Testimonials

What Kathleen has to say

Grateful for Exceptional Care and Relief

“Great experience. All staff professional and friendly. Kevin Costello, USAF PA-C, was so informative and kind. My appointment with him was for a badly swollen and very painful ring finger. He recommended a cortisone shot that worked very well. Pain about 75% better. Finger still swollen but no longer has flare ups of worse swelling. I’m very grateful!!” -Kathleen
