Why Patients Come to Dr. Ancy V Ignatius
Many patients visit after months or even years of trying to understand symptoms that are often misdiagnosed.
- Jaw pain may be treated as a dental issue.
- Headaches may be mistaken for migraines.
- Ear pain may lead patients to ENT specialists.
- Facial pain may go unresolved for years.
Dr. Ancy specializes in identifying the connection between these symptoms and underlying TMJ dysfunction, bite issues, muscle disorders, or oral health concerns.
