I had my first meeting with Dr. Birnbaum recently on a telehealth visit. I am preparing for orthopedic surgery and I have several chronic illnesses for which pain medicine is required. My doctor referred me since I already have daily opioid pain medicine in low doses. He was extremely cordial and sincere.
