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.

I found Dr. Cannarsa to be very knowledgeable and patient. I never felt rushed during my appointments. Since undergoing my L4 kyphoplasty, I am feeling significantly better, although I am still in the process of recovery. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Cannarsa to others.

Dr. Cannarsa is very personable. All the questions we had he explained well and was very thorough. I had an overall great experience. After having my left chronic subdural hematoma surgery, I feel good. I've been able to move around and do things I couldn't before.

I came in very scared and Dr. Cannarsa was very calm which helped me wrap my head around my circumstances. He did excellent work with my craniectomy for tumor resection surgery. He has been very polite. In my follow ups he has answered all my questions thoroughly. I can’t recommend him enough.

Brain Surgery Specialist
My husband was rushed to the Physicians Regional Hospital because of swelling on the brain due to 'a mass.' Although my husband previously had both rectal and lung cancer, this news was a shock to us. Dr. Cannarsa came into the ICU and introduced himself. Since we didn't know Dr. Cannarsa from a hole in the wall, we did immediate research into his background. We were very pleased with what our research revealed. His demeanor was calm and professional, even when we inquired about possibly transferring to another hospital. We decided that Dr. Cannarsa would be our surgeon. He was young, very knowledgeable and up to date with all current medical procedures. Two days later, Dr. Cannarsa removed a cancerous mass from my husbands brain. He closely monitored my husband both in the hospital and when he was away from the hospital from his own home. The skill and care this Doctor has is outstanding! We cannot say enough good things about him!

Dr. Cannarsa approached me with a simplistic surgical approach and I thought it was going to be too simplistic. But I went forward with his opinion and couldn’t be more thrilled with the outcome.

From making the appointment to talking to everyone here at Apex I could tell everyone was very thorough. All the steps leading to my Kyphoplasty and even afterwards have been very thorough and great. After my surgery I appreciated getting the instructions of what to do and what not to do. Dr. Cannarsa has been wonderful. He is very patient, calm and has answered all my questions.

There couldn’t be a more appropriate name for this practice than Apex—I received the height of care from a wonderful team. Dr. Cannarsa relieved my pain through kyphoplasty—and I couldn’t be more pleased with the procedure and results. He and his staff are the epitome of professionalism.

From the time I started visiting Dr. Cannarsa he was very knowledgeable about the issue I was dealing with. I had two compression fractures. The kyphoplasty I underwent went very well. I would recommend him for any one that is dealing with any back pain or compression fractures . I never had any discomfort during or after my procedure.
