Write ReviewPatient Experience with Dr. Bethel
- Arlene
I went to Dr. Bethel several years ago, but I don't think I ever wrote a review about my experience with him. I had been having neck pain for several months. I had tried several medical treatments, but nothing worked. Then I read about PROLOTHERAPY. I had heard that Dr. Bethel was a proponent of that treatment. So I made an appointment with him. As I said this was several years ago. I went to him for a treatment. I had, probably, at least two treatments. After his treatment my pain was completely gone and has never returned. From my experience I highly recommend both Dr. Bethel and the treatment. There are no side effects, and Dr. Bethel is an incredibly kind and efficient doctor.
