I came to this provider due to an accidental injury that I received during a previous surgery that he had nothing to do with. He was basically kind enough to take over my care when I needed a specialist. [...] He did recommend another procedure that did help me, and put me in contact with yet another specialist who hopefully will be able to fix my problem.
