  I had first met Dr. Mitchell when my son of about 9 years old injured his knee in football game playing for his team. I knew he was a keeper for how he settled my son down and tenderly cared for him.
  
  My second time was when I went to see him for tendonitis, then tennis elbow due to my job. X Rays, then shots, I nearly ran, refused til I couldn't refuse them anymore for they hurt so badly. By the 3rd time I was begging him for more.
  
  He held up his hand and said no, there is something more here. He suggested nerve testing. Results showed mild case of both tendonitis and tennis elbow. He also noted other symtoms that he had talked over with my family physician and Dr. Nancy Frappier that concerned him and convinced them all that I should have their suspicions validated for Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue as I had for no reason fallen at work and I was losing my feelings in my toes and fingers. My strength in my wrist and elbows were weakening and I was tiring easily.
  
  It was he who suspected my diagnosis and sent me to have a Rheumatologist confirm I have Fibromyalgia Syndrome and Chronic Fatigue and a multitude of related symptoms.
  
  He was correct.
  
  Would I recommend him. Absolutely.
