I was armed with not one, but two MRIs from other doctors, ready to hear the dreaded "Let's schedule surgery" speech.

Dr. Desaloms already has my MRIs up on a giant screen ready to review my issues. This office clearly invests in top-notch technology, and it shows. Love his PA Stephanie (extra bonus points for having her in his back pocket!). He's not the kind of neurosurgeon who pushes surgery just because he can. I may need it someday, but right now he's focused on what's best for me. That kind of organic, patient-first approach is rare. The entire staff at Dallas Neurosurgical and Spine, from the front desk, tech, PA to billing -- were exceptional people who obviously enjoy (and love) their jobs!

I was very worried about the procedure and vital structures in the neck so I chose Dr Taub, because he has his fellowship in Neurosurgical orthopedics in addition to his Neurosurgery residency.

We felt so relieved after meeting him, we scheduled the surgery the same day. Four hour procedure went well with smooth recovery and I was back to work 2 weeks later.Dr.Taub, his MA, office manager and rest of the office staff were all caring and compassionate. I would highly recommend him for Neurosurgery

I brought in my MRI and with that Dr Krumerman believed that I wasn't totally fused from my first surgery. A myleogram CT was ordered and come to find out I wasn't totally fused hence my back pain and issues. I'm about 4 weeks post op with my surgery with Dr Krumerman who redid my fusion at L4-5 and fused L5-S1. I'm very happy with my results. No more sciatica! Pain is minimal with just the normal post op pain. All of Dr Krumerman's staff are very nice and helpful via email or phone. The front office staff are also very friendly. I'll drive an hour to see Dr Krumerman again!

Well this is NOT the case with Dr. Courtney. He is a regular nice guy who cares about his patients. He listens to you, teaches you by explaining everything that's going on with you.

They make you feet so comfortable and at home from the moment you arrive until you leave. Again, if you are struggling with back issues like I do (and have since 2010) this is the doctor you want to see. Dr. Courtney is the best!!

Explained the pain was 12 on scale of 10 and need some relief. Was assured that office would call back shortly. The call came the following day at 12 noon and was told I could not get a steroid shot nor pain medication before my appointment on Wednesday. I asked if I was supposed to endure the pain until Wednesday and the rude woman responded with "Let me finish" In her finish she did not ask about the pain nor suggest anything for it. If you want help with your back problems it will be when they get around to it. FYI, by late Thursday, the day of my call, I could not walk for the pain.

Apparently they have a new policy that isn't posted anywhere, nor is it in any written Practice Policy that I signed, that states that if you are 10 mins late, she can up and decide to reschedule your appointment. Even the office manager said it's a new policy and not in writing nor have they notified their patients of it yet. So after driving 45 mins on toll roads from Fort Worth to Plano, I fell victim to some random "policy" that I wasn't aware of because they don't notify their patients. Save yourself the hassle and don't book with Jessica. She likes to make up policies as goes.

I recently relocated from out of state and was overwhelmed about finding a new care provider and…read morehaving to get someone familiarized with the entirety of my health history. Many times, I've encountered physicians who quickly rotate through patients like an assembly line - so going in, I was skeptical with the assumption I'd just leave emotionally frustrated... something I was VERY wrong about. I would like to preface this review by stating I was a same day appointment and they took my urgency seriously. Upon entering, I was greeted by the receptionist Stephanie who was incredibly accommodating and patient. This was my first time establishing care and doing the paperwork without a parent or spouse to guide me, and she walked me through it every step of the way - even answering my over-abundance of questions, to ensure my concerns were put at ease. I understand many people would say "that's their job", but she went the extra mile and when most people would have gotten annoyed, she maintained her composure treated my case as something uniquely important (she didn't just follow a script). Next, I needed labs drawn by Natalie, to whom I explained it's something even the most skilled phlebotomist struggle with as my veins are impossible. For me, a simple blood draw usually requires 3 or 4 tries to get a good vein, and many times someone will blow it causing excessive bruising etc. Usually when I explain this to a nurse and tell where I have had good luck with veins they tell me they know what they're doing and not to worry (yet the story repeats). I think most take it personal as if I'm questioning their qualifications? In this case, when I explained the type of needle they typically have the best luck with and which arm works best, she didn't question or second guess me, but said "That's actually really helpful!" and proceeded to make sure I was comfortable. While we tried twice and weren't able to get a good vein, rather than continuing to poke around, she said she wanted to bring in someone else so it wouldn't be such a rough experience as I told her it makes me nauseous watching them wiggle around in there. I can't tell you how much I appreciated that. Next, I had my first appointment with the provider, Lillian. I literally cannot sing her praise enough. She walked in, and after introducing herself asked if she could tell me a bit about herself. Explaining her motivations in healthcare, what her experience and education was, and even sharing some difficult challenges she faced to explain why empathy is a key part of the relationship we'd build, it put me at ease to speak openly about the series of personal health difficulties I've been struggling to manage. At one point I said "I know this is going to sound stupid, but..." and she kindly stepped in and explained to me how her primary objective was to make sure her patients felt cared for - and that if she didn't have an answer, that she would work hard to connect me with the right people and assure we continued care until I felt resolved about a solution or came to an understanding about my concerns. While I know I definitely overstayed my welcome and took a lot of time, not once did she rush me. She was so professional, but also personable enough to relate to or empathize with the feeling of defeat I'd come in with. The following day, I needed to come back for another blood draw, and when I did, they had already compiled a list of referrals, placed medication refills I needed asap, and even wrote/highlighted some notes about how to tackle this a step at a time. Stephanie took my blood this time, gave me the resources to stay connected with the company, and wanted to make sure I knew the team was in it with me. Not to be dramatic, but I genuinely feel like I found "my people", and for the first time in a long time, I actually feel like just maybe... this could be the support I've been searching for over the last decade or two. Thank you for taking my concerns seriously, treating me with dignity, and for the outstanding customer service.
