Testimonial of Jimmy Bonsignore:
"My name is Jimmy Bonsignore and I have been a patient of Doctor Chowdhury for almost a year now. He is the most dedicated doctor that I have yet to have the opportunity to have. My wife drives me 9 hours one way to see him because of his professionalism and dedication to the practice of medicine. He is understanding and very gentle. He listens to every detail and notes it. He responds to all my needs in the most efficient manner. I hope that I am able to continue seeing him for my Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy for a long time as he is a key player in my health care."
Sincerely,
Jimmy Bonsignore
Testimonial of Mark Souers:
"Since 1993, I like millions of other people was forced to live with severe back pain provoked by herniated discs in my lower back. I spent nine agonizing months in physical therapy that included heat, electrical stimulation, massage, ESI's, ultrasound, cold packs and aquatic therapy, only to find that all of this increased my pain score.
My injury was reviewed by three independent surgeons of which two of them would not chance surgery because of my heart condition. The other surgeon was willing to operate but gave me a 50% 50% chance that surgery may be successful or possibly make it worse.
I was told that I needed to learn to live with this pain and continue exercising and taking Daypro and Lortab. A friend of mine had numerous operations on his back (and still had uncompromising pain) recommend that I make an appointment with Dr. Chowdhury. I took my friends advice three years ago and I have remained in his care since then.
Dr. Chowdhury's understands debilitating pain and how it affects a person's family and professional life. He has kept my pain at a tolerable level, which has afforded me the opportunity to work and live a mostly normal lifestyle.
Epiduroscopies have proven to be most successful in my pain management treatment program. I have had several of them and received a high degree of pain relief for up to seven months. This is out patient surgery and I can return to work the following day. I had my last one three weeks ago and have not had a pain score above a "two" since the procedure.
Dr. Chowdhury and his staff have always treated me with genuine concern and a compassionate understanding for my physical condition. They make me feel like I am part of their family (not a number) and are always available when I need them.
If you are experiencing chronic pain, then please take my advice and make an appointment for a consultation with Dr. Chowdhury. I am pleased that I took the same advice from my friend!"
