Provider Reviews

Dr. Collier performed a thermal ablation. After sometimes excruciating pain, I am now painfree. No exaggeration. I’d forgotten what it was like to not have back pain and the ablation seems to have done the trick. Many thanks.

Review for Dr. Collier

Great visit. Explained everything that was wrong with my mothers wrist. Put her in the correct brace and set her up on a treatment plan to get her better.
