Very knowledgeable and personable 👌
Always friendly; prescribes what is needed for pain whether prescriptions, injections, surgeries! Have had all!
Very thorough, takes time to explain.
Sit in exam room to long.
My back surgery went great! I couldn’t ask for any better! I was nervous about the Athens hospital as I’d never been there. That was all great too! Highly recommend!
Awesome doctor!
Wonderful doctor. Very caring.

Always very friendly and helpful
