I have Dr. Garrigues to be a very excellent physician. I have seen him for problems with spinal stenosis and other lumbar spine problems, and he has always explained to me what is going on. I just this week had a procedure of injections into my spine of a steroid which went very well (This was my 3rd set of some type of spine pain injections), and for the first time in several months, I am without pain! I know there is no guarantee, but I have hopes it lasts for a long time.
