Dr. Rowan has been very thorough both prior to surgery and during my post op care. His review of my prior back surgery history along with the updated testing, provided me comfort in knowing I was in experienced hands.

I’ve been practicing emergency medicine for 20 years we
were out of there in less than two minutes with a limited physical exam and assessment. We felt extraordinarily rushed, It was the biggest waste of $50 and our time that I’ve ever spent. We had specifically requested to see a sports medicine physician and were placed with a spinal specialist. Please have your sports medicine director contact us.
