I dont usually write reviews but after reading the previous comment i was compelled to set the record straight. I had a great experience with Dr.Gungor. He answered all my questions and kept me calm and reassured during the procedure. His staff called and follwed up with me the very next day to see how i was. I've been pain free for two weeks so far after months of agony. Hes an amazing doctor and his staff are sweet and friendly.
