Very thorough
I appreciate how Dr. Long takes her time to listen and takes her time to give a great response. She has really helped throughout my whole injury.
Third visit in this clinic due to cervical spine issues. Waiting time ranges between an hour an to an hour and a half. When I already saw her, she seems to be very rushed and the exams were very basic. She recommended a surgery and sounds very pessimistic and after having a second opinion of discovered that a surgery is not the first option, and there are alternatives to be exhausted before. Other than that communicating with Clinic is a nightmare. Not through the online system and not through the phone. I was trying to get a referral and a CD disc with my x-ray and it took me a month to get this. Overall, far from ideal experience, I would look for other clinics.
Great illustration in educating me on my condition and surgery.
Need to show a little more compassion and take a little more time with patients who never gone through surgery.
Listen to your concerns, details your care and advocate for her team of fellow doctors. She's an excellent surgeon, walks you through step by step on her procedures.
Had a lumber fusion with a laminectomy June 18, 2026 and she did an excellent job I would refer any one I had gotten to the point where my legs would go numb with no warning sometimes I couldn’t even walk. But now I have none of those issues and I’m very happy. Thanks Dr. Long
Excellent physician. Very knowledgeable and takes time to explain my condition
Good doctor and professional
Dr. Long has preformed a couple different bacj surgeries on me and there's no one i trust more to operate on me. I may have to have another fusion and I've already consulted with her and she has given me options but have to wait for mri.
