38 miles, 10,000 feet

I experienced pain shooting down my leg. It got to the point where I was having difficulty sleeping and was unable to ride my bike. I contacted Dr. Chami who called me at home that evening. He rearranged his schedule to see me the following morning. He performed a very thorough exam and took the time to clearly explain his diagnosis and lay out my options (including the option to forgo a medical procedure and pursue physical therapy). I elected to have a pain relief injection. The procedure was quick and relatively pain free. Within 3 days, I had virtually no discomfort (just as Dr. Chami had said). I was able to return to pretty intensive 40-50 mile cycling rides. 3 weeks after the treatment, I successful cycled up Haleakala (Maui's volcano) -the world's longest paved ascent - 38 miles, 10,000 feet. Thank you Dr. Chami!!!
