    Dr. Prussin cares about me as a person and wants to get to the bottom of my problem. I have had providers who get me in and out so fast and nothing is done for me then I wonder why I even bothered going in. I just pay a lot of money for nothing. I didnt feel this way at all with Dr. Prussin. Hes a caring doctor.
