Caleb Behrend, M.D.

Dr Behrend is an amazing Dr, and truly cares about his patients.

Great surgeon!

Upon meeting, Dr. Behrend shook my hand and introduced himself. Most doctors don't even introduce themselves because they just want to get you in and out. Dr Behrend was different! He was patient when listening to my concerns and made me feel confident in my treatment plan. It is hard to find a doctor that cares as much as him.

Great surgeon!

Dr. Behrend is very nice, empathetic and you can tell he is listening to everything you tell him. He almost makes having an issue worth it :)

Professional, knowledgeable and caring.

Dr. Behrend continues to provide excellent top notch care! He has been a God Send to me!

Caleb has been direct and fully truthful thru this process - much appreciated. He has provided options I have passed on to this point but will likely accept if my condition returns at the level I epxerienced recently.

Perfect from start to finish. I’m very greatful for Dr Behrend’s skill and care.

Excellent Dr!

For the first time in years I'm feeling optimistic regarding reducing or eliminating my chronic neck and lower back pain. I appreciate Dr Behrend for having clear plans for pain management, and a positive attitude that say “I got this.”

Very, very professional….answers all questions

Wonderful Wonderful Doctor! Could not say enough positive things about this man!

Dr Behrend takes the time to answer questions and is thorough providing details.

He was very understanding and covered my needs effectively.

Dr. Behrend is kind and gave me confidence in every step of my treatment. He never makes me feel rushed during appointments and seems to have the same goal as I do - getting me back to being active.

Wonderful!

Highly recommend Dr Behrend. I had neck surgery and couldn’t be happier with my results. You know you are in good hands when you have a doctor who genuinely listens and cares.

Had been in serious pain for many years went to countless back DRs that just wanted to give me pills to cover up the pain. Finally found DR. Behrend he was willing to try surgery to actually fix the problem. I still have some pain but i have not taken pain pills since about a month after surgery. That was 4 months ago. Even my worst days don’t require a pain pill now.

Really seemed to care about getting back to a "normal" pain free state. He listened to me and my concerns about pain management.

Best Dr ever.

Dr Behr

Really knowledgeable and conservative with surgery recommendations.

So professional, does not hurry. Let's you ask as many questions as you want. LISTENS!!!!

I introduced myself and he didn’t do the same. Nor did he introduce the other man that came in.

He's calming and he's cautious. Thankful for his insight.

Waited for over an hour to be seen. He came in handed me my mri results and said he was referring me to a pain specialist. No, follow up or anything.

Very laid back physical.

I met him only one time or 2 times But u can tell that he is a good doctor and feel the pain os his patient and try to help him . Highly recommend

Great personality and easy to talk to. Made me feel very comfortable and insured I had all required information

Kind man.

Dr Behrend is the best caring knowable and does a great job taking care of his patience needs and concerns

Not just another Surgeon...he is a Scholar & a Gentleman, also!

He's good people. Knows what he's talking about and doesn't mess around. Can't ask for a better, more skilled specialist!

Dr's great but always running late.

Thank you doctor for everything

He is very kind and is no in a hurry . Honest and on time. I have recommended him with my gym friends.

Personable and anxious to help me get pain.

Dr Behrend is kind, caring, listens and takes your concerns seriously. I have seen him often and have never felt rushed.

He is the best doctor and compationate dr, I have ever had, he cares for the patent like very few do. God bless him.

Thank God for a doctor like Dr. Behrend!

Excellent

AMAZING AND COMPASSIONATE AND UNDERSTANDING, I CAN NOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD ABOUT DR BEHREND

What a great experience. It amazing what Dr Behrend was able to do. I had major pain in my neck and arm from a bolging disk for five months. He got me in for surgery very quickly and it completely healed within 9 monhts. Thank you Dr Behrend for all your hard work

God Bless Dr Behrend He has given me my life back with all he has done for me Love him

Simply the best! Love this guy, took care of me like family!

Compassionate, listens, is an extremely knowledgeable and skilled surgeon. I trust Dr. Behrend without question. Never feel rushed or dismissed. Very kind spirit.

