First impressions are everything! I found Dr. Rowan to be rather impersonal. Even though he put me through some arm and muscle testing, he did not even touch the area that is giving me pain. He looked at my x-rays and basically told me to do exactly what I’ve been doing to begin with. I felt it was a waste of my timing money.
