Walked into my appointment very nervous. Walked out confident, well informed and extremely happy. I had an ankle steroid injection. Dr Smathers had to tell me we were done, I didn’t feel a thing!!!! If my body accepts this treatment it will be life changing for me. I have been trying to self manage my pain with aspirin, wish I’d had the injection a year ago. What a waste of life’s precious time to have waited and suffered in pain for so long. I can’t recommend Dr Smathers and his team strongly enough. Excellent and very informative nurse and aids. All around great staff.
