In patients' words

"Dr Dennis and his entire staff have been a true blessing. I came to them scared and in pain and they helped me so much. Dr Dennis explains everything so perfect and is such an example of what every doctor should be like."

Vitals (Patient review for Dr. Steven C. Dennis)

"I definitely would not recommend Dr. Richard S Lee of Newport Orthopedic Institute (spine). I found Dr. Lee to be very uninterested in my situation, not engaging and did not provide basic answers to my questions... I asked many questions which he simply refused to answer."

Healthgrades (Patient review for Dr. Richard Lee)

"They need to rename the pain management team to simply the pain team because in addition to the physical pain I'm suffering from trying to work with the pain team is painful."
