Apr 13, 2024
I have had three injections I was in and out in minutes since he is a master at performing these. I have had great results after injections allowing me to return to work and full function. He had a great staff including office help who communicated to my work to have a leave approved. His NP Tracey is also great. You are in great hands with this entire office.
