Again, as I indicated to you above, Dr. Kihlken himself was equally kind, decent, and a consummate professional. He showed me both the MRI scan and a 3D spine model to explain what was taking place in my body, and his explanation was so very clear and simple, that I had no problems understanding what is going on in my body. He explained the options he recommends for my moving forward, and again, I had no problems understanding anything, as a layperson. Thank you, Dr. Kihlken.
