Patient Reviews
Jan 13, 2024
Dr. Ansher took a very thorough complete history which included my medical and surgical history, family history, and current problem history. He did a thorough neurological exam and finished with his overall assessment and recommended plan for my situation. It was very well thought out. I saw Dr. Ansher for lumbar spine related issues. I would highly recommend Dr. Ansher for his thorough workup and expert assessment.
Excellent and thorough! — Jan 13, 2024
