Organized and friendly. Saw the doctor in a reasonable length of time. Dr Lingenfelter is worth waiting for if he happens to get backed up.

This was my first appointment meeting Dr. Lingenfelter about disc problem in my neck. I found him to be friendly and caring. He thoroughly explained to my wife and I what the MRI showed and the possible surgery procedure depending on what the CT Scan shows. He took the time to answer all our questions. It was a nice and informative appointment with him and his office manager Christa.

Dr. Kenneth Lingenfelter did my L3 and L5 surgery in one day. Great communication and great care. So far, I’m only feeling the expected post-surgery pain. I’m very grateful for his excellent service and professionalism.

He takes the time to listen, review scans, explain conditions and recommendations without judgment.
