Patient Reviews
Nov 21, 2025
Dr. Carnel was very straightforward and didn’t waste any time explaining the situation, how I got to this point and the options that may be possible when a thorough review of the MRI is completed.He struck me as a very knowledgeable Doctor who has confidence in accessing some rather complex issues and that totally makes me feel a lot better of what I am up against.
