"Dr. Margherita is an excellent doctor! He has been instrumental in relieving my back, neck and shoulder pains and getting me back to the gym. His expertise helped pinpoint the cause of my pains, thereby helping to alleviate them. I would highly recommend him to anyone who suffers from pain and is unable to continue their daily and gym activities. I have used him several times now and have had great success every time! Highly, highly recommend!!!"
