David was amazing! He listened to my concerns. Took time to go over medical history and evaluate me. Pulled up my previous 2 years of MRIs and went over them in detail with me showing me the images and and explaining things. He then took the time to explain multiple options I had moving forward and let me decide what I would like to do next. Once I made that decision he was supportive and helpful. I would see him again in a heartbeat. One of the best Drs/NPs I have ever seen!

He went above and beyond and since there wasn’t a spinal MRI done, he took spinal x-rays to rule out any concerns.
