          Whenever I go in, Dr. Sailor always looks up my chart online and then examines my back. He wants to make sure he knows exactly what has been done in the past. And he sure hit it on the spot. I was having muscle spasms, and he gave me a prescription and said to call Monday if I wasn't better. By the time I went to bed that night I was feeling better. So thankful for him and that I was able to be worked into his schedule for that day. Thank you!
