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.

Office number goes directly to voicemail and then after a month after leaving message, a email says doctor is out of the country. Didn't offer anything else

If only I could go back and have chosen differently. He destroyed my live after a failed back surgery because I was misdiagnosed.

I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Budway. He was attentive, a wonderful surgeon, explained everything to me before, during, and afterwards. He let me know what to expect with my surgery and my recovery. I had surgery in 2014 and the recovery he told me to expect was what I experienced. I do not regret having the surgery and I would recommend Dr. Budway to anyone needing spine surgery.

Dr. Budway performed a micro discectomy on me at the end of 2009. It relieved me of 14 years of previous back pain! I have since recommended several friends & colleagues and I have to say that my life is so much better as a result of this surgery! Just one of those days where I was counting my blessings and thought it about time to publicly thank Dr. Budway! I'll never forget the day you told me, "you don't have to live with this. I can fix it"! Love a guy who has confidence! :)

I am very disappointed with the overall lack of communication and response times with this office and Dr. Budway. He was very nice in person when I was finally able to schedule a follow up appointment after a serious accident and hospital stay. However, the office seems to be disconnected from Dr. Budway and getting a call back is difficult. I feel as though they have taken no initiative or personal interest in me as a patient. I am recovering from a neck and spine injury.
