Testimonials
What Patients Are Saying
About 15 months ago Dr Furman assumed care for me from another doctor. I was being treated for cervical/spine neck pain. I've found Dr. Furman to be one of the most patient-oriented doctors I've known. He has always taken the time to listen to my symptoms, evaluate potential causes, and offer treatment options he thinks are appropriate. His after-care is outstanding. I'd recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Furman and the entire staff at OSS are easily the most friendly and courteous groups I have encountered in any enterprise of any type. This true at all occupational levels at OSS. Just prior to leaving after a short inpatient stay, the lady charged with room custodial services stated to me "Thanks for choosing OSS." One sign of a well run operation is the attitudes of personnel. At OSS it almost seems there is an ongoing contest for who is nicest to the patients.

Dr. Furman is extremely knowledgeable and experienced in providing pain management. He listened to my problems and had several plans of treatment, depending on my willingness. After treatment I am now mostly pain-free in the problem area and am very pleased. I would recommend him to family and friends.
