Betty Thomas, a patient of Dr. Hassassian:

In addition to being brilliant, he takes the time to listen to you. He did a great job of explaining the more complicated aspects of each treatment to me. Together, we were able to make the right decisions for my health.”

Betty suffered many years from chronic low back pain. After surgery, injections, and radiofrequency neurotomy could not provide sustained pain relief, Dr. Hassassian recommended peripheral nerve stimulation which ended up being the treatment that got her back to full function. (To continue reading Betty’s full story about how Dr. Hassassian helped her, click here.)
