He was incredibly caring and compassionate. He took the time to sit with me and thoroughly discuss my upcoming procedure, making sure I felt heard and informed. Unlike some doctors, he never made me feel rushed or like I was just another appointment.
Very exciting! Felt better the next day . There was pain surgery pain but grinding pain was gone.
Dr.Chris Cook is “Best in Show”!!
He is a very nice man and listens to my every concern. Even though my surgery had unexpected complications, he is addressing the issues that arised from it. He is very professional and knowledgeable so I feel at ease in his care.
Like him very much. Takes his time and answers all questions. Glad I chose him for my back.
Dr. Cook was personable and helpful. He seems to genuinely care and answered questions honestly about back surgery.
Dr. Cook is phenomenal! I’ve suffered with severe back pain for several years. It impacted my quality of life and emotional being. Then I met Dr. Cook. From my first visit, I could tell he was genuinely compassionate. For the first time, I felt heard. I felt hope. I believed him when he said he could help me when others said they couldn’t. I am now post op from back surgery and no longer in pain. I can walk and do activities that I haven’t in a long time. He didn’t just repair my back, but repaired my spirit!
Surgery and Dr. Cook were very precise in explaining procedures
Great Doctor. Listens to patient, and answers questions compassionately!
Good listener and cared about what I had to say.
