The best
He is good at what he does
He listens, he understands, he is highly competent, his bedside manner is great. If there was something more I could say to praise him, I would!
Always informative and professional.
I was TERRIFIED going in to get my first L3-4 injection. Dr Ibazebo and his assistant were calming, understanding and over all just amazing humans. He has the lightest most gentle touch. I never felt any pain. I will never go anywhere else. Dr Ibazebo took TIME to talk to me and really LISTENED and addressed my concerns with compassion. I will recommend Dr Ibazebo to everyone I know. My daughter went and same thing, supreme treatment, zero pain. We love you Dr Ibazebo, thank you for a wonderful experience even thought there were needles involved, which, I have an enormous debilitating fear of!! Injection conquered!!! I’m proud of all of us because I didn’t think was going to make it through the front door!!
Great Guy! GO DUKE!!
