Patient Reviews
Feb 26, 2022
Great; Unlike other Drs I have visited since a 65’ fall while climbing in 1974, this Dr is extremely helpful. Extremely knowledgeable with a world wide and expansive view in medicine, he knows his field in depth. I highly recommend him if you have long term pain and want realistic help. No magic phoney pills, no instant pain-free scams. PT, therapy , non opiod RXs, and great knowledge as to living and working with your body . Highly recommend. !!
