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.

I have been a long time patient. He’s the only spine physician I trust and will go to. He has helped me throughout my worse back pain and with the upmost kindness and thoroughness. He really cares about his patients and is one of the best doctors I know.

Dr. Scott Roberts administered epidural spinal injections (2) and gave me a follow-up consult for surgery. I would recommend him to anybody/everybody who has back problems. He's very thorough and smart and I appreciate having a younger doctor with good sight and a sharp mind to help in the most difficult scenario of my life. Thank you Dr. Roberts!

Dr. Roberts was informative, thorough, patient, and empathetic. A knowledgeable professional that took his time with my initial visit. He made me feel comfortable with my diagnosis and treatment plan. Unfortunately I need to be treated but an otherwise overall excellent experience.

Dr. Roberts has not only treatment for back pain, but also my recent pain in the neck and shoulder. He takes the time with me and makes sure he covers all my questions and concerns. I would recommend him to anyone. Plus he had performed two injections in my lower back, which during the whole process he made sure I was as comfortable as possible. He also has a great team both in his office and at the surgical site.

Dr. Roberts was very caring and took as much time as I needed when helping diagnose and treat my injury. Even though it took multiple tries to get down to the root problem, he stuck with it and kept trying different things to get me relief

Dr. Roberts has been great over the past several years. The surgery center where I get my injections are wonderful! The only negative thing I have to say about the practice is it is very hard to get in to see Dr. Roberts when my back pain strikes.

Dr Roberts is an outstanding physician, always very attentive and very helpful. He listens well and he answers each question thoroughly. He is punctual and highly professional. It is a pleasure to have him as my "spine" doctor and you are very lucky to have him on your staff. I would recommend Dr. Scott Roberts to anyone who is experiencing back and/or spine problems.

I was suffering from Back - to Thigh - to Shin pain, especially during the night. The pain was severe enough that it woke me up every night. After Dr. Roberts reviewed my MRI, he suggested a cortisone injection to relieve the pain. After one shot, my pain was completely gone - it's now been almost 2 years without any pain. Dr. Roberts is very knowledgeable and very easy to converse with. I would certainly recommend Dr. Roberts to my Family and Friends. In my eyes, he's a grade A+ doctor!!!1
