Patient Reviews
Apr 21, 2023
Dr Lochhead has performed both of my spinal surgeries. He really cares about the welfare and proper healing of his patients, and does his upmost to make sure that his patients have their mobility back . His bedside manner is impeccable. I like the fact that my surgeries were explained in great detail, as well as expected recovery times and any possible complications . The post surgery care from Dr. Lochhead and his staff is so caring , and makes recovery so much easier to deal with. I love the fact that I can call with any questions about my recovery and will get prompt answers. Thank you so much Dr. Lochhead for making it possible for me to create my art again, and making it possible for me to walk again. You and your staff are a God send to me. Thank You.
