The doctor and the clinical staff were great. The helpfulness and demeanor of the front office staff left a lot to be desired. They were however very busy and as one receptionist said understaffed.

I would highly recommend Dr. Sweitzer. Diagnosis was quick, staff is very professional. Dr. read my file before visiting me, with couple of direct questions and answers he was able to identify the issue. I felt he is very professional and gave me options without complicating things. Within no time you are out with all your treatment options.
You will not feel under pressure to do bunch of tests and procedures for something which can be treated by some physical therapy or basic excerise.
I tried multiple places for appointment and could not get one due to July 4 holiday weekend. Luckily I was able to find appointment here.
