I was treated for a torn meniscus and feel confident in Dr. O's diagnosis and the procedures she recommended to avoid surgery. I appreciate the alternative methods she specializes in and the comprehensive program that included sessions with a chiropractor and physical therapist.
i'm still going thru the process and this is a long term situation, but thus far I do trust Dr. O and her as a Doctor. While I'm new to this entire process and trust her judgement and ability to hopefully get better. I still have more to go but have appreciated the help that i've received thus far.
I was very please with my visit. She is very professional and knowledgeable. If you need an excellent doctor she is the one. Thank you Dr. O
this doctor and everyone in her office was excellent. i know i am in the very best hands here!
"Very pleased" is an understatement re: success attaining results beyond expectations. Treatments very professional but most importantly are the results. I had incredibly painful osteoarthritis for well over a decade to the degree that if I wrote a few checks it was very painful. Now I have no problems and have almost no symptoms at all. Anyway in a word: "AMAZING" for relief of pain and restoration of mobility. I never expected this degree of rehabilitation and mobility.
I saw Dr. O because I hated my freckles. She did microneedling with PRP and just after 1 treatment my skin was tighter and brighter. Even some of the freckles started fading. I am now a little less shy about having my photo taken. I was a little hesitant at first to get the procedure but Dr. O explain everything to me and answered all my questions. Dr. O made sure I was comfortable with the process. I'm so glad I got it done and I look forward to my next sessions with her!!!!
Dr O is awesome! She is very detail-oriented and thorough. She makes fact-based conclusions. She knows how to give corrections to patients in a way they can understand. She takes the time to listen, and is never in a rush. Additionally she always runs on time! Overall fantastic experience, she fixed my posture and took away my pain.
