About this business
After sustaining a major spinal cord injury in 2005 due to a bicycling accident that left me initially quadriplegic, I have personal experience as a patient in need. Through excellent surgery, rehabilitation and caring from others, I was able to resume my career as a spine surgeon and my meaningful goal to help improve the lives of my patients using my own experience and decades of knowledge in the spine surgery field.

I am great and my sciatica pain is gone after Dr. Scott Spann at the Westlake Orthopaedics Spine & Sports performed lower lumbar surgery. So much so that I broke my foot 6 months after back surgery and who did I turn to again. Dr Scott Spann and his team have done a great job on my back and foot I can’t say enough. I recommend this group to anyone.
Dr. Spann is an excellent surgeon. He spent time with me answering my questions in a detailed way that I could understand. My appointment did not feel rushed and the amount of time he spent was beyond anything I have experienced. He uses visual cues and analogies that make complex issues more understandable. Everyone on his surgical team was great and so was my experience. I would highly recommend Dr. Spann.
I saw Spann for back/leg pain (MRI: slipped L4 vertebra & stenosis) and he offered XLIF (fusion) as an indirect decompression. My experience of him did not provide the confidence needed to move forward, however, I did try a stem cell treatment to see if I could obtain some relief and it didn't. It was my overall experience that Spann doesn't listen to patients as he's too busy selling his services and as they say in Sales, 'if you telling, you aren't selling.' No sale here!
I have been seeing Dr. Spann for over a decade. I suffered from back pain for over 20 years. When I moved to Austin a friend of mine recommended Dr. Spann. He performed lumbar spine fusion in 2010 and I healed beautifully. Since then I have had cervical spine surgery and it also healed beautifully. He is a caring doctor and a wonderful surgeon.
I've been seeing Dr. Spann for over a decade, through two extensive back surgeries. He has always listened to my symptoms and needs, and done his best to improve my quality of life. He is responsive, and genuinely cares about improving my situation.
Results: successful 12-mo. check-up after minimally invasive lower lumbar fusion (three incisions, titanium rods and screws), the second fusion Dr. Spann & his crack team performed on me over the last 2 yrs. Prior to the surgery, I had extreme pain (unable to walk from sciatic pain, "recliner-ridden" for 4 wks). Dr. Spann provided options, straightforward analysis & reassurance. I expected top-notch diagnostic/surgical care, & got it. Up & walking without pain the day of surgery, brisk recovery (stick with the PT: ATI staff ... read more
My husband had surgery for Osteomylitis and diskitis which destroyed his disk. It was caused from an infection. Another Doctor performed the first surgery and it failed. The first Doctor told him to go home for complete bedrest for 2 to 4 months. After one we called our heart Doctor and he found us Dr Spann! Today it has bedn six weeks and my husband has been pain free and recovering from the long weeks of bed rest prescribed by first surgeon. If you are having pain in your back, shoulders and legs you need to schedule an ap... read more
I stopped seeing Dr. Spann because he doesn't listen to his patients. His office ordered unnecessary procedures - an IV was started on me because his office ordered it and it wasn't used for anything. I paid over $1000 for an EMG test in his office and haven't been able to get the records. They said they mailed them to me but they never arrived. The Westlake Hospital where he does outpatient procedures overcharged me approxamately $1500 and I'm working on getting my money back which is a major hassle. To top it all off the i... read more
