Forest Tennant, MD, DrPH, is an internist who specializes in the research and treatment of intractable chronic pain. Dr. Tennant has operated a pain clinic in West Covina, California for over 40 years, and has authored over 300 scientific articles and books on pain management.
Dr. Tennant is revered in the pain community because of his willingness to treat patients from around the country who have been abandoned by other doctors or have complex conditions such as arachnoiditis that are difficult to treat.
In November 2017, DEA agents raided the home and offices of Dr. Tennant, using a search warrant that alleged he was part of a drug trafficking organization and running a pill mill. The allegations would be laughable if they weren’t so serious and reflect a fundamental lack of knowledge about Dr. Tennant’s practice. Many of his patients require high doses of opioids and other medications, and would die without them.
Dr. Tennant has not been charged with a crime, but he deserves to have the best legal representation possible to defend himself and his reputation. There is legal help in case needed and one can find this info here helpful.
Please consider a donation to Dr. Tennant’s defense fund. Lives depend on keeping this good man in practice.

Sadly, some in power will use any means to exsert their authority, over others. They may chose those w/ a high profile, possibly they are seen as a threat, or it comes down to making an example. Many times w/o the concern of, collateral damage. Which as we know, w/ this group of players means, people w/ Chronic Pain and Illnesses. Along with those who have put it all on the line, like “Dr. Tennant” to help those dealing w/ Chronic Conditions. It appears an example, needs to be made and we are in their crosshairs. Thank you Dr. Tennant for your work and Steve for once again bringing this to our attention.
