    Comments: I was very satisfied with my lower back pain examination performed by Dr Andre Shaffer. Dr Shaffer listened intently to my description of the problem and potential root cause while asking clarifying questions to thoroughly guide his diagnosis. He then put me through a battery of motions, extensions and exercises to rule out a host of possibilities. Utilizing imaging (x-Ray’s) and his physical examination, I am confident on his diagnosis and therapy action plan. I greatly thank Dr Shaffer for getting me off to a great start as well as phoning in my initial prescription for efficient medication retrieval on my way home.-Rick
