Had surgery 3 years ago. Still have back some pain but on other side of back. Sciatica going down left leg and tingling toes. Says nothing can be done. Basically it is what it is. He had NO feelings or bed side manner. Always at least 30-45 minutes late for appt. Wis I could go see someone else or start over.

Doctor Tribus is a good surgeon, I will give him that. But, he has no time for you clinically. you are just an MRI image, your personal experiences mean little to him. your quality of life mean little to him. Once he fixes what he deems is the problem, good luck to you Sir, have a great possibly still pain filled life. We'll see ya, thanks for Playing!

I was diagnosed with adult onset scolioces and had 4 surgical procedures between 2010 & 2019. These included spinal straightening and fusion, alot of hardware and finally a procedure to allow me to stand up erect with that normal curvature on the lower spine. I highly recommend my doctor to everyone I know and even people I just meet. Dr. Cliff Tribus is a great surgeon, he put me at ease and he takes the time to answer any & all concerns or questions.

He fixed my husband better than any other surgeron. Did a very delicate surgery which gave my husband a better quality of life.

He was awesome. After 2 back surgeries I was bent at a 60 degree angle, in constant pain and using a walker at 64. I now stand straight With minimal pain. He’s always been very honest about my condition and I knew what to expect post surgery. He’s been kind and willing to spend the time to make sure I understand what to expect going forward. I have and will continue to recommend him to others having spinal issues.

My first meeting with doctor tribus was insulting, verbally abusing, and violating my personal space. He yelled so loud that I could not hear him even though I told him I had a hearing issue. He rapid fired me with questions that I did not have a chance to even answer. I would never recommend him to anyone.

Tribus told me I had spinal stenosis. Laminectomy performed; an "oops" during surgery left my right leg paralyzed for a few days; needed PT twice per week for 5 months to get my leg operating well enough so I could navigate a flight of stairs, drive a car, get into passenger side without having to manually lift my leg. At my recent checkup, Tribus' Fellow told me that I don't have spinal stenosis, that they don't do surgery for stenosis. So why was surgery performed on me????
