    Dr. Dinakar seems to genuinely care about his patients. He listens and welcomes questions. I have referred him to others. However I'm concerned that it's four months to get my next appointment. That was the soonest. MGB needs more doctors and specifically more specialists!

    I went for an epidural and I had a lot of questions about it and I was very, very nervous about a needle near my spine. But Dr. Dinakar explained it to me and definitely eased my mind and I trusted that he was doing it and he was going to do a really good job. He introduced me to everybody and I 100% would recommend the entire office. [redacted]
