Excellent in all facets of healthcare and patient care and outcomes. I highly recommend Dr. Getter
Dr Getter is awesome ! He has a great attitude and is very informative about the procedures performed. If you have a spine issue I would recommend getting his opinion before making a move. Made me feel very comfortable about upcoming surgery.
Dr Getter is so pleasant and professional!
He is a wonderful, caring surgeon. Highly recommend!
45 minutes behind schedule. 5 minute discussion in examining room. Left not really sure of what procedure would be done on my back. Did not discuss issue with hips or possible bursa sacs.
Great care & thorough information proved.
Great doctor and staff .
My first visit with Dr. Getter after he assumed my chart when his colleague relocated to another state after multiple surgical procedures on my neck. Dr. Getter is personable, caring, and an exceptional communicator. I am grateful to have him as my new spine surgeon.
Very professional and knowledgeable.
