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.

Knee replacement
Had a knee replacement June 2024, Dr. Springmeyer and staff have been so supportive thru the entire process. He has been my doctor for years, was really scared of having replacement and had been just getting steroid injections just to tolerate the pain for several years. Wish I would had just done it earlier. Thanks, Dr Springmeyer.

Misdiagnosed by Dr. Springmeyer
When I went to Dr. Springmeyer for lower back pain following a lifting injury at work, he told me there was nothing wrong with my back except muscle strain and muscle spasms. I asked for an MRI to be done because I was having pain and numbness radiating down my right leg and he refused to order an MRI. I went to another orthopedic specialist who ordered an MRI which showed severe spinal stenosis and herniated discs in my lumbosacral spine.

Dr. Springmeyer is not only a great surgeon, he's a great human being! I am 6 months post-op and back to my profession of teaching tennis. Having a knee replacement is not an easy thing, but Dr. Springmeyer and his staff took excellent care of me. Scary? Sure, but I was in good hands with Dr. Springmeyer. Highly recommend him!
