I believe he answered all of our questions and kind of gave us an idea of what's next. Considering the amount of time I've been dealing with my current lumbar issue even after I do the steroid injection I think I will be comfortable if Dr. Elia was able to do the nerve decompression. Something about him he just seems very competent and sharp. We'll see what's next! Thx!!

Recently I developed severe sciatica pain and Doctor Elia in one day diagnosed the problem through an MRI and CT Scan arranged an appointment with a pain clinic for that day, and by that afternoon was heading home after receiving treatment. The next day my back pain was relieved. I cant say enough about Dr. Elia's skill and the proficiency and caring of his staff.
