We travel over 3 hours to your facility. I have told the doctor that we might be able to get this procedure done closer, but that we take the time to come there because of him!

The doctor allowed me to say what had been rolling around in my head for days. The nerve problems in my legs did not have a chance, in my opinion. In September 2024 the EMG showed active nerve activity, but it was not until February 2025 that I had the needed surgery. The medical world is over worked and not enough doctors. We, the patients are really suffering. Dr. Dalrymple did inject my neck. Progress is being made but not there yet.

He really listens to my concerns makes me feel at ease and has the ability to lighten the serious moments with some sort of funny comments.

We could probably have this treatment done close to home, but we truly like our doctor.
