She was kind and thorough and listened to my concerns. While giving me injections up my leg she did a breathing, counting exercise which made the injections feel less painful. Also my anxiety was much improved.

She actually listened to what I had to say about my back pain and explained several different ways to help treat it, including medication and getting a new MRI and having a back surgeon look at the new information to see what he thought some options might be.
