Dr. O'Shea listened to all of my symptoms and the diagnosis. He showed me the x-rays of my shoulders and explained the issues that could also be causing me some pain. He then offered some treatments that could help alleviate the pain and lower the inflammation. I am going to try PT first, then consider other options he suggested. He was very thorough explaining how this inflammation could have happened and the things I can do to help alleviate the pain beyond the Prednisone and Percocet, which I would prefer not to have to take long term.

I appreciate Dr. O'Shea for explaining to me what the cause of my back pain was originating from, showing my on the x-ray and in plain terms. Thank you for also explaining to me how the prescription worked to alleviate the pain I was having and how soon I could be feeling better.
