The experience was outstanding
I was very pleased with docs attention to my questions and concerns. Explained in depth
He was very helpful.
That doctor didn't answer any of my questions, and said he wouldn't help me, only told me to do the procedure he wanted. Felt like I was an inconvenience to him. Horrible bedside manners. Will never recommended to anyone.
Dr. Wofla was caring and explained things thoroughly. Great bedside manners. I didn't feel rushed at my appointment. Would highly recommend as a provider.
Dr. Wolfla is amazing.
Dr Wolfla was very good at explaining the root cause of my back pain, beyond the nerve pain. I've seen many doctors for my chronic back pain, but none had said that my muscles were always trying to realign my spine to counterbalance my degenerative scoliosis. This made sense since I only have pain when I'm standing/walking. Also, the only one who suggested a spinal nerve stimulator.
Care & they all were friendly & did a great job!
Amazing experience with Dr. Wolfa & entire staff!
