After years as a competitive bodybuilder, I thought I knew my body pretty well. When I developed a herniated disc, a friend recommended Dr. Groves. I appreciated the amount of time he spent evaluating me, explaining what he was observing, and helping me better understand my body. I continue to see Dr. Groves and Dr. Kim and make a 30-mile drive for care. I value the time, attention, and thorough approach they have taken with me.

I came to see Dr. Shad Groves because I was experiencing dizziness and imbalance. He took time to evaluate me and explain what he was observing in a way I had not experienced before, which helped me feel more hopeful. I appreciated how supportive and positive he was throughout my care and the time he spent helping me understand what was going on. I have recommended Dr. Groves to friends because of the care and attention I received.
