What Patients Are Saying
I have been a patient of Dr Furman's for many years. He is very thorough and knowledgeable. I've had several epidural shots and pain procedures done and Dr Furman is always gentle and reassuring. My adult children have also seen him with great results. I would definitely highly recommend him.

Went to Dr. Furman with back and leg pain. After an MRI he suggested an ablation procedure for the back pain and an epidural for the leg and ankle pain. After both procedures, I am ecstatic to report that I am pain free for the first time in years. Highly recommend.

Went to Dr. Furman of OSS for back pain and leg/ankle pain. After an MRI it was determined that I could be a candidate for an ablation procedure for the back pain and an epidural for the leg pain. Had the ablation procedure first followed by the epidural a few weeks later. I am very glad to report that I am now pain free for the first time in years. Would not hesitate to use Dr. Furman again in the future should the need arise.
