After
few weeks of moving to Toronto, everyone told me that I have to find a family
doctor for every time I’ m feeling sick or I have any medical issues and he can
refer me to a specialist when needed..
So
I managed to find Dr Chen, and after a visit to the clinic I had to fill the
usual documents and a list of my medical situation and if I have any pain or
any special conditions..
It
was very obvious that I highlight the top of my physical problems which is my
neck and shoulder pain caused from bulging discs, and I’ve been suffering for
years and the pain is only increasing..
Few
days later, I received a call from the clinic offering me a complementary
consultation with their Chiropractor, Dr Shafiei.. so I hesitated first if I
should go as I tried all type of treatments in Dubai and so many sessions with
physiotherapists, chiropractors and physicians with lots of medications and
anti inflammatory, and not to forget the crazy amount of money I paid without
any results.. but then I thought I have nothing to loose if I meet with the
Doctor and hear his point of view.
After
an hour with Dr Shafiei, I was impressed by his ability to listen and to
understand my situation and more importantly my frustration, and I decided to
give it a shot and try couple of sessions with him.. where we discussed the
different options and how he would like to mix different treatments together..
I
did so far 4 sessions, and the good news is that I’m finding slight improvement
especially the days when I do the session, and I know that after all these
years a miracle can’t happen overnight, but as far as there is some improvement
and comfort I’m happy, but I’m happy
more of meeting Dr Shafiei and see that there is still doctors who are humans
and they really care about their patients and do their best to make a
difference.