Had an appointment with him today and he decided to give me to his assistant instead. That made me felt uncared for. I already saw her my last appointment. This appointment was supposed to be with him to go over scan results. I just feel like I’m being pushed under the rug here. I’m thinking of changing providers.

Dr. Behrend's is always worth the wait. He cares about his patients.

Sympathetic caring and easy to talk to

Could not ask for a better doctor

I can’t thank Dr Behrend enough for how he has helped me. Back pain is never an easy thing to deal with. He has given me hope, when I felt like I had none.

Dr Behrend is a very busy man. I trust him 100%! He will do whatever he can to help and be honest, kind, courteous on the path to getting us well!

He’s the best. Explains issues so I can understand

He’s a busy doctor but when it is your turn he listens and doesn’t rush you.

Felt very comfortable with him!!!

Very, very good bedside manners

Amazing Druyu56676

Highly recommend! He cares about his patients and is very compassionate. He is highly sought after but the wait is worth it!

Excellent doctor. Very methodical and professional. Easy to talk to and he really listens to you.

Very courteous and sincere, listened intently to my condition asking all the right questions for diagnosis.

I was a 1/2 an hour early for my appointment and the doctor made me wait an additional hour before being seen total one and a 1/2 hours to see the doctor who sat in the office and chatted with the practice manager. Also, I was told that they were cleaning the room and there was nothing to clean there was no tissue paper on the bed medical assistant put me in the room and close the door no measurements were taken

Dr Behrend is the best. Not only is he a great surgeon, he has a great bedside manner too.

Excellent experience I have full confidence in Dr. Behrend

Excellent clinical skills and thorough communications. Highly recommend!

Knowledgeable, professional, personable and straightforward. I felt comfortable and valued as a patient.

45 minutes late and the didn’t tell me until 40 minutes of waiting. Seemed not to explain things in laymen’s terms unless I asked him. Not terrible impressed.

Very good and careing doctor.

Guidance was thorough and expectations were clearly stated

Takes time, listen and discusses options. Thank you for everything.

Dr Behrend was very knowledgeable and his explanation of the procedure I need was clear and concise.

Dr. Behrend really listens to you before and after giving a diagnosis. I feel like he really cares about your well being. I appreciated his clarification when I didn't understand something all the way and did not make me feel any less for not having the same knowledge that he does. I also appreciated that he is in it for the long haul and not just temporarily fixing the problem. He is very personable, realistic, honest, and caring. I will use him time and again.

No idea how long I waited after I was put in the exam room, but it was close to 45 minutes. My time is important also.

I trust this doctor and that says a lot.

Caring, compassionate, knowledgeable, and highly recommended for spine surgery

I felt comfortable with Dr Behrend.. he gave me options and was pleasant

Excellent Doctor, great bedside manner. Spends time with you and values your input. Would recommend him to anybody that needs surgery.

Never goes over tests. so I can under-stand what is really with me

Dr. Behrend is one of the best.

The best of the best!

I like him because he listens and works to relieve your pain.

Friendly and helpful.

Very skilled and nice

He was kind and really listened to me.

He will make sure your as whole as possible. Great to have him as my Doctor.

My only problem was it was 1 1/2 hours past appointment time. Dr. was clear with diagnosis.

He is nice and a good Doctor . He is very good to talk and is willing to make sure that he check you out and is more than willing to help you.

He has a wonderful bedside manner and very compassionate and also a great doctor.

Dr Behrend was very nice and caring. I liked him.

Great Dr. He is very compassionate and did a excellent surgery on my lower spine. I highly recomend him.

Dr Behrend has been excellent through the entire process.

Generic and not a warm clinician Seemed somewhat indifferent

Great doctor!! Very caring Explains and listens well. Definitely recommend him!!

Dr. Behrend is thoughtful, kind and helpful! I’m wondering where he’s been all my life!

Didn't see Dr. The PA was Thorough

Excellent care. Listens snd hears everything I say and provides real and realistic answers. He genuinely cares.

Have seen him twice and will be having DLIF surgery with him. Wife just had MILD surgery with him. Really appreciate his calm, friendly and positive demeanor. Looks at alternatives before considering surgery. Feel very confident with him. All of his office staff is also excellent.

