• This was my first time meeting with Dr. Balcom, my wife and daughter were also at this appointment and we all said the same thing. We all felt like we hit the jackpot getting this appointment and meeting him. Prior to my first appointment Dr. Balcom ordered several medical tests that I had done so during this meeting he had the results and we could discuss what he could try to do the relive some of my vascular problems and also what other symptoms I have that are not vascular. So I'm having a procedure done on [redacted]. Again me and my family are very excited .
