Patient Reviews
Mar 16, 2023
From my first consultation with Dr. Coats to the end of surgery, Dr. Coats is truly amazing. His bed side manner is not only professional but caring, compassionate and answers all concerns the patient might have. Wish I would have had this surgery 10 years ago as my surgery was very successful and I am able to walk without any pain in back or legs.
