It was my first appointment with him. He is very nice and seems to know what he's talking about. I have some anxiety issues and he was helpful with me, calm and understanding. Now let's just hope he can fix my shoulder. Then maybe work on the anxiety after that! A+ for my first appointment.

Many visits to correct & eliminate hip pain. Doctors wanted to due surgery. Dr. Mike's perseverance worked to relieve the pain with no surgery.

I have seen Dr. Pontarelli on multiple occasions for various physical conditions. He uses a wide variety of techniques to resolve painful physical issues. Dr. Pontarelli has been able to identify and treat my issues (i.e. back pain, severe headaches, knee pain, arm and neck pain and numbness) where medical doctors have failed. At home, we refer to Dr. Pontarelli as "Miracle Mike".
