I was losing hope and the pain was winning when I turned to Dr Furman for help. I had read about the MILD procedure and ask him if he thought I was a candidate? He agreed and we proceeded. I must say that I was so impressed with his professionalism and his desire to help. While I am not totally pain free, I must admit this is the best I have felt in years. I'm looking forward to his expertise in totally resolving my pain crisis.
