I was experiencing pain in my right knee and I saw Dr. Achecar. He made me feel so comfortable and explained everything that was going on with my knee. Hands down one of the best doctors along with his welcoming staff! 10 out of 10 stars for sure and thank you Dr. Achecar I can start wearing my heels again lol.

Went in for my left knee being swollen and painful the same as my right one three years ago. Got an x-ray and a shot from Dr Achecar and it’s getting better already. Hopefully it will hold up. Great experience as usual from Resurgens and Dr A.
