Recent reviews

After having seen other doctors, Dr. Martin was the first one to make me feel like he focused on a holistic approach to find success for the future. He was thoughtful about the medication he prescribed, was gentle and respectful of my pain, and carefully explained next steps and what the tests would assess.
Verified patient
Dr. Martin patiently listened to my concerns and performed a thorough evaluation. He is extremely knowledgeable and was able to address my shoulder issue during the same visit, prescribing physical therapy and medication as needed. He is very kind, friendly, and attentive. I would have liked to continue seeing him, but unfortunately, he is leaving the practice.
