"Were it not for Rob and his excellent staff, I would have most likely subjected myself to lumbar spine surgery.

Rob's clinical knowledge of lumbar spine injuries, and, correct core stabilization with a correct rehab program, has allowed me to continue mtn and road biking, weight-lifting and remaining active in my lifestyle."
