Charles C Edwards's Online Review Report Card

Dr Charles Edwards is an outstanding doctor. Dr. Edwards has operated on me twice over the past 16 years and both times I was blown away by his ability to make me confident in the success of the outcome and at the same time come across with humility and kindness. I had a lumbar decompressions and fusion. Only overnight in hospital and then 4 months later I'm completely healed and walking 2 miles a day pain free. If I could I'd give him 10 stars.

He left me crippled after surgery

Dr Edwards did a l4 l5 fusion on my lower back 11 months ago and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Told me exactly what was the problem, how he was going to fix it. Got out of the hospital the next day and started my rehab ( which was only walking for the first couple of weeks). No physical therapy,no follow up visits after the first 30 day one. Just had to listen to my body and ease into everyday life and exercise. By the 3 month mark, I was working out at the Y, riding my Harley, walking my dog 4 miles a day. By 6 months, I was playing golf with no pain, hiking, mowing the grass and doing everything else with no sciatic nerve pain, no back pain at all! I have read all the horror stories from bad outcomes for spinal surgery, but Dr Edwards is the MAN! Told me I'd be doing great and he was absolutely right! For anyone who is considering back surgery, I highly recommend Dr Edwards!! By the way I am 71 years old.

Dr. Edwards was interested in seeing me as a whole person, rather than seeing me as someone in pain. He is an excellent listener and truly considered everything I had to say before making any recommendation. His work as a surgeon was stellar. I could not have felt more confident going into the procedure or more well cared for coming out of it.

I went to Dr Edwards with severe pain, numbness, tingling feeling in my neck and left shoulder and hand and debilitating migraines all due to two bulging discs in my neck. His demeanor puts you at ease right away. He was very clear as to what needed to be done and very reassuring that my issues would be resolved by having surgery. But what impressed me the most is that he's humble and wanted the best outcome for me. He prayed for my health and wellness! I had seen three other surgeons over a five year period and I did not feel confident that the surgery would be successful. When I woke up in recovery I had absolutely NO pain, numbness tingling and NO headache. My recovery has been phenomenal. I'm very grateful for Dr Edwards II.

The level of care I received was amazing

Dr. Edwards performed double level fusion and within 3 months I was back doing all of my activities pain free. This includes vigorous hiking, biking, golfing, and gym activities. Very attentive and caring to my concerns and needs. I selected Dr. Edwards after consulting with 6 spine surgeons. After my consult with Dr. Edwards my mind was made up. I made the right choice.

Dr. Charles Edwards 11 did surgery on my right side of my back L3-5 Infusion Decompression i was having cramps in my right leg and back pain it was so bad i could not stand or sleep now i am pain free Dr Edwards 11 explain everything to my son's and answered our questions and befor i was taking back for surgery he asked was it ok to pray. And the day he released me he explained everything. I can do and if i need him come back. And prayed for me and i hugged him. Dr.Edwards 11 thanks for everything you've done for me. and your team at Mercy Spine Center. May God continue to bless you.

Dr. Edwards II did lumbar decompression surgery and the pain disappeared almost immediately. Now two weeks later I am pain free other than minor pain from the incision.

When no one else could seem to figure out the answer to my back issues he did. He performed simple back surgery and after years of pain I am so much better today because of him. He prayed with and for me before surgery, he is amazing, kind and humble.
