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.

Fusion on L4 & L5, Most Excellent Doctor.

He’s ok. Not great. Preoccupied. Think there are better spine surgeons with more experience.

I had a negative experience. Dr. Chambers spent a short amount of time with me during appointments. He did not listen to my concerns and spoke very quickly making it difficult for me to understand. He also did not spend time to review my MRI and X-Ray images with me. I left still in pain, and without knowing what to do about it.

Dr. Chambers did my back surgery in 2015. I was in intolerable pain before the surgery. Four hours after the surgery I was walking the hallway of the hospital with no pain. Two years later I have not had any problems. Dr. Chambers was very professional, he answered all my questions before and after surgery. He is very personable and his follow-up was great.

Dr. Chambers basically said my back was good to go and can handle whatever is thrown at it. Well, I went for a second opinion and was properly diagnosed. I am now getting the injections and treatment that I need. He never spent more than a couple minutes in the room with me and didn't believe anything I had to say about the pain in my back. He also had very bad bedside manner and was very rude.
