Patton Chad's Online Review Report Card

I have visited with several doctors over the last 2 years and Dr. Patton is the only one who took time to explain my condition. He helped me understand the x-rays, the MRI, and he actually helped me understand why surgery may not help me. Most other doctors had quickly dismissed me but now I finally understand why surgery is not a great option for me.

Dr. Patton is a AWESOME doctor , a physician that shoots from the hip and you will be confident that he giving you true-full and accurate information. I highly recommend him and his staff…

It has been a year since my spine surgery (October 29, 2020) and I am I am more than happy to write that I am in better shape now than then. I was 78 years old, at a healthy weight, physically active and fit. But for at least a couple of years had chronic pain in my hip areas and 6-8 months before the surgery, it became constant and could not be controlled by over-the-counter medication. Searching for spine surgeons, highly recommended Dr. Patton was the first and last surgeon I saw ( I interviewed 3 surgeons) . I can’t recommend his work and staff highly enough for the care and competence I received, and I give special kudos to Sarah Hall for her help in explaining my condition to me as well as making sutures so perfect, you can barely see my 8+ inch scar. My 1-year check up was today, Nov. 15, 2021, and the x-ray showed a spine that was in perfect shape.

Dr. Patton is very caring and a talented surgeon. Everyone in his office is great! After my surgery (L4, L5, S1 spine fusion) my pain was completely gone! I am so thankful that I went to him and I highly recommend him and his team!

OUTSTANDING for complicated spinal surgery... laminectory and fusion of veterbrae L4,L5 and S1. When he found additional problems, he addressed them during this surgery .. no second surgeries for further repairs !!! Other doctors highly recommended him to me and I understand why.

After years of dealing with low back pain and getting little relief, I was referred to Dr. Patton. I appreciated his knowledge, conservative approach and desire to work with me to determine the best aporoach to meet my needs. I chose to have surgery and could not be happier with the results. Surgery during the pandemic added additional stressors. I am happy to state that my care pre- and post-op was excellent. Both Dr. Patton and his staff were readily available to me by phone and through MyChart. I am most pleased and highly recommend Dr. Patton and his team.

I am so grateful for Dr. Patton!! After five years of injections, PT, lifestyle limitations, etc. I turned to Dr. Patton for help. I appreciated his approach to surgery as the "last resort" and decided we it was time. Dr. Patton has mastered the team approach and has put together the most caring and comprehensive team I've ever experienced. From the moment "surgery" was mentioned I felt I was never alone on this journey. From Pre-op to three months post surgery, I was only a phone call or text away from help. Dr. Patton has given me so much hope and enthusiasm for what lies ahead! I'm only 3 months post surgery and there is already such a difference! I can not recommend Dr. Patton enough, his expertise as a surgeon, his care and attention to details, his approach to total well being and his warmth and approachability has convinced me to say...Go to Dr. Patton! You will thank him!!

I was in extreme pain before the surgery. No pain meds and cortisone injections were helping. I consulted with Dr Patton. He explained the procedure and I got the surgery scheduled a few weeks out but then the pain started to get worse. Dr Patton was kind enough to bring me in a week earlier than the scheduled date for the surgery. After the surgery, I woke up having no pain and didn’t even have to take zofran. I didn’t need any meds after 10 days and only needed a few physical therapy sessions. The entire staff from registration desk to the discharge staff was phenomenal. Dr Patton’s office follows up regularly to make sure the recovery is going well, and they are always quick to respond to questions. If you have any back pain, consider surgery. If you are considering surgery, call Dr Patton.

Dr. Patton, Sarah Hall, Kelli, Gretchen, Cindy the scheduler..and the entire team were amazing. I was in sooooo much pain and soooo nervous and they walked me through everything. They answered all of my calls, my chart questions and emails immediately and at all hours of the day. They dealt with insurance issues and my work short term disability for me so I did not have to, The day of surgery was soooo easy. The surgery center was beautiful and calm. I did not have to wait at all. They kept me and my husband up to date on everything. The surgery went smooth..no complications and I feel 1000 times better and I am just 2 days out of my back surgery!! I even got a call the day after surgery checking on me. The care and treatment I had was perfect. They made me feel like I was the most important patient they have ever had!

Dr Patton was great! I now have no pain. I highly recommend him.
