I have extremely high expectations for the care I receive from medical providers. The traits I look for when choosing and remaining with a provider include: excellence in their field, passionate about their work, confident, effective communicaton, and demonstrate empathy and respect for their patients. When I required a spinal fusion in 2021, I interviewed three surgeons. I decided on Dr. Schwender because he exceeded my expectations and I was confident that his surgical plan was the best choice. In follow-up appointments, I... read more

First visit with Dr. Schwender re: my cervical spine concern. Excellent visit with someone who puts you at ease the moment he enters the exam room. Explains everything so well, and solicits questions throughout the exam. I walked out of the exam room extremely well prepared to take on my present cervical spine problem. And, I have the right physician to guide me through the process!

I have been dealing with pain for the last 9 yrs and from one visit with Dr.Schwender he noticed something that nobody else has. There's a issue with my spinal cord fluid. I have not come across a doctor that I feel confident about in a long time until now.

His straight ahead analysis of the problem was greatly appreciated. His recommendations seemed honest, clear and not sugar coated. I'm so glad he was my second opinion. He quickly became my first choice. He really seemed so knowledgeable.

When my son needed help with a bad back more than a decade ago, I did a ton of research and talked to many surgeons and other professionals to find the best back surgeon in Minnesota. Dr. Schwender is that guy. He did a wonderful job on my son and now that I need help with my back, I knew where to turn. He is experienced, skilled, and articulate - clearly explaining everything to me - and I also appreciate his conservative approach. He and his team are first rate in every way. Thank you, Dr. Schwender!
