"I was referred to Dr. Tasca by my GP. Having no idea what a physiatrist, First I went online to check his credentials, quite impressive, I took the advice of my GP and scheduled a consultation...that was 2015. He was kind and personable and took the time to explain my problems and developed a regimen to fit my specific problems. He also performs epidurals and peripheral joint injections with ultrasound and x-ray guidance--very lucky for me since I underwent an epidural last week and am pain free. Conveniently, he works with onsite physical/occupational therapists to set up a regimen suited to my needs. From my point of view, he should be rated a perfect10!"
