I read through some of the praise given to Dr. Blake Pearson and feel that I must contribute to it. I had been suffering tremendously with neck pain for several weeks and had been referred to Dr. Pearson after physicians in my hoShow moremetown could not find the cause. Dr. Pearson was forthright in telling me that he had expected to see me in a wheelchair after he reviewed my "pictures". He would do surgery the next day he was in surgery, the following Monday. He even allowed me to call a relative while I was in his office and took time to speak to her about the seriousness of my condition. Can you believe that? We arrived at our motel on Sunday. Someone had called my home to try to learn at which motel I was staying. The number left was Alabama Neurological. The pre-approval had not come through, but Dr. Pearson was so dedicated to his patient, that he used another avenue. I learned later that he arranged with the hospital for an early surgery time, and changed his own schedule to accomodate my condition. I am humbled by Dr. Pearson's caring and his dedication to his profession and the patients whom he serves. Margaret T. Livingston

Excellent doctor. Explain in detail of my lumbar Spinal Stenosis symptom & step by step of TLIF surgical procedure on my L4-L5.
Very friendly staff! Love Dr. Pearson! Highly recommend.
Best spine surgeon in the southeast. Great bedside manner. If you’re reading this look no further you are in the right hands. Highly recommended.
Dr was kind, patient, and took time to explain my surgery. He is very knowledgeable and was familiar with my symptoms before I even explained my issues. I trust him to provide excellent care.
This was my 3rd surgery in 10 months. First 2 were performed by someone else with zero positive results. Came here for a 3rd opinion. Dr. Pearson was confident he could fix my problem and he did! He has my utmost thanks and praise.
Professional Service
Great
I'm very confident in Dr. Pearson ability and knowledge.
So thankful for Dr. Blake Pearson and his staff!!! Such a successful surgery that I feel like a new person!
Dr Pearson is very concerned about your health. He knows what he is doing with your spine.
Dr. Pearson and his staff were very nice and concerned about my needs. Each time I might had to call and ask a question I were able to get a very nice voice on the line to answer my question. Even in the office everyone were very helpful. Dr.Pearson is very nice answered all my questions about my surgery and about what I needed to do after surgery. I've been passing out his cards to family and friends.
Dr Pearson was super thorough, I appreciate how helpful all the staff are there. Elizabeth with scheduling is a superstar made sure all questions were answered and and everything for me was put at ease. Thank you to everyone there. Sabrina I appreciate everything you have done to get me in and scheduled. I will be able to provide for my family because of you.
Excellent care, and everyone in office were very courteous. My surgery went well and Dr Pearson was very connected to hospital after the surgery. He was much more attentive than Grandview Hospital and their in-house therapy Easy Street.
Dr Pearson performed a major back surgery on April 21st 2025. I was experiencing excruciating pain coming from my spine, nerve damage which caused the worse pain in my legs Ithat I could imagine.
Goals met. Able to walk and carry on with life
Very professional!!! Dr Pearson has preformed surgery on me twice with great results with number three in the very near future. He explains what he sees and the options you have very clearly. So glad that I was referred to his practice.
Dr. Pearson was very personable and explained all options to correct my condition.
I had a very good experience during my office visit. Dr Pearson and staff took time to explain what to expect before, during and after my upcoming procedure.
Staff willing to adjust schedule when necessary and time available. Peaceful atmosphere as well. Doctor explained all options and procedures. I must say it was a great visit and I am very pleased.
On time. Straight forward. Listens.
All good.
Very direct and to the point. Does not want to do unnecessary surgery. Very good surgeon. I appreciate those attributes.

Dr. Pearson had a good bedside manner. He took his time and carefully explained all my options to me. I appreciate his conservative approach to addressing my spine issues and putting the patient’s comfort and welfare first. He was compassionate and honest. I have full trust and confidence in him doing my surgery.
Dr. Pearson is a very good surgeon. He is straightforward with all questions and results concerning surgery. All the staff are great people, very helpful.
Dr. Pearson and his support team are excellent!!! From the moment you arrive until your departure from the office you feel comfortable that the care is exceptional. Dr. Pearson is an incredible surgeon and he also takes time to “fully” explain details of a proposed surgery . He guides you through the entire process and takes time to make sure you have a clear understanding. I trust Dr. Pearson completely and highly recommend him.
Dr. Pearson is a very caring and compassionate doctor, and a very skilled surgeon. I highly recommend him!
I was experiencing trigeminal pain he listened and he recommended surgery. The surgery went well and am finally pain free! I am so thankful and appreciative of his experience and expertise.
Dr. Pearson is the best - he’s patient, thorough and supportive. Having a surgeon with outstanding skills AND a caring bedside manner is exactly what you want and need during brain surgery. I’m very thankful he was my surgeon and will continue to recommend him to family and friends.
