September 19, 2024SOUTH JORDAN HEALTH CENTERDr. Devon Nixon and his PA, Eric, were very thorough during the exam of my Ankles & Feet. The staff, who took many X-Rays of my feet, provided clear pictures. The Dr. & Eric used the X-Rays to point out various conditions that could be causing pain in my feet. Dr. Nixon suggested a procedure that might give me pain relief, by injecting a steroid into a specific joint in both of my feet. I'm very pleased with the care and information I received during my recent appointment regarding pain in my feet.
