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.

He saved my life. I had horrible scoliosis and he performed the back surgery on me to correct it. I have never had any complications. I recommend him to anyway who is looking to have back surgery.

Dr. Hammerberg is an angel. Compassionate, gifted, dedicated. All the traits a doctor should have. He gave my daughter her life back and she's doing incredible after her spinal surgery. The staff made us feel right at home. Thank you!

Office staff was excellent. Appointment was easy to schedule, they were very helpful. Dr. Hammerberg either was too busy for us, or just was in a bad mood that day. Left both my wife and daughter in tears with his cold demeanor. Why are you even here! He barked at them before even saying hello. I guess he thought we were wasting his time. Well he won't have to worry about that ever again. Offered no help whatsoever. Complete waste of our time, but we didn't treat him like crap..
