I brought my mother-in-law to see Dr. Spinks for worsening low back pain. He took time to review and teach, not just about the surgical treatments, but a comprehensive approach to my mother-in-law’s pain. I would strongly recommend Dr. Spinks, not just for surgical repair of back problems but for a thorough approach to management. My mother-in-law may still get surgery, but we are pursuing all options as part of workup, and feel secure that the approach is ideal, thanks to Dr. Spinks guidance.

As a retired professional nurse I have high expectations of the professionalism, skills, knowledge, care, and communications that occur when I am evaluated for a medical condition. The thoroughness of care I receive at each medical visit is excellent. Dr. Spinks listens completely and is very easy to talk with. He explores all beneficial options and his explanations are very clear. I highly recommend Dr. Spinks, he has exceeded my expectations!
