Report
Dr. Prywes is awesome. After being in pain for so long and everyone's answer was to take more pills it was nice to have a doctor listen and try and fix what's hurting. Between him and the PT, Evelyn, I feel so much better since I started going to Center for Pain Rehab. Everyone is so nice too!
