This was my first visit with Dr. Duran and I greatly appreciated his time and input. He easily communicated his assessment and provided recommendations next steps. I left feeling like my issue/concerns were addressed and positive that recommended next steps offered hope.

This was my first visit with Dr. Duran and I was throughly impressed by his ability to understand me and my knee pain and for taking immediate action with my injured knees. Very kind man and my wife and myself really appreciate his support. I did X-rays and then went back to the waiting room for less than one minute and I was already called in to see him and my X-rays were already on his computer screen and within minutes he was in my room and he got right to the issues and then gave me an injection in each knee to settle them down. One step at a time is perfect with me and to not feel rushed into anything is perfect. Also his nurse was very helpful and friendly and talked to me constantly just like Dr. Duran and I also appreciated that very much. I really appreciate the doctors at the Core Institute. My experience there has always been nothing but positive. Many thanks to all the people involved!