I have complete confidence in Dr. Behrend. Pleasant, straightforward and thorough. Probably will have a out-patient for him in the near future.

Excellent surgeon, needs to improve communication between staff and patient. Had a lot of trouble gaining information and getting responses. Very frustrating.

Best there is

Dr. Behrend took the time to listen to me.

Very informative and encouraging!

Dr Behrend always takes the time to listen to his patients and makes sure he answers all their questions. It never feels like I am being rushed in and out like some other doctors.

Loved the surgeon and staff… however their billing process is horrid and the Forced prepayment of whatever you have left on your deductible at that moment…. 2-3 weeks prior to surgery or your surgery tech will cancel surgery is causing your clients harm. Your billing department is not able to produce a bill or invoice to submit to insurance company so they decide what they will collect from your deductible without knowing where your bill will actually end up in the insurance line and causes other bills to be unpaid and yours to go in front of all others and then your client has to stay on top of your billing staff and the insurance company to find out when you are actually paid and how much of a refund your people need to return and then all the other bills can be paid once the refund is made. This is a mess and causes undo stress and work for your clients. Very sad!!!

Dr. Behrend is friendly and listens to your concerns. I understand my treatment plan and I would highly recommended!

Doctor Behrend was very patient in answering all questions that my wife and I had to ask. His answers were very thorough and in terms we could understand. We didn't feel rushed at any time and his knowledgeability put us at ease.

Excellent doctor and actually listens to you.

Dr. Behrend is a caring, attentive, and considerate doctor. He has always given me his undivided attention, while giving me his best advice concerning what I can do to further my recovery from surgery. A true professional!! ??

No referral doctor has called me and pain meds he has described have been ineffective.

I met with his P.A. Christina, and she was wonderful. She was informative, kind and professional. Great bedside manner! Looking forward to meeting Dr Behrend. Thank you Christina.

Never saw the doctor

Dr. Behrendis a patient's doctor in that he listens and answers questions. His demeanor is super friendly and just a pleasure to have him as my doctor. Plus, his surgical skills have benefitted me and I am healed.

Knowledgeable Kind and Understanding Efficient

I felt at ease and Dr. explained everything to me...

Thorough with testing and explanation. .

Very Professional. Great bedside manner!

I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Behrend and his office personnel from nurses to receptionist. I have had the very best care and assistance from each. Dr. Behrend went over every step and possible outcomes for my surgery and I want to say it has been pain free and I am feeling wonderful.

I am so pleased with this doctor and his professional and personal demeanor. He exudes warmth and compassion and seeks to alleviate any anxieties I may have. Completed a successful lumbar surgery and would not hesitate to recommend him

He is always so busy but still takes the time to talk to patients and fully explain everything he thinks might help

great doc

Dr. Behrend is the epitome of professionalism and caring. I appreciate everything he has done for me. Kudos!

The doctor was nice, but couldn't really do anything because he had the wrong Imaging. Waited six weeks for this appointment, then another two weeks before someone called me for Imaging. Now it will be another six weeks before I can get back to see the doctor.

Took the time to listen to my concerns and answered everything patiently and thoughtfully. We put a plan in place for me to move forward.

The best Ortho Spine Doctor in the world! In my book! This Doctor cares about people, his patients. I am blessed to have been able to be his patient.

I have heard nothing but amazing. I am so glad that he is doing my surgery as it has become extremely painful. Very thorough and answered all my questions and concerns. My surgery is coming up fast. I am counting down the days.

Explained procedures thoroughly and was very caring.

Worth the wait!

Dr Beherends was late to see us but it was not an issue. Once we got to see him, he is very caring and pays attention to my concerns

Dr. Behrend took a little extra time to make me feel comfortable before a big surgery which was coming up. I happen to be in California at the time that he had for me so they were able to do a TeleMed appointment and I really appreciated the extra care.

He was kind, smart explaining everything well. Felt at ease immediately

Awesome bedside manner. Put me at ease.

Great doctor

Excellent first visit

I’m so thankful to have been referred to Dr. Caleb Behrend. I feel like myself again after a successful multi-level spinal fusion. Excellent doctor, I highly recommend him!

