Learn MoreWhat Patients Say
“First time today seeing Dr. Press. I was very comfortable with him. He is straight to the point but kind and compassionate, and can easily multitask. He is able to hear you, answer questions, and write reports. He is patient and very professional. Looking forward to the next appointment.”
“Dr. Press was a knowledgeable and professional doctor. He was my second opinion. Dr. Press was insistent that surgery was the last option to consider and instead recommended a cortisone injection and physical therapy. He explained my options and the process very well.”
