I had major back surgery and it was somewhat successful. Still in pain I went to Dr Kumar. He gave me a shot that eliminated the pain. Amazing. I had resigned myself to living with the problem. I am 71 years old and row with the San Diego Rowing Club. They should put him on retainer. John Dillard

I have been treated by Dr. Kumar on and off for four years; I am so thankful I was referred to him. Not only is he an excellent technician, but, he is engaging, compassionate and concerned about his patients. He does what is medically best in his view, after a thorough discussion and review. I have been helped, significantly. Office personnel are professional, polite and accommodating.

Dr. Kumar hands down is a wonderful doctor! He is VERY good at what he does, seriously one of the best in the nation! He has a real compassion for what he does which is a trait that makes him so endearing. It really goes without saying this Doc knows what he is doing. I highly highly recommend him!

Dr Kumar has helped me with neck pain and lower back pain. I have seen 4 surgeons, physical therapists, chiro, Accupuncture, you name it. Dr Kumar has done shots on my neck and back and the way he uses precision and gets such good results is incredible. I told all 4 of my surgeons I use him and they all say how much they value him.
