Getting an appointment took several months , but once there it was a great experience . Everyone was so pleasant in office . I was expecting to have to wait a while once we arrived but we were promptly seen even though we were a Show morelittle early . Dr Robinson was extremely patient with us and answered all questions and took the time to show us with demo model of a spine , what was actually going on and causing the problems I’m having . He was even kind enough to let me bother him with a final question after he had left us and moved on to another patient . I can’t say enough about the whole staff in the office . They all seem to be happy and enjoy their job and made sure we had all the info we needed to make plans for further care with Dr Robinson . There was even a former surgical patient waiting with us at one point who told us how wonderful he was and all that he had done to help her and just as she finished her story he walked by room and stopped to talk with her and gave her a big hug . When one is contemplating having surgery it is comforting to know that such a great bunch of caring support in the office and a caring surgeon are going to be available if and when you need them . For a surgeon can be excellent , but he needs a great support team behind him .

I was very satisfied with the visit. I was very nervous going into the visit not knowing what the diagnosis and treatment would be but Dr. Robinson was very reassuring that he could get me some relief and easy to talk to.

Ritchie M. • March 19, 2026

So very nice !! I’ve seen many doctors over the years and Dr Robinson came in, put chart away and listened to me. Gave me his full attention not listening and charting at same time cause he had already REVIEWED my chart and knew the plan coming in! So many make you feel like they only worried about charting. 100% GRADE A!! Thank you !!

Michael H. • March 12, 2026
