This is my 5th visit over the past few years. Dr Guru has provided pain relief for decades of pain. It has actually changed my life. A weight has been lifted. He is very professional. My first consultation was over an hour long. He looked deep into my medical history before offering treatment. Once he was happy he provided targeted injections. I highly recommend him.
