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.

Lufe saver (literally)!
In 2022, I was diagnosed with a large stage IV brain tumor. I was approved for an unusual substance to ingest right before surgery to help him see the tumor under a blacklight for removal (without harming surrounding brain tissue). He we had had a full resection (95 percent or more) and I had little to no damage to my surrounding brain tissue from surgery. Thanks to his careful surgery, I retained full function of my body and did not have to go through extensive rehab or PT. I am still here, 2 years later, and have had a very full 2 years thanks to him and his team.His PA'S were also all excellent. Exceptional surgeon, exceptional team. My husband and I are both STILL so thankful.

Salesman Surgeon
Acted like a car salesman selling me on having a laminectomy. Told me I would be able to walk out of the hospital and back to playing sports in six weeks. 4 months later I am still in bad pain that I didn’t have before the surgery. After another MRI and follow up with the chief surgeon, I will need another surgery to correct the problem caused by Dr. Price. He has pictures posted on the internet celebrating the number of surgeries he has done which explains why he is a salesman. I was just another number for him, another notch on his belt. He has no idea what he is doing, stay clear of this guy.

After experiencing a near crippling relapse of a chronic back problem, Dr. Price expedited surgery for me and ten weeks later I am virtually pain free. He and his follow-up staff were totally professional and available. I would heartily recommend Dr. Price for anyone with serious back problems.

I like Dr Price. He is straight forward and tells it like it is. I would have liked to have had a follow up X-ray. My last set of X-rays were on Feb 7th.

Dr. Price and all of the staff were very professional and very caring. Everyone listened to my concerns. Most beneficial was the fact that Dr. Price was able to look at me and see that even though there is a serious problem with my spine, my real issue with pain is in my hips and he was able to refer me to a hip specialists. He still wants to follow up with me later and make sure all is well. It's very beneficial because he was able to cut to the chase in one visit, when I have wasted a lot of time in the last year with other doctors and physical therapists who did not help me isolate this down. I'm very grateful for my visit with Dr. Price. I highly recommend this facility as well as Dr. Price as a spine specialist.
