Thought it was the end of the world for me. I remember a couple days later, I open my eyes and Dr. Tate fixed me right up! It was a little over a year ago too. Successfully, Woke up with my mom next to me, the sun was shining outside. January 06, 2020. Thank you Dr. Tate! <3

Dr. Tate was took the time to speak with me and even discuss a medication that hadn’t been working for me right before all the issues occurred that led me into his care. He follows up and has answered the questions I have had. They do so promptly and professionally, allowing me to not feel bothersome.

Dr. Tate is very professional and takes amazing care of his patients. Dr Tate has amazing team of nurses and residents that work as a team. Dr. Tate answers emails or call right away. He explained the procedure to us in easy medical terms. His surgical skills are perfect. I was fully confident when I was in the OR that I was in the BEST HANDS possible. He and his team checks up on his patients frequently to make sure everything is going well. Dr. Tate is best neurosurgeon and one of the kind.

Everyone was very nice and explained everything to me in English (not just doctor talk). I know how busy they were but they took the time with me to explain what was going on and to make sure I had every chance to ask all the questions I wanted to. Dr. Tate is a very caring doctor and makes sure you feel secure in all decisions made with your care.

Dr. Tate recently did surgery on me to put a shunt in my head. I would recommend him to anyone. He answers questions completely, is patient, and always professional. I have had a an easy recovery because of his fine ability. The surgery was just done a few weeks ago and I am basically healed without incident.. I am feeling like a new man and back to living my life like a normal person. Thank you Dr. Tate..

Dr Tate and staff are phenomenal. He is professional, skilled, honest, and very caring. Rare to find such a skill set in a nuerosurgeon. I highly recommend him for delicate surgeries. His staff is very organized and follow up is timely.
