Patient Reviews
Feb 22, 2024
She gave me back injections for lower back pain and the end result was absolutely great. Only issue is it looks as though it will be a continual process, but that’s ok as I really do not want any sort of back surgery as long as there are options. She listened to me and was truly concerned about my issues and let me decide on the course of options she had outlined for me. Very good physician and I would highly recommend her
