Patient Reviews
Jan 25, 2025
Having been Dr Howell’s patient some years ago, I knew this was going to be a good visit! He explained what was causing the pain and what he needed to do to alleviate it. I left knowing I was on the road to recovery. Dr Howell is personable, professional and approachable. It was indeed a good choice of a physician and a good visit.
