Excellent service.
Dr. Marr is the best! I travel two hours there and two hours back to have him care for me, and it is worth every minute. This is the second time he has helped me with what , to me, was a serious problem. I was off my feet and in pain for four months while trying different doctors in my area. I should have gone straight to Dr. Marr in the first place. . Best there is!
He shows a lot of common sense
Polite, courteous, professional, knowledgeable, explained my medical condition & treatment options.
I appreciate that Dr. Marr keeps me informed of my condition and the plan along the way to make it better.
Dr. Marr took his time with me, I didn't feel rushed or that my issues were not important to him. He did not pressure me to make a decision for surgery, however explained my options.
Very professional and also a down to earth personality. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
