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 .
Dr Robinson explained clearly what is the status of my spine problem. He was honest about what the surgery will not do at the moment and what it will do in the a different situation. He answered my questions about the disc replaceShow morement and how that will happen and put me at ease. I am glad to have consulted with Dr Robinson. His approach was confident, honest and straight forward. I am comfortable returning back to him if the need arises.

Productive meeting. Dr. Obviously had studied the disc from the MRI sent by the imaging center earlier in the day. He wanted to schedule surgery to clear bad obstruction to my Spinal canal to relieve pressure and obstruction.
Excellent care. I have had Cervical Surgery and getting prepared for Lumbar surgery. I would not go to any other group. Dr. Robinson and the entire staff are great.
The receptionist is extremely friendly, everyone was friendly and the wait time was good. Dr Robinson is very knowledgeable
Great bedside manor and explanation of disease process!
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.
Dr Robinson is the best. He has preformed several surgeries on me with great results. I have to recommend him to several friends.

As always staff and doctors are the best. Nice, caring and very attentive.
Great
Friendly staff, extremely helpful. Successful procedure and was informed on every step.
Dr. Robinson has always given me great service with my knack and back.
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 !!
Dr Robinson has treated myself and my family over the years. He is a wonderful surgeon and truly a great human being. I’m a nurse and patient of his and I will always recommend him to anyone anytime! He is the best at what he does!
Love this doctor and staff
Dr robinson is the best he went over my surgery, answered in questions and wasn't in a rush
All levels of staff were effective and caring
Dr. Robinson did an excellent job explaining the procedure he is performing on me. His staff were very helpful and professional as was Dr. Robinson. Very glad I was referred to them.
Staff was great! Dr. Robinson came into the room with his mind made up...epidurals. If that didn't work. A pain simulator implanted. Never read my paperwork....temporary paralysis and urinary incontinence and fecal incontinence. My husband brought it up and he seemed to be surprised. (Again didn't read my paperwork) He said maybe the epidural will help with that. I wasn't listen to, evaluated, or cared for!
