I was quite nervous. First the nurse assistant, then Dr Polin made a sincere effort to put me at ease. I had read about the procedure, so I didn’t ask many questions, but if you haven’t done this you might need to ask quite a few. He paid attention to pain and discomfort.

I highly recommend Dr. Polin. What a nice man with such a calm demeanor. He explained everything and was very pleasant to talk to. Now I know why my arm is in so much pain. He explained the results he found as well and was very easy to understand.
