Dr Carissa is always very professional and he answers any of your questions or concerns that you may have before your procedures with words and not MediCal jargon that you can understand. I would recommend him to anyone who has any spine problems. Just to let you know that anyone seeking an epidural can get anesthesia during your procedure so you don't feel the actual needles. I'm very grateful for Dr. Carrese offering me anesthesia since I'm not a fan of large needles.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience. Dr. was so friendly and talk to me the whole time while he was doing my test, which was distracting. It was great. I’ll definitely be there.
