!!

I had never met Dr. Goodwin before and nearly canceled my appointment when my symptoms abated over the last 10 days, but I'm so glad I went anyway! Dr. Goodwin listened and explained so much about my Trigeminal Neuralgia that he completely relieved my concern about the possible cause and future possibilities with regard to recurrence and/or treatment. His compassionate "chair-side manner" is sorely lacking in so many other medical professionals (who make me feel like I am only allowed 10 or 15 minutes) -- he was thoroughly engaged with his explanations and encouraged me with a better understanding of the various avenues of treatment that we could consider if needed. I would say Dr. Goodwin is likely the best medical professional I have ever met and that's saying a lot at my age of 71 ! I feel extremely confident to be under his care. It was an honor to meet Dr. Jeremy Goodwin.

I have been Dr. Chagnon's patient for around 3 years and she is one of the most attentive and thorough Doctors I have worked with. She has been patient with me as I have grappled with fluctuating migraine symptoms and been hesitant to try medication therapy. After experiencing a startling increase in my symptoms, I was able to reach her more immediately so she could offer guidance around medication adjustment. Lisa has been instrumental in making sure I have my next appointment scheduled, collecting all of the information needed for Dr. Chagnon, and being a friendly voice when I am calling in need. I feel incredibly grateful to have found Sonoma Pain Management and I can rest assured knowing that I am in good and capable hands.

I've had the immense pleasure of being a patient of Dr Aimee Chagnon's for a long time now. I had a few other Neurologists before her and believe me, I was in HELL before I came to Sonoma Pain Mgmt. Dr Chagnon not only helped properly diagnose me, but didn't offer to cut my thigh open and cut all of my nerves until she found which ones were killing me with pain (like another doctor wanted to do) or tell me "pain NEVER killed anyone". Also, my husband was very very ill, and Dr Chagnon was able to prolong his life and give him great "quality of life". There is not enough Thank you's or money in this world that I can thank Dr Chagnon for all that she has done for my husband (now passed) and continues to do for me and all the people I send to her.

Greatest attribute of Dr Chagnon - patience. She doesn't care how much time it takes, she will run late for every appointment because YOU ARE HUMAN AND SO IS SHE. She doesn't keep a stop watch on each patient. Some patients require a little more attention than others this month, but next month, it could be YOU who needs the longer appointment. It all comes out in the wash. However, she wants to listen and HEAR EVERYTHING from her patients to make sure her patients are taken care of properly.

Dr Chagnon has also brought in Hersey, her patient friendly Pit Bull who helps (I can only speak for myself) me feel at ease when I'm riddled with aches and pains. Hershey is just the sweetest pup and so loving, just another part of Dr Chagnon's medicine for her patients - comfort Medicine.

Dr Chagnon's staff is the BEST, bar none. You have Lisa & Michelle the most wonderful, patient friendly, hardest working ladies I've ever had the pleasure to get to know. They work miracles with the Insurance company's and other networking doctors. So just know, you will be treated professionally, but like family at Sonoma Pain Management - where the doctor is a human and treats you like one as well. God Bless. Thank you All for reading.

I have been a patient of Dr. Chagnon's for the past ten years. My experience with her and her office has been nothing but positive. She is very bright and stays informed about current medical protocols. Dr. Chagnon is also compassionate, a quality frequently overlooked in medical care. She adds significantly to my life!

This is pain clinic #7 for me since 2018. Dr. Goodwin took my case, and he has made a difference treating the symptoms that have made my life difficult. My visits are encouraging and optimistic. Dr. Goodwin has a true interest in helping one get well. He is extremely knowledgeable and I'm grateful to be in his care.

First visit today. The office made sure I had a spot. Very professions and knowledgeable. All options of care discussed. I am very pleased with the care so far.
