Patient Success Stories
Pain free for the first time…
“I just want to give you an update on my health. It's been almost six months since you gave me the epidural in my neck and two and a half months since the PRP injections in my back and arm. I'm very happy to tell you that I'm pain free for the first time in over a year! I did no lifting or exercise the month of December, started Tai chi and physical therapy exercises in January and two weeks ago started working out with very light weights. I'm optimistic that I'll continue to be pain free but if the pain(s) return, I'll schedule an appointment with you. I can't thank you enough for giving me my life back!”

Still going strong
"In 2013 I was battling a bad case of golfers elbow. I was lost after a few failed therapies and thought I was done doing physical labor and the things I love like mountain biking. After I found Alison Ganong and her practice we quickly settled on PRP Therapy. I was patient #1. A week afterwards I was pain free and as we approach 2025 I am still going strong with zero pain. I couldn't believe more in Alison and her practice of modern healing techniques.”

Compassionate and connected
“There is nothing to me more valuable than human touch. Chronic pain sucks and can be isolating. Sometimes just to be heard and validated can offer so much in the healing journey. The healing that happens being in the presence of humans that can stay present, be compassionate and flow within the confines of their profession is beyond just an injection or a medical procedure.
From our first encounter with Dr. Ganong and her assistant Staci, to the office staff at Truckee Surgery Center, as well as the incredible nurses who with their kindness and expertise helped to lay the foundation for the next step in my healing process. Thank You all for the compassion, professionalism and kindness you showed me today while receiving my lumbar injection. And for the smiles too!”

Very effective with knee tendonitis
“The treatments in both knees has been very effective. I have not had an acute episode of the chronic tendonitis since the injections 4 months. I cannot express my gratitude deeply enough for your treatments. Thank You! From a (minor) episode in one knee or the other about every two months to none at all is fantastic.”

Relief from chronic lower back pain
“I have been working with Dr. Ganong to resolve chronic lower back pain that resulted from a mountain bike crash back in early 2021. I sought treatment through my primary care network, consisting of many office visits and three outpatient procedures, without achieving results. Physical therapists were able to help with strengthening, but the pain was always present.
Dr. Ganong was able to accurately locate the source of my pain and perform diagnostic confirmation. In addition, her office worked with my insurance to cover portions of the treatment. I am excited to return to the same level of training and racing that I enjoyed before the injury. Most importantly, I am a much more patient parent when I'm not suffering from the ongoing soreness and nerve pain that has been plaguing me for most of my children’s lives.”
