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.

The best
I had my 1st surgery with Dr. Winters in 2008 In Frederick MD. He spent time getting to know me as a person along with going over my medical condition. Since I was unable to use him for my subsequent surgeries I have used his brother. I miss you as a person and as a medical doctor. I would highly recommend Dr. Winter to anyone who has back pain.

The Best Neurosurgeon
I’ve had 6 surgeries with Dr. Winters. If he wasn’t the best I wouldn’t keep going to him. He pulls no punches and tells you exactly what it is and what you can expect in laymen’s terms. He’s the best Neurosurgeon in Utah.

Dr. Winters is the most kind and conscientious surgeons I have ever dealt with. He has a fantastic bedside and a very skilled surgeon. I have had great results from my surgery. My pain level has went from the upper end of the pain scale to the bottom and often no pain. I have nothing but praise for him. I feel very fortunate to have been one of his patients!

Great doctor!
Dr. Winters is very professional. He wants to make sure you understand what he is telling you and answered any questions that I had. After surgery, which went great, he follows up to make sure all is good. I would recommend him very strongly!

Dr. Winters removed a large tumor from my husband's brain (meningioma). We have only the best to say about our experience. He was very informative, took time to answer all our questions, was compassionate, and his surgical skills were second to none. We would not hesitate to recommend him.

Campbell – Jan 07, 2022

I went with Dr. Winters because all the physical therapists I talked to that work with post-surgery patients said Winters' patients recovered the best. If that wasn't enough, when I was being wheeled back to the surgery room the anesthesiologist said, "You've got the right doctor. When my son needed surgery I sent him to Dr. Winters." The physical therapists and the other doctors in the hospital are in the best position to know who is best. He performed a discectomy for me and I couldn't be happier with my results and Dr. Winters' service.

Not only did Dr Winters (not one of his staff) call me with my MRI results, he called on Sunday, during a holiday weekend. I am beyond impressed, especially after having to wait almost a month for my previous MRI results from another providers office.
