Patient Reviews
Dec 31, 2021
Dr. Gay was a bright spot during a painful recovery. He and his staff were always patient, pleasant, courteous and very thorough. He helped me in my recovery immensely with suggestions and treatments that really made a difference. My appointments with him never seemed rushed and he didn't seem "bothered" by my questions. I highly recommend Dr. Gay.

About Me

Care Philosophy
  • I believe that education is a key part of achieving successful outcomes and setting reasonable expectations and therefore strive to include this as a key portion of each visit. Additionally, I also recognize the importance of closing the loop with treating and referring providers and keep the lines of communication open. Additionally, I truly believe that a multi-faceted, integrative approach is important in treating chronic pain and will work with existing or recommend complementary care therapies as needed to improve outcomes.
