Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Helped me tremendously
She was extremely helpful in all aspects. Before, during and after surgery she was kind, caring and loving. She made me feel like everything would be okay and it was. Best thing I ever did was have the surgery and have her as my surgeon. Great follow up care and her staff is just as amazing! I recommend her 1000%!

I seen dr . McMorrow when she was in Florida. She is an eager person, nice and easy to talk to. She insisted that I had to have a fusion done. I gave in, I thought that i would have less pain and not be on medication for the pain. This was not the case.. I was very upset that she disappeared after my surgery because I needed her but she abandon me in a worse situation than before the surgery. So, my point is to be careful with this Dr!.

Her greeting was cold. Did not share with me the results found on MRI which she has infront of her before she said, "you are to old..." I did not feel that she wanted any team players. She was the authority and forget the patients thoughts and concerns. When she started with PT which I had already tried I knew we were going now where. I left the visit as I MUST be a member of the team.

Dr. McMorrow is a wonderful human being as well as a physician. She made me feel so at ease, I must say the thought of having surgery overwhelmed me. Her site was very informative. She's very honest with her patients and I like that about her. It is my pleasure to let others know she's one of the best surgeons I have encountered....

Dr. Christie McMorrow is the epitome of excellence in a medical professional. Even prior to my initial consultation, the meticulous preparation by her wonderful office staff made this the most stress-free process. Dr. McMorrow treats her patients with respect and dignity every step of the way. She listens carefully and provides the very best advice on how to bring you back to health. How do you thank the person who has you on the path to regain the quality of life that you had lost?
