Very impressed. He is the third neurosurgeon I’ve been to And I finally found one that is honest and to the point about what I need to do. Yet he also seems very compassionate.

My surgery went perfect and I couldn't be more pleased. Already doing my normal exercises again.

Dr. Oppenlander is all about educating the patient. He explains the diagnosis and although complex, explains so it's understandable. He then explains alternative treatments and the benefits as well as the downsides. In other words, he doesn't make the final decision but gives you enough information to make an intelligent decision thats appropriate for your condition and your lifestyle. I have never met a physician who is as conscientious as Dr. Oppenlander.

It’s nice to have a doctor you can believe in the opinions and advice on how to move forward. A delight to deal with.
