Following months of cervical PT, I was experiencing weakness on my left side, tingling arms and legs, and weakening hand strength, dropping things daily. An MRI showed ligament calcification causing significant spinal cord compression. My orthopedist said I needed a spinal surgeon. I called Dr. Sanderson's office immediately, and although he had no openings, he stayed after hours to see me 2 days later. He answered all of my and my husband's questions thouroughly and with great compassion, explained the details, and listened... read more

I cannot recommend Dr. Sanderson highly enough. After being referred by another physician for back pain, I sought his expertise. Dr. Sanderson conducted a thorough examination and carefully reviewed all my previous test results. He promptly ruled out neurological issues and made a referral to orthopedic specialists who could take over my care. What truly set him apart was his personal touch—he called me at home that evening to ensure I had all the necessary information regarding the orthopedic referral. His attention to deta... read more
