Sara was wonderful to meet with and I left the appointment knowing our plan and feeling reassured of the wisdom of it. Sara explained research and outcomes of various options, and I feel confident that we have chosen the right one for me AND I know that if things change or I just have questions as I proceed through the plan that I may contact Sara.

It could not have been a better experience. Sara showed us x-rays & made sure I understood what we were seeing and then did the same w/ MRI. She was very clear about concerns she saw & how what we were seeing fit w/ my symptoms. We discussed options, made a plan, & arranged to meet again (Zoom) to discuss outcome of conservative measures I choose to try.
