I was not happy with Dr Morgan and his staff. My husband had a neck fusion (c3-c4 i believe). Dr…read morewent through the front of his neck, which is very normal. No one informed my husband that his throat would close up on him and he would be choking the first few days after surgery. Most doctors prescribe a steroid to take for that reason alone. Dr Morgan didn't prescribe steroids for him to take nor would he give any to my husband after I frantically called his office after hours. I ended up finding someone who gave me 3 prednisone pills (my mom) to get him through the hump. I couldn't bare to see him choking and not being able to breathe. My husband to this day says those steroid pills saved his life. Morgan's work is good, but clearly he doesn't know what it feels like to not be able to breathe and feel like you are dying. For that reason alone, I would find another doctor. My husbands eyes were bulging and he was gasping for breath when we got home. Do not put your loved one through this! It's unnecessary.

I was having back issues and made an appointment with Dr. Brent Morgan. When you arrive for your…read moreappointment you will be met by a medical assistant who takes your vitals. Then you will be interviewed by his Physician Assistant who asks you medical questions and does a quick exam. Then Dr. Morgan comes in to discuss your medical issue. I had CD's and reports from previous spine surgeries and the corresponding reports. Dr. Morgan advised I should get a Myelogram and CT scan to diagnose my problem. I was diagnosed with a Tethered Spinal Cord which needed to be repaired. I had the surgery and he repaired the Tethered Spinal Cord as well as removing the hardware in my Lumbar 4-5 fusion. The surgery was in June 2017. Three and one-half months have gone by and I am feeling great. Dr. Morgan and his entire staff are professional and very caring. If you need a highly educated and responsible spine surgeon he is the physician you should visit for your health issues.

I was armed with not one, but two MRIs from other doctors, ready to hear the dreaded "Let's schedule surgery" speech. Instead, I met with a genuine, down to earth, personable doctor that actually listened to all my complaints and I mean all of them lol. Not just "my back hurts," but also my entire medical history. 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!

He didn't care to read it, a secretary said he wasn't obligated to read the mri since he didn't order it and dropped me as a patient after expressing how awful everything was going for me in my life due to this. 15 mo post op c5c6 fusion.... one simple layer... i'll never understand, but i am willing to pay 10k to d13 w VAD because of the debilitating pain i have been suffering in since 35 yo til now 38 yo.... almost graduated NP school, and couldn't, just 3 semesters away.... life i worked so hard for, completely ruined.

- one star for staff up front that are crappy at their jobs. Sadly unless you're working with a…read moresmaller office and thus a much smaller group of patient specialists, you are going to run into really poorly ran offices and staff. I had to push them to get things handled properly but once that took place things seem to run more smoothly. Advocating for oneself is always harder when you're in pain so I totally can see why there are tons of 1 star reviews. Okay so moving on, as many seem to mention, the doctor I see is great here. I can tell he is no nonsense and to the point. I like that. His bedside manner isn't one that pads the ass of patients however I never found him abrasive. I have worked with neurologists for nearly 20yrs and I have seen good and bad ones. He is great. I miss my doc in SF who was the best honestly, but this doctor is for sure a great find and is skilled. Billing is a bit wonky here but I have found my way around that nonsense as I am versed in billing and coding so I stay on top of things. I can't really complain about their practices. They do what works for their office and if a patient understands policy and knows how to manage things on that end as well, it makes for a smooth process. Ask questions! Everyone wants to look to Dr Google for health related concerns but it seems nobody wants to ask for understanding on billing and coding lol. The info is out there. Do the leg work! Treatment - it's worked for me. There are options I have already explored elsewhere and I don't want to go back down that path here. I have a plan from my previous neuro and this one picked it up without any fight. His Pa is kind and compassionate and funny. What more can you ask for? Well maybe someone to answer the phone! But I ended up getting my doctors personal contact and bypassed all that nonsense. Tip: When you call, just leave a message with your name, dob, and number. They won't have it in your record without that information. They won't call back if it's not in your record. Trust me! Now that being said, don't expect them to call right back and lord knows if they do, it'll be from an unknown number or at the worst time possible (like when your kid has a blowout or meltdown and you are NOT getting that call, and that was your ONLY call back from them lol). Try to understand that a lager practice comes with bigger problems in the service department. This goes for anything but in the medical industry it is paramount. Don't want those issues? Go find yourself a practice with one or two doctors and a small group that manages that entire office. It's rare here but I'm sure it's out there. And yes, you may have to pay cash to see that doctor. I hope this review has helped you, I understand how debilitating pain can be and how hard it is when you feel like you're back is against the wall. Stay strong.