Dr Behrend is the only Dr that has been able to take care of pain I’ve had for yrs. His office staff are friendly and helpful. I would very much so recommend Dr Behrend. He cares about relieving your pain. I’m very happy I found him. Thank you Dr. Behrend.

Only met him once on video call so can't really say much, but he was very nice and professional.

Tells it like it is. Gets to the point.

Great Doctor Who listens to you

Other doctors told that they can't do surgery for my mom's back but Dr Behrend did surgery with great result.

He looks you in the eye & listens. He really cares !

Dr. Behrend was very friendly and informative about my condition. I am looking forward to my next visit.

Professional and genuinely caring to me during both of my surgeries . the only bone surgeon I would consider

Very kind and explains things so you can understand and make decisions regarding treatment

Having 45 years in the Medical profession, I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the ugly of it. So, to say the least, I’m extremely critical of my own health care and that of my family. I trusted Dr Behrend the very first visit and am trusting him with my spine issues. I wholeheartedly offer a 5-star rating!

Dr. Behrend is the best!!

Gave me multiple options to surgery, as well as literature to help me understand and make up my mind. I did not feel rushed at all, and he handled my questions and concerns with thoughtful answers that helped me understand, not just my options, but also my condition and what to expect as my symptoms progressed.

I waited 2 hrs but I liked dr Berends and staff but wished I had more time with dr. I had to have an X-ray and fill out papers

Dr. Behrend has a very caring attitude. And with all of his schooling, I can only hope he knows what he is talking about. I felt very comfortable with him.

Back surgery from Dr. Behrend is fixing an 8 year problem. Very nice and informative as well.

One of the best Dr.'s that really understands his patients and understands their needs.

I have been going to Dr. Behrend fir several years. Excellent surgeon! I would recommend him to anyone.

So happy to have Dr. Behrend as my surgeon! I was terrified going into my surgery, but I have always felt that I was in the best care. Highly recommend!

LISTENED AND THEN GAVE ME THE FACTS WITHOUT A LOT OF MEDICAL TALK. GREAT DOCTOR.

Excellent bedside manner. Attentive.

Couldn’t have asked for a more professional and skilled physician. Takes the time YOU need and gives it to you in a way that is easily understood.

I had 4 surgery’s by a Nero doctor then someone told me to try Dr Behrend. He fused my L4 L5 area and I have never felt better I have no more back pain

Excellent diagnosis and repair. Cannot day enough about the pain I was experiencing prior to surgery and after. No comparison. Could barely walk with a stick, not able to bend over, barely able to squat down and get up. Now walking 5 miles per day 5 or 6 days a week, golf around 10 times in the last three months with almost no pain. Two Tylenol in the morning and on my way!

Always the best

Dr Behrend is the best spine Dr I have ever worked with. I have never experienced any other surgeon that has a true caring and understanding of the individual. I love the fact that he believes that surgery is the last resort as I have had a number of surgeries, never fun. I would highly recommend Dr Behrend for your needs. Jim B

Fantastic! Dr. Behrend is thorough and caring about all my spine issues.

Superb surgeon! My back was a mess at L3,4&5. Dr. Behrend fixed it. I’m nearly 82 years of age and back walking 2 miles a day. No pain. Thanks , Dr. Behrend.

Dr Behrend is truly a people person/doctor. I really do appreciate his understanding and how he explains everything so that I understand what’s going on in my visits with him.

waited in exam room for half hour after waiting in lobby for 15 minutes. Dr. Was very nice and knowledgeable when he finally arrived.

Dr. Behrend was very patient, explained everything to me and answered all my questions.

First time visit, very professional

He is remarkable!

So far good. The Doctor will be operating on me in September. I can do a more comprehensive review then.

Very attentive. seemed to be understanding and lessened the stress I had harbored about my issues.

The Staff here is very nice, helpful and supportive. Dr. Behrend has helped my my wife with her back issues and now mine. He is thoughtful, informative and careful with his diagnosis.

Dr. Behrend he is a very caring doctor, he listens to your concerns. He makes sure your healing.he makes me feel at ease. Makes sure I get what I need.

Liked him very much. Very good bed manners and personable.

