Patient Comments
Dr. Dalkilic always explains my choices concerning any further surgeries. We both agree on my treatment/exercises rather than go under the knife. I did a fabulous job on my lower back surgery. I no longer have pain and tingling down my legs and I am walking without a cane,

I love Dr. Dalkilic. He was very glad that the injection I got at pain management was able to help, even though I still have some pain. He suggested that I have another injection as soon as I can . He said the surgery for my issue was very complicated and the recovery was quite painful. He doesn't want to put me through that if the injections offer me relief for now.

The provider didn't listen. Aggressive; did not take a gentle approach during exam. He ask if I've been checked for cancer, then refuse to elaborate why he asked that question.
