The staff at LOS is outstanding couldn’t ask for a better place to be. I didn’t have to wait long to see the dr. He explained everything about my issues and the plans ahead. He gave me the injection in my shoulder without any pain.my respect for him and the staff are beyond words. Most awesome people I have ever been to I highly recommend him to anyone with joint pains.