Good man, and great staff. You know you’re in good hands.

Great communicator...easy to understand. Terrific "bedside manner!" Not trying to push surgery as first option.

Dr. Behrend is an excellent physician and surgeon. My only complaint is long waiting periods in the lobby and exam room.

Thank you!

At this point all he has done is talk to me. Ask again after he has done the required surgery!

Dr Behrend operated on my back in 2019, , he and his PA were very thorough in explaining the surgery, the out come, the after care. The genuinely care for the patient. Dr Behrend stopped by the hospital to check on me in the hospital the first night. First class care, I am planning a second surgery on a different area, and he is the first professional I went to.

Dr. Behrend was thorough and explained on what was going on with me. He answered all questions.

total listening and responding, showing me in detail MRI finds and giving solid advice and surgery options explained a doctor I would recommend totally

Listened to my concerns and gave me hope.

Dr started by explaining what caused my pain. What he could do to fix me. After my surgery the staff at the hospital was awesome. 6 weeks later i feel like am on my way to recovery.

I highly recommend Dr. Behrend!!

Dr. Behrend is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough and also very personable. I felt like he was truly concerned with helping resolve my back pain. He took the time to answer all my questions and didn't rush through everything to get to the next patient. Highly recommend.

Dr. Caleb Behrend is awesome!

He listened, he cared and he gave me hope!

He is an excellent Dr., I know he was busy today and a little behind his schedule but that did not prevent him being a understanding and effective professional Doctor with my needs. He is a great example in showing professionalism with humanity and civility. A big thanks and a example to me like I said before. Thanks Again

Dr. Behrend listened to my concerns and did a great job of explaining the surgery needed.

The office was very clean and all personnel were professional. Extra effort was taken to keep the area safe from the Corona virus

Caring, took time to listen to my concerns

Did a great job communicating options and offering treatement plan.

Truest cares about my health.

Best doctor I have ever seen

1) thorough assessment 2) discussed all treatment option & efficacy of such 3) Experienced 4) Can fully trust :)

Hopefully will get follow through

Dr Behrend makes me feel important. He is concerned about my condition and doesn't try sugar coating my diagnoses. I appreciate his honesty and telling it like it is attitude. Wanting me to get a second opinion, before having a major surgery, makes me realize how much I need to understand the whole picture (doing research and asking lots of questions).

Dr. Behrend takes all the time that is needed to adequately explain all options and procedures and answer any and all questions. He is very nice and I would highly recommend him!

Dr. Behrend explains the results of my MRI and provides the answers to the questions that I had.

This was our first meeting and it was by telemessaging. Dr Behrend was very professional and thorough.

Very pleased with consultation.

Dr. Behrend has provided reasonable and practical medical advice and my surgery went as he had predicted (very good).

He is a very compassionate doctor and always has a great rapport with me. He explains everything about what is going on with me and explaining it in a way that I can understand!!

Dr Behrend was very easy to talk to and answered all my questions.

Easy to talk with I like his methods.

Dr Behrend is knowledgeable, friendly and super Supportive. Made everything easy to understand and made a great plan with me. He’s awesome

Made me feel at ease and confident that my back pain will get better.

Seems attentive to your medical issues but doesn't take a hands on approach as might be warranted in certain instances. Personable

Dr. Behrend did back surgery on me, though the healing was rough, he was always upfront about potential complications, explained all proceedures before , always available to listen, and took time to answer all my questions. I have asked him to do further proceedures needed.

Always explains my issues to me so that I can understand what needs to be done. This surgery was more than I expected but he has helped me get through it with his kind manner

Dr. Behrend is very personal with my care. He is down to earth and honest. And not scary in explaining my procedure.

Competent and communicative.....plus, he's a surfer

I can’t express my

A compassionate, friendly, straight forward and knowledgeable physician. Mr. Behrend is patient and answered all my questions.

Met with PA/Lori and spoke with Dr. on the way out. He took time to ask me some questions and give some directions on what not/to do. Lori was helpful, cheerful and such a big smile!😊

Super virtual visit.

Dr. Behrend and his team have been amazing. I have had several other surgeons work on me in the past and none of them have provided me with the level of service and care I received from Dr. Behrend.

