Once you have the best… Dr Thakur is simply amazing. He has done wonders for my back and neck. He truly cares about his patients. I’ve been with Dr Thakur for over 6 years. That is how bad my vack has been. He is not a cut and rubs doctor. He does follow ups regularly. That is how he found other issues as they surfaced. He try’s alternate methods of treatment before he does surgery. I find it very easy and safe to be open, honest, vuneable and trusting of Dr Thakur. 3 years ago I moved away from the area so it’s a 2+ hour drive for one of his appointments, but I don’t care. Once you get lucky enough to find the best, you stick with the best. Dr Thakur is the best.
