I truly love the practice of medicine and strive to do my best for my patients. I take a team-based approach and work with my patients to find the best treatment plans and individualize care based on realistic desired goals. My purpose is to help you become a more functional and physically better version of yourself by minimizing pain and discomfort when possible. This is done through epidural, facet, sacroiliac, and joint injections as well as blocks, rhizotomies, and overseeing physical and occupational therapy among others. In my spare time, I love to spend time with my husband and three wild and crazy boys. Back in the day, I was an avid soccer player and enjoy the outdoors. My husband and I are also big foodies. Dr. Morales is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Sciatica. Her top areas of expertise are Scoliosis, Sciatica, Spinal Stenosis, and Cervical Spondylosis.

As an interventional spine specialist, I see patients with spine related problems, neck pain with/without associated arm symptoms, and back pain with/without associated leg symptoms. I perform spine related injections and other procedures with or without fluoroscopic guidance. I consider my patients as my teammates, and we work together to tackle the problems they have. My goal is to return them to better functioning and quality of life. I also work closely with excellent spine surgeons in our Spine Center for cases that fail to improve with conservative treatments. Dr. Guo is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Sciatica. His top areas of expertise are Sacroiliac Joint Disease, Sciatica, Scoliosis, and Invertebral Disc Disease.
