Excellent surgeon and a top notch person
He is the best!
Pleasant, very knowledgeable, caring human being
I really enjoyed Dr small. I know his reputation from years ago. He answered all my questions suggested physical therapy. He also said he thought he had some samples for a new pain pill that's very expensive. That would really have helped as I get bad pain.
Caring, compassionate and excellent physician. Easy to communicate with and definitely glad I'm one of his patients. FOI Rocks!
The most in-depth assessment I’ve ever had. I didn’t feel rushed. He explained everything in great detail. More than impressed.
Dr.Small did my cervical spine surgery in 2019. I had excellent results. And he’s a very caring doctor. I have nothing but good things to say about Dr.Small.
Went into surgery totally prepared. Dr. Small was generous with his time and educated me well on the procedure.
If surgery could be a pleasant experience this was it. Dr. Small is so kind and patient. He is professional and thorough. I came the day of surgery confident, calm and and ready.
Excellent doctor, incredibly skilled, bedside manner 10 out of 10.
