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.

Neck surgery for herniated disc
12 years ago I herniated my C6-7 disc causing a lot of constant pain and marked atrophy of my right triceps muscle. Dr. Deen looked at my MRI and said “I think this disc fragment is lateral enough I can remove it posteriorly.” I’m an anesthesiologist in practice for 25 years at the time and I had only seen that operation a handful of times. I asked “how often have you done that surgery?” “About 200 times”. Posteriorly meant on neck fusion and no hardware so I went with his suggestion. I woke pain-free, went home the next morning (could have gone home immediately) and 12 years later (knock on wood) still never a problem. Thank you Dr. Deen!!

Great Surgeon
13 years ago he gave me my life back. I had lumbar fusions with hardware. Everything has held up as well as can be expected. Now I’m looking down the barrel of 4 more fusions in my neck. I truly wish I had the resources to see him again.

I drove 650 miles one way for my visit with Dr Deen. He spent about 5 minutes with me and was literally rushing me out of his office while I was asking questions and voicing concerns. I had been dealing with him/Mayo over 4 months and still have no relief or treatment plan. Scheduling and communication is terrible. Dealing with them has been the worst dealings I have ever had with a medical provider. They leave you to your own devices. I'm sick to death knowing I let go this long.
