Dr. Lichten’s lighthearted personality makes every procedure an enjoyable experience. Not to mention leaving his room always equals pain relief for months at a time!

Doctor Lichtenstein and his nurse Heather were friendly, welcoming and in tune with my needs. Dr Lichtenstein took his time and listened to my problems and took his time in explaining his thoughts and ideas he had for my diagnosis. I felt as if I was talking to a peer. I was part of the team, not just another patient.
