Patient Reviews
Oct 08, 2022
We started with him when our daughter was about 9. He didn’t scare us, but communicated the risks and realities. He was really good with encouragement. Our daughter was lean and athletic and truly embraced wearing the back brace and continued her activities. It worked for her and she ended up not needing the surgery. Proud of her and very glad we went to him.
