RICHARD A. STANGER's Online Review Report Card

I had two surgeries in three months related to an automobile accident. Procedure Jargon: Fusion C3-C5 and Fusion/TLIF L5/S1 Dr. Stanger and PA. Sara O'Neal are in my mind, "GOD SENT". I look forward to full recovery, pursuing my love for golf. Physical therapy and two more months of carefulness- post op and I'm off to play my best. If you are looking for a top facility and a team headed by the "GREAT" neurosurgeon, Dr. Richard Stanger, your pain and life happiness is in reach. Dr. Stanger's moral skill sets: Professional, educational, meticulous, preoperative tests to ensure success at time of surgery. He calms your mind, most of all his love for patients and love of practice is contagious. Take it from me, a patient and a son of two parents that also had success with skillfull hands. Good on you, Dr. Stanger!

Dr. Stanger gave me my life back. I fell and broke my back shattering the vertebra two years ago. Another surgeon, not with his practice performed a surgery that left me in excruciating pain for a year. I went to see Dr. Stanger, he did an MRI and C/T and told me the only option was for him to perform an extremely painful surgery to remove the original old hardware and place titanium vertebra and larger rods. He suggested I get a second opinion, which I did and the second doctor suggested the same surgery. I am 7 months post-op and I am almost pain-free. His bedside manner is amazing and he spends as much time as needed to explain anything he is doing.

Wonderful doctor, easy to talk with.

Dr. Stanger just completed anterior cervical decompression and fusion 4 levels C3 - C7 on my neck. The procedure went fine. No real pain; or trouble swallowing as expected. This is the second procedure Stanger has performed on me. No doubt about it, he is educated; trustworthy; detail oriented; and takes his time to maximize the procedure while minimizing surgery after effects for the patient. The Spine Hospital is second to none! Everyone is on the same page and have outstanding personalities.

Dr Stanger installed a spinal cord stimulater in my back. I went from a wheel chair to walking with a cane and the pain was reduced by about 70%. He was very professional

I’ve received the best care surgically I could have ever received . I honestly believe that the Lord led me to Dr Stanger . From the time we first met to the time he did my procedure he has been right there he and his staff always whisking cinwrn and care for his patients. Never before have I seen such professionalism. God has blessed him with a rare talent and he is using it wisely. Thank you Dr Syanger and staff

Dr. Stanger has incredible bedside manner and its evident he truly cares about his patients. He is very down to earth and easy to talk to and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend him!

Dr Stanger performed a surgical procedure called ACDF on me in Sept 2017 due to Spinal Stenosis. I had severe neck problems and he really helped me. I highly recommend Dr. Stanger as a Neurosurgeon to all my family and friends. He is very professional, listens well and answered all my questions in detail. He wants the best outcome for his patient's. Exceptional bedside manner. All his staff are all very professional and caring, as well. No need to go elsewhere. Awesome Doctor!!!

Received acdf surgery Friday and home walking around sat .he knows his stuff and I'm happy with the results. The pain is nothing compared to what it was everyday after work .I'm glad I had it done by a talented Dr and staff .very caring nurses checked on me constantly .

Wonderful bedside manners and did remarkable work on my broken back.

I had a spinal implant put in January of 2017,i may have had 40 days of use out of this device Dr. Stramger was a very great Dr. I had my procedure done here in baton rouge la.to this day I have I have not had a post op x-ray since my surgery January of 2017.The implant is a ST.JUDES Neurostimulator the battery gets hot and most of the time there is no connection to the unit which the St. Judes rep s are trying to blame Dr Stranger, how sad is that , mo help from anyone

Dr. Stanger has the best bed side manner ever. From the moment he walks into the room it is all about me and it doesn't matter how many questions I ask he has time to answer them. If my spouse is in the room with us and he has questions Dr. Stanger does not hesitate to answer him and make sure that we both understand. He performed my ACDF surgery in Nov. 16 and I have been almost pain free since. He and his staff are absolutely wonderful and treat you like family!

I felt all hope was lost. I have been battling the effects of a spinal injury since 2009. The chronic pain has put my entire life at a standstill. I am so blessed for my pain management doctor, Dr. Sandra Weitz, referring me to Dr. Stanger. His compassion is heart felt and his willingness to listen and come up with a plan of action WITH the patient has given me the courage to have hope again. If you are in need of a Neurosurgeon that will listen, take time with you and ultimately wants you to restore a full life, Dr. Stanger is your only choice!

He is smart, thoughtful and takes his time in the room- I understand why he might run behind in clinic because he spent all the time I needed to understand what I needed. He is an excellent surgeon and I am doing very well. Very pleased and would send anyone to him.

Dr Stanger is very personable and very patient. He went above and beyond to explain all the steps in my procedure I felt very comfortable throughout the entire process. Would give him 6 stars. Would highly recommend to anyone!!!

Dr. Stanger was so kind and helpful. I would highly recommend. He brilliantly revised a cervical fusion that had bothered me for years. I am pain free and loving life!!!

Very patient and always focused on my individual needs as a patient.

Took more than enough time to explain my condition.great bedside manner and me feel welcome,not a burden

Excellent min-invasive back surgeon. I highly recommend him!
