Excellent Doctor. He told me everything that I was going to feel. Visited with me. Had connections at WCHC, where I work. Would se him again Am currently pain free!!
Had several new approaches to my care that could be beneficial. Friendly, knowledgeable and professional.
Friendly but did not address my issues. I do not think he reviewed my scans prior to coming to my room. I asked specific answers but got very generic answers.
Very compassionate and understanding
Dr. Dery talks you through all procedures and makes you feel as comfortable as possible. I am thankful for his knowledge and look forward to getting to a place, with his help, where I’m pain free.
He is an amazing doctor!! He has given me lower back spinal injections two times and he makes it a pain free visit.
Dr Dery is very warm, and friendly, As well as being concise, And complete in his explanation of treatment, And all options
Talked me through the procedure. Quick. Obviously some discomfort during the procedure, but this morning I didn’t start my day with Tylenol. Yay! I expect more pain reduction with activity as the week progresses
Took time to explain condition and sowed concern
Dr. Dery was very professional, explaining what he was going to do. The procedure was over very quickly. Thank you, Dr. Dery, for getting me in.
