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…
Dr. Tresser, is very professional, and caring doctor. He gets right to the point,to tell me what is wrong, and how he could help me. Yes, I would recommend Dr Tresser to family and friends.
Meant with his resident. Would have really liked to meet him as I am going to have him do a major surgery. He wanted a ct scan I got it scheduled for three days from today. I called to make an appointment and he’s booked for 3 months. I am in a great deal of pain my leg isn’t working well and I’m so unsteady on my feet I am going to fall if I don’t get my back fixed. Three months is too long to wait. I really would of liked to meet him
He explained everything clearly. It was a pleasure to meet him and make my decision to have surgery well thought out.
Doctor Tresser was unprepared and entered the appointment without reading the patient information package. His interaction with me was not typical for a medical professional. He displayed a disrespectful comments and it seemed as though he was completely detached.
I only saw his assistant but he was available to review my x-ray and his decision in my treatment plan going forward.
Yes
