Dr Sanderlin is always timely for appointment and procedures. He takes the time to discuss the procedure, next steps and answers any questions I may have. His secretary, Dawn, is great to work with for anything needed, ie medication, therapy, scheduling appointments and procedures. Highly recommended.

Dr. Sanderlin321-3360 is very caring and goes the second mile. Six years with him has been wonderful, despite the back pain and injections. Right now I’m feeling great, hope it lasts. I thank him immensely!
