The Doctor gave me time to speak and say what was the diagnosis was. Also, he gave me time to say what the symptoms was. So he gave me the right medicine to cure the allergies. I'm glad to say it is at least 99 percent working. The goal is for the nostrils area to get a clear.

I have expressed issues regarding back pain since October and Dr. Joseph finally ordered X-Rays to be followed up by contact sometime in the future from a back specialist. He still hasn't addressed the pain I have in my groin area. I am concerned that I can't get an answer regarding what the problem is or isn't.
