    Another outstanding visit at a MGB Facility! Thank you for even creating the Spine Ctr on Wells Ave. Such a terrific local resource with MANY gifted admin and clinical staff. Dr. Cho was extremely clear and explained things and conditions to me with a physical model and both my mri images and what more normal images look like. She was kind, listened, offered me options and I feel we came up with a healthy treatment plan together. And she assured me she's there if and when I want to revisit anything.

I was pleased, then, to get in to see her after only five weeks, due to her planned vacation on the September date. My appointment went very well. Dr Cho took plenty of time to see me, explained my situation well, and gave me a good plan going forward. I am very satisfied with the care I received and hope future visits, if needed, will not be so delayed.
