“Cured my pain”
I came to Dr. Panagos in extreme pain caused by a damaged disc in my back. He treated me with kindness and understanding and I felt I was in good hands. He took the time to diagnose my problem and gave me a shot in the problem area. The next day my pain started to ease and in a few more days I was pain free. I had a few follow up appointments with him as he checked my progress. That was almost 20 years ago! I have never had that pain again.

“Gold standard for pain management/integrative medicine - a rare find!”
Dr. Panagos is the best doctor I've ever had. He's incredibly comprehensive, knowledgeable, kind, caring and honest. Thanks to his growth factor therapy treatments, I've avoided back surgery and am able to do the things I love like dancing and biking. He healed my partner's stubborn frozen shoulder with laser therapy and has treated countless friends and co-workers when other doctors couldn't. His staff is professional and very helpful.
