Patient Reviews
Mar 10, 2024
We've been incredibly impressed with Dr. Ihm. My husband was in considerable pain and Dr. Ihm saw us on short notice. He took great care to listen to my husband's description of his back trouble and asked thoughtful questions in a caring, considerate way - it was clear he really wanted to understand every aspect of my husband's experience, not just during the current severe pain, but also his history and what led up to this situation. During the physical exam, he explained what he was looking at and why, so we'd understand the value of each movement or request. He was thorough, professional, kind, and willing to take time to answer all of our questions - we never felt rushed. He was knowledgeable about current research and very thoughtful about finding the most effective solution. He explained things well and shared his thinking throughout our appointment, bringing us along as he considered my husband's symptoms, what they indicated and didn't indicate, and the pros and cons of various treatment options. Because of this, by the time we left, we felt very comfortable with the approach he was recommending. He also made follow-up plans that made us feel very secure, because it was clear he wanted to know about any changes to ensure that the treatment plan was effective and make any necessary adjustments if something changed. So far, the medication he provided has significantly improved my husband's back pain. We are delighted with Dr. Ihm's care. He took the time and effort to find the right solution, rather than making assumptions. I'm so glad we found Dr. Ihm and would highly recommend him for anyone dealing with back pain!
