“Dr. Tran is an amazing doctor with a warm and gentle bedside manner. Willing to hear you and let you be heard. Doesnt dismiss your concerns and fear. He also did an incredibly gentle epidural on me which probably saved my life. I was hurting so badly that it started messing with my mind and will, with his help I feel like a totally new person. Thank you Dr. Tran you really are an awesome doctor and thank you for everything you’ve done to help me.” ~ Healthgrades Review

“Doctor Tran is probably one of the best doctors I have ever seen. He is very thorough and actually listens to what is happening and has treated my back pain. I was a difficult case with 3 messed up disks in my lower back. L3, L4, and L5, and trying to avoid a second surgery. I felt like Dr. Tran understood what I was going thru, with several treatments my pain was manageable. It’s honestly life-changing to not have severe back pain that prevents you from doing everyday life activities. I would highly recommend Dr. Tran…” ~ Google Review
