Thoroughly satisfied, as usual, with my experience.

Carol is easy to discuss my issues with. She listens with genuine concern. She explains options and recommendations. She is professional, yet very personable.

Best Results and personal treatment ever!

The doctors and nurses really take the time to listen to my problems and are very thorough with finding the problems. This is the only doctor's office that has really helped me and not made me feel like I am imagining pain. So far, the treatments have really worked and I'm on the road to living pain free.

I love their willingness to explain every detail; very refreshing to be heard!

My experience has been amazing. They listened and actually heard my concerns. I felt like I mattered and they really wanted to help me unlike with other doctors.

Dr. Epter is very knowledgeable and compassionate.

Dr. Epter talks fast, but he does his best to help patients understand their diagnosis and treatment options. I would recommend him to anyone who needs pain management.

The doctor was to the point, right on target, and his diagnostic abilities were stellar.

I have chronic neck and lower back pain. I've been seeing Dr. Epter for approximately a year and a half, after having been involved in a motor vehicle accident, and have experienced marked improvement in my pain scores. This has enabled me to regain much of the activity levels that I had lost, due to my debilitating pain.

I felt for the first time in years that Dr. Epter heard me when I explained my pain.

Dr. Epter listened to my description of my pain. I told him how I would get 15 - 20 migraines every month. I also explained to him that my neck and right shoulder hurt most all the time. He then told me about the radio frequency procedure that he does. I was immediately on board with trying this. I am happy with the results and would recommend him to anyone that needs help with pain. I have less frequent migraines since my procedure and only intermittent pain in my neck and shoulder now.

Willing to drive 4 hrs to be seen

I had seen Dr. Epter about 15 years ago before moving out of state. When we moved back I knew I wanted to come back to his practice even though it is 2 hours away.
