Usually a person is reticent about going to the Dr to receive an injection but I never mind going to Dr Stirton. He is so polite , kind and respectful of a patient. His staff are very thorough and kind as well. I believe the atmosphere and conversation with the patient puts me at ease and makes the injection process easier.
