I was recommended to Doctor Crooks, saying he is one of the best out there. I trusted that recommendation and have not been disappointed in the least. From the staff to the Doctor himself and to his treatment, I have been professionally taken care of and helped. Hopefully I will never be back. Hopefully! But if I need anything done on my spine, I will go no other place.
“I am very-very pleased with my experience and would come back and would refer someone else to come here as well.”

Dr. Crooks is a very intelligent provider. He was very caring and understanding and took his time with my evaluation. It was refreshing to have a provider that listened and made sure that I was able to understand my diagnosis and treatment options. One of the best doctors I have seen in all the years I have dealt with chronic pain.
“Phenomenal! The staff made the experience that much better.”

I have been with Dr Crooks for more than 3 years (with Jessica for a year) and I can happily say that they treat me like family, not just a number. Always asking how I'm doing, how's my family, how's work, etc. This tells me how caring they are, and they are actually listening. I went to a few pain management doctors with no relief, and they had made me feel like my pain didn't matter, they just sat with me for less than 2 mins. Now after being with Dr Crooks and Jessica, my pain relief has minimized and I can now focus on what matters which is my family (of course!). Not only are the providers awesome, the staff are phenomenol!!! I know all by first names, and I always get a huge warm welcome everytime I come into the lobby and from all the Medical Assistants (sending love to Maria, Sergio, Gaby, and Sonya!) I'm so proud to say I'm a family member of Dr Crooks and staff :o)
