Dr. Moldawer missed the boat with me. I gave him my long history of lower-back pain and leg numbness—plus a recent MRI and EMG—but he was clueless about how to fix my pain. He tried an epidural injection at L5, which didn't work, and then another at L4. That didn't work, either. After the second injection, I contacted his office twice to discuss the results, but he didn't have the courtesy or professionalism to call me back. Fortunately, I found another doctor, who's terrific.
