Excellent
Neefs 2 lusten more of patients complaints, instead of next procedure 2 more money in pocket. Evwrything is geated 4 symptoms & NOT THE CAUSE. ALL I want is Laser Sugery, , not "blocks", "ablations " just try new procedures. I had it in 02/16. Best durgery 8 ever had. Pain free for 6.5 yrs. Time 2 have Laser Surgery again.
He was clear about my options and what to expect. Very informative
Shows genuine concern about my pain. Not judgemental.
When it comes to my spine Dr. Howard is the only one I trust. He is excellent.
Efficient, knowledgeable & personable!
No BS. Straight information of treatment options and honest expectations for recovery
Dr. Howard is top notch!
Let’s hope he can find the cause of my pain. Very polite doctor.
This is definitely my doctor. Always great to see him given the circumstances.
