Provider and nurse was so knowledgeable and caring.
February 13, 2023
He showed a lot of concern for my pain & the inability to use my arm as needed because of my shoulder pain. I am allergic to NSAIDS so he offered to give me a steroid shot to help the pain & inflammation. He also gave me paperwork to take to a physical therapy place of my choosing. Since I live about 45-50 miles away from Iowa River Landing I was thrilled I could do this at home!!
February 13, 2023
Everything! If I had to choose one thing it would be that I received a call a few days ahead of my appointment to ask if I could arrive just a bit earlier to do an x-ray. I was pleased that my case was thorough in the Dr getting the information he needed all at once visit to make a correct diagnosis!!
