Patient Reviews
Apr 17, 2024
Dr. Baaj from the first visit was very friendly and explained everything thoroughly. I’ve been dealing with back pain since I was 20 years old (26 now) and have seen many doctors. No one has seemed to fully understand my pain and pin point exactly where it is coming from. I have had many procedures and surgeries to try to help. I just had surgery with him 2 weeks ago and already I feel better. Time and healing will tell how it has really changed my life but I have high hopes. I’m very thankful for Dr. Baaj and I have hope to be able to live my young life to the fullest and start a family!! Thank you Dr. Baaj!!
