I felt very comfortable with Dr So and staff I don’t have that fear that I might not tell him everything because I wasn’t rushed.

Dr. So us a very dedicated, caring and knowledgeable physician who does what he can to help you manage your chronic pain. I have been an established patient for over 16 years and all the doctors, PA’s and APRNS are the best. Dr. Levi, who was my doctor since the beginning has been there for me no matter what. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone inflicted with chronic pain!!

I have had pain issues for years. Doctor So is the best. He listens to the patient, explains what can be done and what to expect as far as results. He is truly interested in the patient and does everything he can to improve your quality of life. If any member of my family or my friends needed pain management I would insist that they see Doctor So.

Dr. So is a great doctor. He recently started (2017) with Pain & Spine Specialists. He has helped me out greatly in treating a very difficult problem of Sacroiliitis that I have trouble with. His SIJ injections are right on & they have brought me 95% relief of this ongoing problem. Dr. So is also a good listener, explains things thoroughly, and is friendly and sociable. I highly recommend him to anyone that needs pain management and injections to reduce their pain.
