I had my epidural steroid injection this morning and I was really nervous. Dr Jain made me feel at ease, he explained everything clearly and let me know what was going on with every step. It went very well, thanks to him!

Review for Dr. Jain

He takes his time and answers any and all questions that you may have. Has been my nephrologist for a year now and I am so happy with the results of his treatment. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a nephrologist.
