Dr. Daniel’s and his associate Nick were awesome. Explaining everything and wanting to get the best solution for my daughter who is in excruciating back pain because of a slipped disc. Surgery was the best option but because of his totally full schedule Dr. Daniels was unable to do it. He called one of his partners who was able to fit my daughter right in. They were amazing and we are so thankful. L