Dr. Bergen’s and Lori Troxel are the best.

The Dr is always top notch. The telemed was useless. I ended up having a phone conversation with Dr Behrend and will stick with that until I can come back into the office for a real appointment.

What can I say? Dr Behrend is a terrific human being as well as a skillful and compassionate doctor and surgeon. I HIGHLY recommend him.

Listened well

Dr. Behrend is dedicated to his patients and truly cares about the pain they are experiencing. He tries to get to the root cause of the pain so that you can enjoy your life. He doesn’t just give up on you after your surgery is done if you’re still going through pain or not healing well like some doctors tend to do. He really cares about you as a person and I feel like I really lucked out with him! He is the best and I would definitely recommend him!

Excellent, personal, he is Dr. that all you can say is WOW, he wow’s you. Greatly appreciated, I just hope everything comes back, nerves and muscles. (In time it will) 🤞🏼 More than a big Thanks. A BiG WOW.

virtual meeting (due to coronavirus issues) was not successful due to technical difficulties. I wasn't able to see Dr. Behrend, but spoke with his assistant, Laurie, who provided a thorough summary and course of action for next steps.

Thank You sooo very much for giving me my life back with no pain!! You are my Christmas A NGLE for sure!!😘 Ruth Ann

Dr. Behrend is not only thorough, but kind and makes you feel extremely comfortable.

Very personable and ensures you get knowledge about your diagnosis and treatment

A very compassionate, easy to talk to, an d knowledgeable physician. He is attenting and listening to my issues regarding my condition.

Seemed experienced and confident. I felt I didn't need to be there. Only a cursory examination and was concerned with my concerns

First time seeing this Dr it took 4 hours. It was 3 hrs to get into the back room and then another 45 min before the Dr came in. He was in there at most 10 min and we were out of there. The second time at a different location I waited 1 hr in the waiting room and another 45-50 min in the exam room. Again, the Dr was in there at most 5 min!! When people are in a tremendous amount of pain, this is a ridiculous amount of time to have to wait to get in to see a Dr! No complaints about the Dr himself

he is very kind and caring, and really seems to try to help you get better or find a way to improve

He listens. He understands the affects of pain. I really feel lucky to have found him. And I trust his recommendations. Excellent doctor.

I enjoyed meeting Dr. Behred. Truly belie e he has my health as a top priority

Excellent advise.

Professional, direct and to the point. He clearly explained/answered all my questions

Personable and proficient. My surgery was very successful.

Thanks you getting me so soon, and felt you were very professional and felt also that I was assured we can get to resolve of my neck and shoulder issues. Thanks Also thanks for your willing to share with my son, information with what is going on with the procedures, that is a Dr. as a intern right now. Thanks again

Dr. Behrend is patient, kind and skilled. He has a great "bedside manor", he actually takes a minute to listen which is a rare and highly sought quality in a doctor today.

Is knowledgeable and personable. I trust what he says

loved my first visit. Knew exactly what I needed to do

I like a doctor who talks to you not at you and doesn’t try to sell you on needless procedure. I will have my second spine surgery with Dr. Behrend

Nice and straight forward

Our 1st visit with Dr. Behrend. My husband saw him first, then I saw him next. We were both impressed with him. He is very knowledgeable and kind.

WAIT WAS VERY WORTHWHILE

Seems to be a very caring doctor.

Outstanding Doctor and surgeon

He is perpetually late or un available. I almost always end up seeing the PA

This was my first visit. Thought the wait time was long!

this doctor takes forever to see his patients. he has NO bedside manner. He has his PA do most of his work. He doesn't meet his patients until just before surgery,

Listened to me. Wants to find a solution.

My journey hasn't been an easy one. Dr Hartzler referred me and I am hopeful we will figure me out between the 2 of them.

Very thorough man

I have been to different doctors before and half the time they could not give me 100% of their time. A man was there assisting on a laptop like a "court reporter". This freed up Behrend to devote his attention to me. Thank you!

seems like a good Doctor. Very long wait at each appointment

Great surgeon! I would definitely highly recommend him.

great doctor

He's the best; so compassionate, sincere and a great surgeon. I would never go to anyone else.

