Knowledgeable and patient with my questions. Had a medial branch block performed a week after consult. I was in and out the office is less than 20 minutes. The procedure itself was a breeze. I’ve had more pain getting my teeth cleaned than getting my lumbar vertebrae nerves numbed. Very pleased with everything!

— Sean&Sandy Drvenkar.
★★★★

Of all the appointments with specialist in regards to my degenerative disc disease, this was by far 1 of the best. Unlike the quick to cut you surgeons that I've seen, the doctor I met with actually listened to me express my fears and concerns. It's nice to be allowed to talk when it's my money.
