- 4 facet steroid injections in lumbar spine for severe spondylitis successful. Dr Mora did a great job. Found him to be very efficient.
- Yes, Dr. Mora is a great physician! Of course, he is very knowledgeable and smart. Yet, Dr. Mora is one of the rare physicians who listens and makes you feel respected. He asked questions, clearly explained his accurate assessment and prescribed a positive plan to alleviate the symptoms. Dr. Mora was the first doctor I met who was both professional and empathetic. That combination alone made me feel better and optimistic. Then, and most importantly, Dr. Mora helped me address the cause of pain so I have a precise plan and referrals to treat the problems and get better. I recommend Dr. Mora without reservations.

- I am a Registered Nurse and can't say enough positive things about my experience with Dr. Mora. I took my 92-year-old Mother to him for a complaint of acute back pain not caused by a specific injury. He diagnosed a Lumbar Fracture. He treated her kindly, appropriately and with great respect. He is a wonderful Physician and a very nice person.
