I agree with "not golfer," I highly recommend Dr Daniel Spurrier. Also, Tri-County Ortho does not perform back surgeries; strictly othro surgeries. Side note: all the male docs at Tri-County are great and extremely competent. Dr Thomas is not! When you see her for an appt, she is more interested in telling you that she was the first black female ortho surgeon in the US than listening to the patient's. I went in for an eval for ortho and she told me I had no ortho issues (1st incorrect diagnosis) but I might have pancreatic cancer (2nd incorrect diagnosis)! My GI doc reviewed my films and could not believe she would suggest such a problem.
