“The provider took step to explain where my pain was coming from and why.She explained what treatment steps would be effective and asked for my feedback.She was very compassionate when i needed a shot.She explained what my insurance would cover and payment plan if needed”

“Dr. Sears is friendly and knowledgable. This is my second visit with her. My first was a few years ago. At that time I had been told by another doctor that I needed foot surgery. I saw Dr. Sears for a second opinion. She did not see the need for surgery, and I was relieved. The problem resolved itself on its own. She was correct!”
