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.

Back Surgery
Dr. Schleicher helped me three years ago while he was with Regional Brain and Spine in Cape Girardeau, MO. When he met me, I was in such horrific pain and was unable to move my legs and was in the ER at Southeast Hospital. I was crying uncontrollable due to all the pain I was experiencing. He told me he could help me and asked me, if I wanted him to fix me. I immediately responded 'YES'. He performed back surgery on my back the next morning, and after surgery, I was able to move over into the hospital bed unassisted and was able to walk again. After three years, I still appreciate everything he did for me on that day. That was absolutely the most terrifying day of my life not knowing if I would ever be able to use my legs again.

Great experience all around. Very good doctor and PA. Nurses are also very good. Even have very professional receptionist. Dr Schleicher is the best. If you need surgery I highly recommend him. Pain was gone immediately after surgery. I did have surgery pain but not the awful hip and leg pain. He is very nice too.

I have been very pleased with Dr. Schleicher and his staff with my care including the pre-surgical appointments, the surgery and follow-up. He performed extensive surgery on my cervical spine with excellent results. Thank you to all including the hospital staff who provided my post-op care in the hospital.

Dr. Schleicher performed 2 different spinal surgeries on me in early 2021. I have had great outcomes from both. 1st, I want to praise the support staff at RBS. They made quick appointments for me. Everyone was courteous and helpful. Tyler and Jared answered all my many questions and explained the problems and solutions. When it became apparent I needed surgery, they quickly scheduled my pre-surgery tests, and then my actual surgical dates. 2nd, Dr. Schleicher did great. He has a good bedside manner, exudes confidence, says what has to be said. My results speak for his surgical ability. In the 5 weeks after the lower spinal surgery, I was able to hike 90+ miles, the month after that, 100+ miles. My pain level went from 9-10 down to barely 1, if that. I highly recommend Dr. Schleicher and the staff at RBS. My quality of life has greatly improved.

Very personable and thorough. Went over planned procedure explaining his diagnosis and explanation to opt for surgical intervention. Felt most relaxed and confident about his capabilities. I have NO regrets for surgical procedure, it resolved multiple issues with entire spine.

Dr. Schleicher made me feel so comfortable from the beginning. I was anxious about the procedure and he answered all my questions openly and honestly. He truly listened to me. He has a great bedside manner. Jared Lewis, PA was also extremely helpful and easy to talk to. Dr. Schleicher performed my surgery in January 2020. I am so glad I chose to have it done. I would highly recommend Dr. Schleicher and his staff.
