Though he was running behind in clinic, he took the time to listen. He helped me to understand what was going on with my lower back (discs are worn and arthritis is pinching nerves), and we came up with a plan. He suggested a combination of medications, injection therapies, excercise and maybe relaxation classes to help manage my low back and siatica. He also spent time discussing the possible side effects of pain medications like addiction. He is definitely not a pill pusher, which I am greatful for.

Compassionate.
