After years of travel and hauling suitcases and 100 lb. trunks of books, my lower back had taken a heavy toll. Before consulting with Dr. Kim, I was referred to “pain management” for lidocaine injections in my lower back every three months, which did not provide much relief. When asked about the pain level, it was a constant 7 or 8 on a scale from 0 to 10. Each time I turned over during the night, I was awakened by excruciating, sharp pain. I had become resigned to limitations on my mobility and did my best to power over the pain. Then some friends recommended that I see Dr. Kim.

Back Pain Treatment
The connection with Dr. Kim was immediate. With a smile, he affirmed my subjective experience after reading the MRI results. “The back is really bad.” So simple and real. “But we can help.” I melted with relief.
After undergoing the procedure, I experienced immediate results (the sharp pains in the night disappeared), then a progressive improvement each passing week. I have experienced an 85-90% improvement in pain levels. I’m up and about, getting around with ease, and so pleased with the results. I’m a big fan!
