I was greeted by very friendly staff. I filled out paperwork and was seen by a doctor immediately​. He was very thorough and answered all my questions and concerns. I have been going for almost 6 months and they have helped my neck and low back pain tremendously. Highly Recommended !!! Ask for Dr. Ali, He's the absolute best!!!

What is it?
Bursitis is the inflammation of the bursa—a fluid-filled space which surrounds a prominent bone. The sac that lies over the outside part of your thigh bone, where it joins the hip, can become inflamed, causing greater trochanteric bursitis. Those who have this condition may notice pain with movement, pressure over the area, stiffness in the joint, or a constant dull ache.
​
If your pain is minor, then resting the area, the application of ice, and taking an OTC anti-inflammatory drug like Advil to relieve the inflammation and pain could be all you need. If, however, you have received no relief from your pain after trying these conservative self-treatment therapies, it could be time to speak to an interventional pain doctor who will administer a trochanteric bursa injection. For most people, the pain of greater trochanteric bursitis can be significantly relieved following such an injection, with relief usually obtained within a week or two.
