Patient Reviews
Aug 23, 2021
Dr. Armstrong did my spinal surgery to clean up the severe spinal stenosis which I was suffering severe pain. He was very thorough in explaining specifically how the surgery would be conducted. He explained that the surgery was necessary to relieve the stenosis in my spine. The decision for surgery was completely my decision. he has excellent bedside manner.
