Jenny & Dr. Martinez were amazing! They listened carefully to my concerns, as well as provided me with options for my treatment. Dr. Martinez was thorough when explaining causes of my pain and the source. She made me feel comfortable during my visit and I could tell that she genuinely cared. This is the absolute best experience I've had in the Wellstar system. As a woman of color, I feel that my providers discounted my concerns and never took the time to help find a resolution to my medical concerns. Dr. Martinez went above and beyond to address my concerns and took additional steps to refer me to pain management for my spinal issues, as well us set up testing for my orthopedic issues. Wellstar is very fortunate to have Dr. Martinez on their team! Thank you Dr. Martinez! ??
