    Dr Erica Thursz PA is very through & knowledgeable. For the first time in years I felt HEARD! Genuinely caring doctor and staff. Carefully helped make a plan to move forward with my PT plan. She ordered all new MRI add X-rays because my pain has increased. Punctual...receptive...and smart. Thank you so much for actually caring & not minimizing my pain.

    Thursz-Rivest goes beyond acceptable care. She knows precisely the recommendations necessary to improve and prevent reoccurring obstacles to my health. Something I near is personalized care and she provides that. She works with other providers when necessary for a coordinated approach of maintenance.
