Patient Testimonials

Thank you for all the help you have given me. You are a "rare commodity". Kind and compassionate. Your empathy shines through. It is a pleasure to have a doctor who cares about his patients and not the bottom line. - Sherry M.

I just wanted to thank you for what you do. For all the time you spent studying to become a doctor. I didn't realize how much my life was affected by pain until these last two epidurals you did for me. I actually want to get up and cook dinner for a change! And doing laundry doesn't seem so daunting anymore. I'm sure my husband and kids appreciate it as well. - Diane M.
