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.

Spine Surgery
I research several Doctors in the Sate that could best take care of my sever Lumbar condition. Dr. Mayr was on the top of the list that I felt would resolve my issues. At the first meeting we discussed my condition and the pro and cons of several option and came up the the best option. We scheduled surgery at that meeting. The morning of surgery he came in and discussed what he would be doing that day. After surgery he met with my wife to discuss the surgery. The next day he visited me in the hospital to check on me which was great.DR. Mayr and his Team have been great to work with.

He is always so attentive to anything I wish to share about my health, very positive, and reassuring. His attitude and outgoing nature are such positive attributes for any physician to have when meeting patients’ needs. I so appreciate having him as my doctor.

Dr Mayr is very personable and gets straight to the point! He said I needed surgery to fix my problem but did not want to do it immediately. Glad I chose him for my back issues!

Was referred to Dr Mayr by a previous patient of Dr Mayr's who was very pleased with the care that she received. Likewise, I felt confident with Dr Mayr's diagnosis and advice.

Neurosurgeon, Dr Matthew Mayr
I have been seeing Dr Mayr for about 10 yrs now. I had seen other doctors in this practice prior to him, but they retired. Dr Mayr has already performed one surgery on my back which was successful. I feel that he is an excellent surgeon. His bedside manner leaves a little to be desired, but the important thing is his skill & expertise.

Knowledge and experience with personality
After 4 different medical opinions and 3 surgical procedures over a course of 10 years Dr Mayr talked to me for 30 minutes and 2 months later I felt 20 years younger. He asked me about my family history for NPH and knew what to do from that point.

Wonderful Experience
This appointment centered around me finding out more about the surgery he would perform....as less invasive methods haven't worked. I typed out all my questions, brought my wife to the appointment so she could take good notes and listened to everything he had to say. The whole experience was great. All the staff, including Dr. Mayr, were friendly and helpful.
