“This was my first visit and it will not be my last. I went to a pain management specialist for the past 2 years. After 2 lumber shots and therapy, and MRI they could not tell me why I still had pain going down my legs. Dr Suratwala had x-rays taken before I was seen. The doctor asked questions and listened to my issues. Once he saw the x-rays I finally had an answer for why I have been in pain for the past 2 years. He took the time to explain the x-rays and even pulled up my previous MRI with the other doctor and showed the similarities. We discussed my options and agreed on a plan. Very good first visit. ”
