When he is doing my injections he is very serious and precise. I appreciate him and all he has done for me. His goal is to help me keep moving and to be pain free. Before going to him and receiving the injections I could hardly move. Now I can move with more ease. I would highly recommend Dr. Foster to my friends and family.”