He is a caring Doctor

Friendly and positive! Very thankful I was referred to Dr Behrend! He's understanding and listens to your concerns. This is hard to find in a big city. I'm very thankful!

He got right to the point and was still comforting. About what needs to be done for my back pain.

Took time to LISTEN to my concerns and explained the course of treatment.

Good visit...

A long wait, but a very good first visit. I felt like he was totally prepared and willing to answer all our questions.

If you need back surgery then you couldn't find better!

First visit for lower back surgery consult, friendly competent staff, clean and well resourced office, Excellant Doctor.

Dr. Behrend was very calm and exuded confidence. Both my husband and I feel less stressed about my upcoming surgery.

I am SOOO upset that I was passed on to his PA today, instead of him. After spending nearly a week in bed in excruciating pain and unable to walk, it would have been nice to have spoken to him. His PA was nice, but after what I went through which was THE MOST HORRID PAIN IMAGINABLE, I expected and deserved to see him. Only after speaking to the PA for 40 min was I asked if I wanted to see Dr. Behrend... REALLY? Tell my story AGAIN?

Very professional but also listens and relates well.

I have never met a doctor who made me feel like he cared. He was terrific and my husband and I will recommend Dr. Behrend to others. They don’t come any better.

I love this doctor! He is so nice to talk with, he listens, and he is genuinely concerned! No one was able to help me, but him. Thank you!

Very kind, good to listen, good to explain. Definitely a good physician.

Very professional and listens to what the patient has to say.

Clearly communicates findings and gives the next recommendation for further treatments.

Was left waiting 1 1/2 hrs past appoint time...

Wait times are always over 1 1/2 in the lobby!

Got me back in flow. Very good with my neck problems .

Great doctor who is friendly, patient, professional, knowledgeable, and has excellent bedside manners. I highly recommend him!

He knew what to do I have confidence he will be of great help

Very personable demeanor

Wait times for this Doctor are always in excess of 90 minutes.

calmly listened to me and explained the next steps and what tests I will be need to determining why my leg hurts.

He took time to listen to me, answered my questions, and explained the choices I had and what to expect.

Dr Behrend, is an excellent surgeon. He has given me the best care and is so compassionate.

Great experience and I am so pleased with my results. I will be recommending Dr. Behrend

Real thoughtful and honest

I felt very comfortable with Dr Behrend. He has an easy going bed side manner. He explained the details of my back issues. I have a good understanding and feel so much better about my spine conditions.

Dr Berhend and his staff are wonderful! They take a real interest in their patients and the follow up care after my surgery has been great. I would highly recommend them!

he was nice, explained what he'd do and how, and gave me info to take home and discuss / look over with my family. :)

seemed caring and concerned

did not get to see him paid to see a specialist and instead got a PA

My wife and I were very impressed with the Doctors staff and presentation of information. Highly recommend

Hes very good

first time visiting this doctor. we were totally impressed with the doctor and all the staff. my husband (patient) didn't care for the long wait, but I explained there were many others before him!!

Professional and kind. Excellent surgeon!

Dr. Behrend is very professional and has done a great job on operating on my hip when I fell. He has provided excellent care and has made a great impact on my improvement when others thought I may not walk again. I am walking and getting better.

Dr. Behind has a really good bed side manned. He is really easy to talk to and seems very knowledgeable. My only negative comment is that I always have to wait a long time in the room before he comes but I know it's because he takes his time with pa

The best Doctor in this area!!

very approachable and easy to talk to. Interested in best approach to my health

Excellent doctor, great bedside manner, takes his time to make sure you understand.

As a new patient I arrived early to complete paperwork which I did before my schelduled appointment time. I waited 35 minutes before I was called back. I had other appointments later and notified the front desk staff. I received a weak appology.

I wish he had talked to me about prescribing Gapapentin for my irritation in my nerves. Can't take it. It causes memory loss

excellent surgeon

Relevant, trustworthy and kind!

Great doctor caring and skillful

Dr. Behrand took his time with me to make sure that all of my questions were answered.

Highly professional. Showed great patience.

