Default Compression Fracture Doctor

Can anyone offer information regarding doctors who treat compression fractures. I've heard such horror stories about doctors who treat backs and the poor results that occur. Any information would greatly appreciated.

How did it happen? What kind of doctors have you already seen? What medical imaging have you had. All I know is that if I ever need back surgery I will only look for a neurosurgeon.

My son had a seizure and fell Tao the floor while eating breakfast. He has had an MRI AND WAS diagnosed with two fractures.. I wouldn't use anyone not a neurosurgeon but the question is which one?

Dr. Daniel Spurrier, neurosurgeon, in the Sharon Morse Bldg. next to the hospital. VERY good! Has a better than good reputation here in T.V. Have heard from various folks horror stories of others but not him! I personally had disc surgery 2 1/2 years ago by him. He won't do surgery unless it's absolutely warranted.
