I started seeing Dr. Rema in 2018. He has helped me immensely with my back and sciatica issues. He is caring and spends the time needed to assist patients with their pain management and care.

I recommend Dr. Rema to anyone seeking relief from chronic pain issues who other doctors have not helped by other doctors.
