Dr Straight is a very good doctor He takes his time with me explaining what is happening in my shoulder and what to expect as time goes on He knows where to give me the shot that will help relieve my shoulder pain
I love Dr Straight He is straight to the point and tells you what you need to do in order eliminate pain or more damage to knees. I appreciate his candidacy.
