What Our Patients Are Saying
Lauren, early 30's
“Praneeth gives you one on one treatment, with the attention, care, and time necessary to figure out what’s going on if it’s not clear and to make the best treatment plan possible. He is the type of doctor that everyone deserves.”
Matt, early 30's
“I got to work with Praneeth week after week and he got to know me. He has really strong communication skills and he’s really good at getting to know people. He helped cure me of my issues.”
Scott, early 40's
“When I first started, I was at risk of missing family Christmas because I couldn’t endure a car ride, but now I’ve been pain free for about a year. I was not functional when I came in here, but ever since I’ve been here, I’ve been able to maintain normal life with my family. I don’t know what my quality of life would have been like without having come here.”
