Dr Donnel never even looked at my back. Guess the xray told him everything but still still a lot of soreness…
Dr. Tressler is top notch and listens actively to his patients. He offers the best course of action for me and ensures my treatment plan was well understood. He's not a check the box provider of care, he actually cares about each patient, individually.
Couldn't get no help from him
Punctual, courteous and professional
My appointment was with Dr Tresser. I waited 2 months to see him. I was seen by another doctor and told that if I wanted to see Dr Tresser I would have to wait 2-3 hours. When I made the appointment I specifically said I needed to see Dr Tresser and was told that was who the appointment was with. NOT HAPPY about being forced to see someone else!!!!!!!’
Sorry to say, yes wonderfull spine surgery, however would NOT ,in fact DENYED his error in a mishap during the surgery...where ANOTHER SURGERY had to be proformed days later. He also NEVER contacted me nor any of his TEAM...VERY UPSET, ..I AM NOT SAYING THAT HE DID POORLY WITH HIS SURGERY, it was a succesful, and my BACK is doing well...however, HE DENYED ANY WRONG DOING...I went in with a PERFECT COLON, came out with a cut, emergency surgery and a 7 day stay in the hospital...thats why the 3 stars...
Very informative information ...very right to point... great doctor
I had my right SI JOINT fused a couple weeks ago by Dr Tresser. It is wonderful not having pain every time I try to fix a meal which involves standing in one place for more than 10 minutes. I’m also able to walk through a large box store without having to rush home and lay down with an ice pack on my lower back. Dr Tresser is an excellent surgeon who was able to diagnose and repair my back problem.
Did not see him but his asst was excellent
I just had my first visit. Only time will tell after follow ups…
