Thank you for finding out what’s wrong with my back my general doctor kept saying there is nothing wrong. You’ll be OK and would not refer me. That’s why I called you myself and back to come because you hadn’t seen me in over six months knew I needed a referral, but you took me anyways finding out what was wrong. Thank you so much and your nurses are all so sweet.

He is a really good doctor and makes you feel at ease. I had to have epidurals and he knew just where to put them.
