TRIAD REGION PATIENT

Dr. Ramos is an awesome doctor. He is very understanding of your needs. He has as they say, a great bedside manner. I have been going to him for years with my back. My husband goes to another pain management and I have a friend that does too and their doctors do not even closely compare to Dr. Ramos. I would never, ever think of going anywhere else.
