Dr. Spear and Dr Sobe were excellent they provided exceptional care really listened to what I wanted and came up with a treatment plan I think will really help. While not putting me on medication I didn't want. They did an excellent job.

Dr Sobey here's a very wonderful doctor that has my best interests at heart and his bedside manner is great. I am very happy with him and while I hope I never have to make a recommendation to my family for his help, I wouldn't let them go to another pain doctor. He is the best.
