Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Top Notch Dr.
Dr. Scott was absolutely amazing as well as his staff. He took time to listen to me and discuss all my options and what the best plan would be. He made me feel safe and comforted going into the surgery which is hard since I have bad experiences before that landed me on my death bed. His professionalism and care are top notch as well as his nurse. I will forever use Dr. Scott for any neck or back needs going forward. I woke up pain free for the first time in months after my surgery and remained that way. I think he's a blessing and I will always recommend him to anyone seeking a professional who does amazing!

Dr.Scott made me feel at ease and helped me get my normal life back !!! I’ve recommended him to a couple people and he fixed ones back after yrs of pain and the others neck when no one else would touch her because she had cancer . He listened to her like she was a person where every other Dr just wanted to give her pain meds ! She is my sister and I thank him so much for fixing her neck and mine !!!! I have had 2 back surgery’s and don’t want anyone else to touch my back but Dr.Scott !

Awesome
I have lived in pain in my back for the last 6 years. I was clearly ln my way to a wheelchair and could do anything in steps. Start supper around 1pm to get it ready by 5pm because I had to take so many breaks. I had a fusion in L4, L5 and S1 15 yrs ago. Dr. Scott new what was going on right away. He ordered the required test to show insurance company what was needed. He placed 2 screws and a bone into tailbone area. Because after years of the fusion it wears on the above and below joints. I had immediate relief from so much pain my family could see the change in my face. I was ready to walk immediately after surgery. They wouldn't allow me to, but was able to the next day. He has changed my life I smile and laugh more and joke around. My old self is returning. I don't know how to thank him and his staff assigned to me, for what they have given me and my family back. A thank you isn't close to being enough, but thank you sincerely from my heart.

4wk follow up
Dr Scott did a Lumber fusion on me on Nov 21, 22. I had a follow up visit at his office to check my back and the healing process. I'm still early in the process of having this surgery done, so I can't comment on whether it worked or not. Dr. Scott is really nice and so is his staff.