Excellent bedside manner, and a “surgeon’s” surgeon. Recommended to me by another ortho surgeon who said if he needed neck surgery, this is the man he would trust. Dr. Behrand never rushed me, and always addresses my concerns.

he was very vague with my diagnoses, not everyone is familiar with back issues, he immediately referred me to have an MRI without really explaining my issue. I really didn't feel comfortable with him. I'll be getting a 2nd opinion.

Dr Behrend takes the time to listen to my concerns and hasn’t given up on finding the issue yet!

Dr listened and is hopefully going to fix my problem

DR Behrend relieved my back pain after trying other procedures that were a waste of time and money the surgery he preformed fixed my problem.

I don't feel he took time with me, just reffered me to someone else....

Very personable. Takes time to explain your problem and what the correct solutions might be

Timely, knowledgeable and kind. A winning combination!

Very knowledgeable, skilled, professional and a great surgeon!

Waited over an hour past my appt yimr

Professional, kind, thorough

Had a serious back operation, and he was great. Very nice man, as well. I've recommended him to several since my operation.

We had a 3 pm appt. we walked out without seeing any doctor at 4:45. We arrived at 2:30 as requested. This was appalling. The staff x-rayed my sons lower back and then realized the appt was for his neck and upper back so they had to redo the xrays. I

Wonderful staff

Dr very friendly and easy to talk to about my situation.

Great Doctor. They take time to make sure all of your questions are answered.

Nice doctor. Didn't really address why I was there. Wanted to focus on other medical problems being treated by other doctors. He did order further imaging tho so I'm relieved that he is looking further into the issue.

Had a great visit with Dr. Behrend this morning. He really explained my current situation and gave several options for remedy. One of my best visits with a doctor ever.

A perfectionist and grateful I was vectored his way.

Did not feel like he listened to my concerns. Waited over an hour past my appointment time to see him and he seemed rushed to move on to the next patient.

The best

Appreciate his thoroughness and looking at options before going strait to surger

Dr Berhend has taken excellent care of me and his follow up after my surgeries was terrific.

The best!!!! good job!!

Dr. Behrend is caring and looks at the whole picture of the patient. The only negative is I always have to wait at least an hour past my appointment time!

Very nice and thorough.

Never met him only his PA

I have been going to Dr. Behrend for a little over a year. He has performed surgery once and I am scheduled for another surgery shortly. I have complete confidence in him.

I feel Dr Berhend is really trying to help me with my back issue. He spends quality time when I come and I feel comfortable with what he tells me. His staff is also very helpful and always are so friendly. I’ve always had the best care at OrthoArizon

An exceptional surgeon with a staff that is both welcoming and professional

Awesomw so far i really think they can help me great job so far

He was kind and patient!!

Staff and Doctor very cordial. Exam included xrays with the intent to get insurance permission for MRI.

Dr Behrend is our fave. Exceptional surgeon, excellent doctor. Our situation has been atypical & complicated. He has been there to support & assist throughout the entire process. We are very grateful for him & his team!

I needed an emergency appointment and they were able to get me in and Dr. Behrend was super nice and showed he cared about my situation.

Excellant surgeon and very thorough. The problem I had is totally gone with no side effects.

Although we did have to wait for an hour past appointment time to be seen

He listened and looked at the full picture of my condition. I am impressed

Excellent bedside manner and very helpful to me.

Great Dr and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him...

Excellent, in every way. Really helped me

Feel confident with Dr Behrend

Dr. B. Has been very compassionate about my situation, he really listens to my concerns.

Very thorough, pleasant. Dr. Behrend answers all of my questions.

The most caring Doctor I have ever met. He is amazing!!

Dr. Behrend is a great doctor and I feel like he genuinely cares about my health. He's old fashioned and doesn't try to just throw you into some crazy or evasive treatment. I really appreciate his help with my back.

Wait time was terrible. We waited an hour to see the doctor. Then we waited an additional 45 minutes after seeing the doctor for the nurse to come back. We went to the desk and found out they forgot me. The Doctor was excellent.

Very kind and patient!

Didnt see the dr at my last check up appt. Only saw PA Lori. Would have been nice to talk to him since I am still having so much pain

Awesome!
