Dr. Scott was kind and professional. He really LISTENED to me, clearly had a good idea of the source of my pain, which he confirmed by examination, and gave me hope that a full recovery was achievable. He explained what steps I should take -- what to do, what to refrain from doing, how to adjust my workouts -- to help my body recover. He was terrific.

This was the best doctor's visit I have ever experienced. I was called to be seen at my appointed time. The nurse took my pertinent information and I was quickly seen by physician. Following his exam, he suggested a treatment plan and provided cortisone injection within minutes. During this time, nurse was present to assist and explain process. No unnecessary tests or physical therapy referrals.
