I felt like I was completely brushed off. I was recommended PT and couldn't get an appt for 3 weeks. When asked for medicine to help with pain I was told to go to my PCP. The visit was a complete waste of time! I felt like he did not care about my pain

It was a pleasure meeting Dr. Cassat. He has a way of putting you at ease and explaining what the problem is and what could be done to help. His nurse is also great. The ease in which we can contact the office and how fast she called us is wonderful.
