Dr. Malalis takes her time to listen and analyze your pain and where it may be coming from. She is very thorough and truthful in her explanations of treatments and her skill in performing any kind of corticosteroid or epidural is top-notch! I have had other doctors in this same field who did shots but did not explain the main reason for the shots, in the beginning, is to diagnose exactly where your pain is coming from. I have had 4 different shots and with each one she is gentle, inducing very little pain on my end. I will not go anywhere else for this treatment, she is the best!

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
