Report
The Palm Harbor location is one of the nicest doctor's office I have ever visited. The Doctor took all the time needed to explain my diagnosis and explained his suggestions for treatment. I felt like he was very genuine and caring for me as a patient. I would HIGHLY suggest him to anyone with any neck or back injuries.
