He was pleasant, seemed interested, performed an evaluation and ordered x-rays; explained everything. Prescribed a MRI and the office is taking care of the pre-cer. So far, excellent!

Great doctor! I took my mother there for her back pain and he had her get an x-ray and diagnosed her the very same day! He is a super nice, and friendly person, very easy to talk to. Explained everything very well. Very happy to have finally found a great doctor.
