Wouldn't let this guy touch my dog. Totally condescending not only to me but also to my husband. Wanted to walk out before visit was over. Most people I've talked to share the same opinion, even his 'friends'. He maybe a good surgeon but I'll never find out!!

Surgery was on time and all questions answered beforehand. Postop went very well. I am doing well at home. Thank you Dr. Brower and staff for being so kind, courteous and informative.

I recommend getting several opinions before having surgery. I wish I had known about Wadsworth Family Physical Therapy before my surgery. If they can’t fix you then I recommend Gabapentine for nerve pain and elavil for muscle issues. I didn’t realize that when you have neck surgery it could put additional pressure on joints above and below the joint you had fused, which could cause more pain after surgery than you had before the surgery. I just thank God for Wadsworth Family Physical Therapy. I have a life again.

I would recommend getting several recommendations from other surgeons as well before getting neck surgery. It should be last resort because it takes a year to heal and most importantly causes pressure on joins above and below the fusion so you can start having pain from those joints. You can be in worse shape than before the surgery. If I had to do it all over again I would have taken gabapentine for the pain I was having. I wish I had known all this before I had my surgery. That’s why I’m sharing

Dr Brower is one of the best doctors I’ve ever had! He fixed the mess that another “doctor” did and made it a thousand times better! I so should have gone to see him first!!

I went in with a simple herniated disc. I trusted Dr. Brower to do my surgery. Instead of fixing the problem, he crippled me for life. I now have to use a walker to get around. I pray you do not allow him to operate on you. He cut through my nerves and butchered me.

Highly recommend Dr Brower he is a great surgeon. He operated on me 2 times this year. Dr Brower performed a neck fusion first after that recovery he performed disc replacement in my lower back with fusions. Although I’m still recovering from that it has already been better than expected.

I fully trust Dr Brower. I doesn’t do surgery unless absolutely necessary. He has excellent bedside manner and communication skills, not to mention an excellent surgeon.

Dr Brower does not have the best bedside manner but he is a wonderful surgeon! He has operated on me twice for herniated discs and done an amazing job, where as most surgeons would have wanted to fuse me! I am totally confident in his judgement!!! Thank you, Dr Brower
