Dr Mierke has now done two spinal fusions.. T10 to the pelvis in early 2025, and six weeks ago, he had to fuse the C2-C5 in my neck... In my opinion, he is absolutely one of the best around... He is patient, very kind, makes sure to explain thoroughly, I never feel rushed, excellent surgeon by far... His follow up care is just as superb... And I can't say enough about All his staff.. They all make me feel at ease, especially when I was not at my best... They go above and beyond to help, and I am so grateful!

Dr. Mierke was very professional. He took the time to explain to my mother and I the layman’s terms of the issues I’m facing. He then went over several treatment paths and gave me the pros and cons. He ended with his recommendations. All in all one of the best specialist I’ve seen to date!
