Finding Dr. Kumar was a blessing! 6 years of constant pain, injections, medications and disappointment I am now ready to restart my life again because of him. The spinal stimulator has been a God sent and the knowledge that he and his staff have, the compassion and patience to walk you through every detail and answer question big or small and be there for you goes without saying! Fantastic staff and Dr. Kumar thank you so much for your kindness and understanding. Your seminars are top notch and informative also.

I had been in severe chronic pain for several years. Dr. Kumar was able to help me reduce my pain significantly and take me off the high dose of opioids I had been on. with the spinal cord stimulator I now have a remote control to turn down the pain like lowering the volume on a TV set. The procedure was simple, outpatient, and easily reversible.
Thank you Dr. Kumar; I can live my life again.

Dr Kumar is a phenomenal doctor. I’ve been seeing him for almost six years and he’s done for me, more than any other pain specialist has. He does radiofrequency on my neck and back and a bunch of other injections. If he wasn’t for him I would’ve lost function in my left leg. He cares about his patients and he does anything and everything for them. I don’t know where I’d be without him!!!!!
