    I had an excellent visit with Dr Semple. He not only discussed ways to alleviate my pain but also made suggestions as to what other care providers I should look into. He also was very knowledgeable and actually took my symptoms seriously indicating certain things that may be the cause of my symptoms. I would definitely recommend him to family and friends.

    I received a lidocaine/steroid injection to the right shoulder. I was in severe pain with minimal ROM. The PA did a good job, the injection was smooth and problem free. It took several days, but the pain is dramatically redicsd and I am less reliant on medications.
