Being from out of state, I was very fortunate to have Dr. Willis as my neurosurgeon. Not only is he a highly skilled and experienced neurosurgeon but, he listens to his patients and communicates effectively. Dr. Willis performed a complex lumbar spinal fusion surgical procedure in order to stabilize my spine. My procedure was 2 and 1/2 months ago and I am now walking two miles with minimal pain. My quality of life has improved significantly. At age 81, I am grateful I selected Dr. Willis to perform my much needed lumbar fusi... read more

I had back surgery with Dr. Willis 2 years ago. I had been in terrible pain for months trying epidural shots and even acupuncture. I had instant relief after the surgery and even with the lower 3 vertebrate fused, I can exercise and do almost everything as before. I am a big fan of Dr. Willis as you can imagine.

In 2009 Dr Willis performed my lower back Laminectomy for ‘Central Stenosis’ (arthritic material rubbing directly against the spinal chord), that could cause loss of bowel/bladder control. After surgery, he informed me that the cover of my spinal chord was inflamed & tore easily, so that the difficult repair of the cover/sheath required me to lay absolutely flat x10 days. He, or his staff member, visited daily to ensure my comfort & review my care chart. He’s professional, caring & qualified.

I am so thankful to have found Dr Willis. I had been to so many quacks! He leaves the decisions up to the patient. He showed me on my MRI and Xray what was going on and said it would be my decision as to when I would have spinal fusion. When I came back and said 'its time', I was scheduled. The procedure was completely explained to me and my husband. It became a major surgery (no fault of Dr Willis); however, I am walking and exercising again! Highly recommend him!

I called to the office of Dr. Byron to schedule appointment. They told me that I should fax them referral, insurance and MRI. I did it. Nobody called me after that. When I called back week later, they said "we don't accept your insurance". Which been surprise for me, because I found them in my directory and asked on initial call. Two weeks wasted. Please respect your patient’s time, please fix your process.

He preformed surgery on my dad and his bedside manner was excellent. You don't think about how important that is until you are waiting for hours about such important news.

Dr. Willis is very professional as is his staff. He was very friendly, showed concerned about my pain and explained every little detail to me. I told him I was going on vacation and he scheduled my surgery so I would be able to heal a bit and go on vacation. Every time I needed something his staff was right on top of it. My experience with him was exceptional. It has been a year now since my surgery and I am back to normal all healed and if I need anything just to call. A+
