The docs amazing! However if you are there to remove... have a friend come with you. I moved my ligament while he was trying to treat something. He could have used help to keep me still.

Dr. Frerker is great, he really took the time to hear everything that was going on and explain what/how the body works in terms of ruling out potential ailments causing my symptoms.
