Patient Reviews
Jul 25, 2024
Dr Dirksmier was on time, personable and quick to grasp my complicated recent health history. He let me describe rapidly and answered my questions. Then he directed me and explained images and previous neurologist notes. We discussed options, and I will start with a conservative plan for pain and weakness improvement. I would recommend Dr. Peter Dirksmeier to anyone seeking spine or hip assessment and treatment. Lorraine Murphy 7 23 2024
