I have suffer from chronic migraines. I went to multiple doctors, even the Emergency Room and was brushed off with "oh, you are just suffering from tension headaches." I luckily read online about seeing a neurologist for how I waShow mores feeling. All the neurologists I had called had a 6-9 week wait. Thankfully, I started calling offices suggested by my insurance and Dr. Fulton happened to have an opening 4 days later. I was so excited, hopefully I would get some real answers and be listened to rather than shoved off, I thought. Dr. Fulton definitely listened!!! After having some tests and MRI done, we met again. She diagnosed me and we started a treatment plan. After a few methods, we went for botox. I see her quarterly for the injections. We discuss any concerns I may have before the injections. I have been her patient for over 2 years and plan to be for as many years as my condition continues!! I feel extremely confident in her treatment and her ever growing medical knowledge. I always look forward to my appointments with her. She has a great attitude and bed-side manner. Thank you, Dr. Fulton!! :)
Dr. Clop listened well and answered all my questions; she was patient, and obviously very experienced. I was experiencing substantial functional limitations from carpal tunnel syndrome with serious nerve pains in both wrists. She Show moregave me a steroid injection in both wrists yesterday. Today, complete functionality is virtually 100% restored in both wrists, save a little tingling in just the affect finger tips. I will do the prescribed exercises and wear the wrist braces at night and see what result I get. But today I am very, very happy with the outcome and the restoration of normal function so far!
