Patient Reviews
Jul 22, 2023
Dr. Munson spent 30 minutes with me and provided a thorough review of my various test results. I appreciated him spending so much time explaining what was going on with my neck and spine so I could fully understand my diagnosis. He was honest about potential treatment, what symptoms it may/may not solve, and gave me multiple options to consider to move forward. He also did his own physical evaluation to see for himself any strength or balance issues I may be experiencing. He answered all my questions, and was very kind and personable. I would recommend him to anyone!
