He was very pleasant, professional and informative throughout the procedure. It was a learning experience for me.
He was professional and right to the point. I have a pinched nerve in my neck, and he told me of a course of treatment that did not involve getting an MRI, racking up possible unnecessary bills. Highly recommend!
