Patient Reviews
Feb 16, 2023
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Uppal since 1992. He took me on as a patient when another Doctor had been doing nothing for me for several years for. Dr. Uppal is definitely the best, and I can’t imagine allowing anyone else to perform spinal surgery on me. Not only is he a good surgeon, but he’s warm human being, and truly listens. I have to say that his nurse, Jeanette, is wonderful as well. She keeps things going, and I’m sure she is an asset to Dr. Uppal as well as his patients. I know she has always been. I know that I’ve had some long wait times and I see that other people/patients are saying something about it. Isn’t the best worth waiting for?
