What Patients Are Saying
“[My doctor] is so very knowledgeable and kind. He spent the time needed to answer all my questions. He spoke in terms I could understand easily and explained the procedure I was to have the next day. The day of the procedure all of the staff were wonderful! He was extremely gentle throughout the procedure. Let me know what was going to happen and why. He’s AMAZING!”

Thank you so much, you are deeply appreciated.”

“[My doctor] had consulted with [another OAM physician] ahead and had a game plan. Answered all my questions about the procedure itself and going forward afterwards. Was considerate of any concerns I might be having during procedure. Has cultivated a good, caring team who works with him in the room.”

“[My doctor] is very thoughtful and analytical yet approachable. I leave there feeling heard and healed. He has gone beyond simply giving injections as ordered, to listening to me and investigating further to make a diagnosis that no one else did. I trust him and his advice.”

-John
“[My doctor] made me feel comfortable as soon as he walked in the room. I went to his office scared and unsure about my condition. He wanted to know everything that happened from my first symptoms. He took the time to listen and he went through and thoroughly explained my test results. He answered all of my questions and he gave me treatment options that no other doctor had and that wasn’t surgery. I left his office feeling much better about my condition, more informed and with a better picture of what my treatment now and in the future will look like. I cannot say enough good things about my experience with him.”
