He is very pleasant, explains everytShow morehing fully, took time to show and illustrate how my scoliosis affects my body and why. Listens, provides insights and reassurances, doesn't seem rushed or distracted, not impatient, answered all my questions, looks at you when speaking, (instead of making notes or staring at the monitor screen). Thank you, Dr. Castro!

I was extremely happy to get an appointment so quickly. The people in the registration desk were very friendly. Wait time to see the doctor was a little long because he was looking at the exrays taken. He explained what was happenShow moreing but I needed an MRI to be certain & hoped insurance would approve quickly. He said we would schedule the MRI & he would see me right after to discuss the next step. All employees were very happy to help & very friendly.

Dr. Castro was personable and professional in explaining his diagnosis as well as addressing alternative treatments. His office personnel were organized in gathering information and moving the appointment along including x-rays for the doctor to review prior to his recommendations for treatment.

Yancey O. • August 20, 2026

Very knowledgeable and professional

Denise D. • August 20, 2026

I had to reschedule my appointment I waited a month to get because when I showed up for my appointment I was told the doctor went on vacation. I had brought a disk of my recent MRI and they downloaded it into my chart for next time. When I showed up for the appointment I waited 45 minutes to get into see the doctor and watched as 3 people who came in after me went in before me. And I over heard the one person say their appointment was for 15 minutes after mine but he went in ahead of me. And once I got in to see the doctor, he seemed not to listen to the events i tried to explain to him that lead up to me coming to see him. He seemed more fixated on the previous appointment I had with him years ago. I was very diassapointed in my treatment from the office staff, nursing and doctor. Not very eager for my follow up.

Elizabeth O. • June 10, 2026

I have always found Dr. Castro, knowledgeable, friendly, accessible. He performed two procedures; one a laminectomy and spinal decompression hoping a less invasive surgery might do the trick. But a second surgery was necessary. Fusion of three vertebrae was successful. Happy to have him as my surgeon!
