Dr. Kidder did not say but maybe 10 words to me. Checked a few things and said make an appointment in 3 months. Do not waste your time! Scheduled me for an MRI and gave me a follow up appointment in 3 months. Are you kidding me? I am hurting now and need some treatment.

Review for Dr. Kidder

Dr. Wolf has given me my quality of life back! He & Tara,NP took the time to listen to my concerns at the consultation & reassured me preop & postop that I would be able to regain functioning without pain. I had 2 cervical disc replaced & am so happy with the results. I received a 2nd opinion prior...
