My husband has budging and herniated disks. For two years we went to every doctor that someone recommended, but, partly because of his age, no one would offer any help. The epidurals did not help.

Then, someone from South Florida recommended Dr. Stephen Pyles in Ocala. He is an anesthesiologist and has a pain management practice. He injected my husband using a live picture to hit the right spot. Burt is now playing 9 holes of golf almost daily, and is doing quite well. Before, he had trouble sitting in any chair but his recliner, and going out was a painful ordeal.

We travelled many miles, went to many clinics, and saw many doctors until someone could help. Don't give up. Dr Pyles may not be the one, but keep looking. Also, Dr. Pyles loves golf, as does his PA. His PA has been treated by Dr. Pyles and she even got a hole in one.
