I'm an existing patient. Wonderfull doctor Young fully understood my pain and address it.,,
Dr Young was amazing listened to my problem offered a solution that would be temporary as Surgery is the required next step but he understood that as a nurse I have rarely seen a positive outcome for Spine surgery so he is trying a coarse of Prednisone and if not better then an epidural injection he also advised me that the Spine was is terrible shape so our options are limited but he did not push or manipulate me into a surgical intervention
Straight talker, this is your problem, this is the fix, have a nice day. I liked him.
Dr young is excelent
