Doc Patel was extremely prompt, and took the time to explain my MRI, and possible solutions.
I love that we will start to tackle my pain with least evasive procedure that deals with my muscles.
I really felt confident after my exam and his knowledge of how different levels of the spine can cause discomfort and pain in areas I would of never thought!
I will be going back for a second visit, but, I would already recommend Doctor Patel to anyone seeking pain management!
