"The first visit was good but here is why I would never have Dr. Kimball ever do another surgery AGAIN. 1st surgery the implant was installed wrong! YES WRONG. Post-op & again 6 weeks later I said it was not working correctly. I had a x-ray which showed it was not right but the same as the surgery picture. So he said it moved, right blame anyone but be a MAN and say I screwed up, no it never moved was the same. Kimball did the 2nd surgery to implant the device correctly 4 months later.... yes 4 months later, placed it right but sent me home with a medication script that couldn’t be filled for 15 days, yes 15 count them 15 days after surgery. WTH he seems to not care about his practice or his patients. He doesn’t do any post-op care his PA Sean McGree does all the exams. Sean never does his job that he tells you he will do and it seems that these two so call medical care people never talk. Sean puts down notes but if there is a problem that he seams not to tell Kimball or the Kimball pl

I have had a variety concerns with both Dr. Kimball and his office from day one of my CarePoint experience. On the first appointment alone, I waited one hour to get into the waiting room and then another hour to finally see Dr. Kimball for 30 minutes. Moving forward he completely missed one phone appointment with me and then called me 6 hours late for another. On my last phone call, I asked him if we could get the surgery scheduled earlier and he said he would ask Christy and that she would let me know. That was over 2 weeks ago. I received no call. On that same call, he tried to describe my pain issues but was mostly wrong with his assessment. At this point I lost total confidence in him for this procedure. He recommended a 3-level fusion and said, "I'm not going to lie to you, this is going to be a very difficult surgery." Again, my confidence level in this man, was nil. I decided to get a second opinion. They recommended a Laminectomy and have already perfomed the surgery.

The insurance/billing staff stuck me with a $19K out-of-pocket bill for a piece of equipment that #1. failed within 2 months of purchase #2. I was not informed that it would cost me out of pocket and I was not given the opportunity to decline. Said equipment would have been declined if I had known that it was going to be OUT OF POCKET and not covered by my insurance.
I believe that I am a victim of "secret pricing" that often happen to those of us who are too trusting

What an amazing experience to actually find someone that truly cares and is willing to spend the time with you to explain all of the various options. Dr. Kimball holds the bar high, not only for himself but, for his entire team. I also appreciate the fact that Dr. Kimball is always on the cutting edge of technology and procedures!

He takes the time to listen to you about what is really bothering you. He makes sure you understand what treatments are available and what he thinks will be the best treatment option for you.

Dr. Kimball spent time with me to explain my MRI and procedure. He is very intelligent, has a broad knowledge in the neuro field, and his passion for neuro surgery shows!!!! I would trust him with any surgery. The one he did was on my cervical spine. It was a complete success. I would recommend him to anyone wanting a first class surgeon.

I have only met with Dr. Kimbal once, he was very easy to talk to and he was very good at explaining what my issue is with my back. He went over my results on the MRI and explained the procedure to alleviate the problem. I am pleased with him.

Dr. Kimball took time to review my MRI and to discuss options with me. I had several questions, which he took the time to answer.

This is my 6th surgery on my lower spine, Dr Kimball was the only surgeon in Colorado that would listen to me and what I was looking for. Spent 6 months after surgery wondering if I had made the right decision and I can tell you now that disc replacement was the exact correct choice, thank Dr Kimball for giving me my life back.

Dr. Kimball is an excellent neurosurgeon. My double cervical fusion was very difficult. It required extensive and delicate work to remove disc material behind 3 vertebrae that was crushing my spinal column. The operation went perfectly. Dr. Kimball patiently explained why he had to do fusions instead of installing artificial discs that he is a specialist in. I am so pleased that I am now scheduled to have Dr. KImball perform a double lumbar fusion in a few months.

Made me wait 2 hours in great deal of pain at "his Castle Rock clinic" before his staff uploaded my CT scan to "the cloud". He looked sleep deprived and yawned during the appointment. He should have prescribed TLSO bracing for my 45% spinal compression but failed. What he did however was write me a "prescription" for his father's food supplements - with a 10% discount on $159 for 30 day supply. However, he failed to disclose his related-party conflict of interest. My due diligence discovered it.

I went in to see Dr. Kimball a bit confused from previous visits I've had from other sources. I left my visit with Dr. Kimball with a very clear understanding of my condition and my options. Clarity is what I was seeking and it is what I found. I just want to say thank.

I honored the appointment and arrived on time and was left to sit in the exam room for an hour and ten minutes waiting for someone to come in. I was forced to leave without ever speaking to Dr. Kimball due to my personal schedule - but never heard from anyone in the office about rescheduling, let alone a call from Dr. Kimball personally to apologize for his lack of respect for my time. I do not recommend Dr. Kimball if for no other reason than a glaring lack of care for a patient.

Dr Kimball is incredibly knowledgable about his field of practice. He has done certain types of surgeries Keyhole surgery for example) that almost no one knows how to do successfully. He removed a tumor from the center of my wife's brain about 3 years ago that not that many years ago would have been considered totally inoperative. I would trust this incredible man implicitly with my own life if I had to.
