back pain
I took my wife to see Dr Hendricks, not knowing this man he came threw the door and said i see you wife is my patient but your here. Very arragant and didn't explain anything after looking at my wife disk from the MRI. Dr said she needs major back surgery but wanted her to go see his daughter for injections and then come back to see him in 30 days and walked out, but wanted her to take more x-rays in his office but didnt use them its a money scam. I would not recommened this money scam Dr.

Known him since 1989 due to a back injury. And now 5 back surgerys later here 2023 he is so professional and explains everything in detail to you. A very caring and passionate Dr. I would not have anyone else to touch my back and they have all came out very successful. So I HIGHLY recommend Dr Hendricks

Although I've only met with Dr. Hendricks a couple of times concerning my vertebral compression fracture I've abstained in a three story fall or jump while escaping an apartment building fire ?? almost 2yrs ago. I was admitted to St.Johns Hospital for 3 days and 4 appts. thereafter?? that's all I'll say about that except what ever Insurance i had remaining they got paid. After my termination from a private FBO near Tul International who decided i were no longer needed while on light duty, with no job no insurance I've just been managing my pain the best i could i just excepted this could really be my life forever???????????? until i met dr.hendricks he gave me hope and I began to imagine life without limitation without so much pain can this be possible ? Yes i believe again yes i believe yes i believe in Dr. Hendricks

Wow sorry to read the reviews that say they had a bad experience. Dr Hendrick used to tell people to get involved and write the Congressmen and let them know Medicare needs to pay to have bone growth stimulators for the older people due to brittle bones. My Insurance covered it and if it didn't he said he would write the prescription to let me go buy it to be installed. He CARES a lot about doing the right thing. My Surgery was perfect. He doesn't believe in just cutting people up for no reason. He wants the best for you. I had another surgeon tell me they only expect 5 years of good after surgery. I have had 19 years so far. Dr Hendrick did the work. I say Thanks big time.

My wife had a pain in her lower back, upper pelvic area. We did a CT Scan and was told, it was a budge in her lower back, go get a shot in the back. So we did what he said to do. Pain didn't go away. We went back a second time, (drove from Stillwater) was told the same thing, budge in lower back is problem. You need to get another shot in the back. Pain didn't go away, it became worse. 3 Months after first visit, and spent over $3k. Went to get a CT Scan on pelvic and hip area. My wife had a 12cm Sarcoma on upper pelvic growing into the tail bone. We wasted all this time with a Dr. that didn't seem interested enough to listen to my wife, and do another scan on pelvic. I would give anything to get those wasted months back. Good Luck Paul Brown

After several months of my back hurting so bad that I was using a scooter to get around in the store, Dr. Hendricks was recommended to me. After our first visit, I knew he was the doctor to solve my problems with my back. He does have a no-nonsense approach (which I like and want to hear the truth). He performed the surgery on my back and within a day I was walking around and enjoying life again. I highly recommend Dr. Hendricks.

I saw Hendricks as a follow up to a car accident. As soon as he heard this he was rude and defensive. He stated he did not wish to be deposed, he'd lose money from his job, didn't get enough from Medicare even to see me. When asked about advice on the pain I was having he said he had nothing to recommend, wished me a good day & left. I feel sorry for this man, although he'll get more patients and earn more, he'll not successfully impact people and serve their needs as a compassionate provider.

Rude, unprofessional, negligent, and unethical! He I have a severe L5-S1 injury. He acted like it was nothing, did not explain my injury, sent me to get an injection with sedation with Dr. Volk, She didn't give me enough meds., felt it all! Later found out she is his daughter and new & inexperienced. When I told Him I was still in severe pain he cut off my meds and released me to go back to work. I have trouble even walking! The workman's comp adjusters must pay him well! Poor excuse of a Dr. !!

I came to Dr. Hendricks from another surgeon who said I was at MMI. Dr. Hendricks found my problem and healed me. He ran tests the other Dr. wouldn't even consider. that data provided the proof of my continued pain, led to two additional surgeries and ultimately a successful outcome. Dr. Hendricks is a great person as well as a non nonsense surgeon. I believe in him wholeheartedly and my family will forever be in his debt. Thank you sir!

Recommend Advil for my back pain even after my telling him it cause my ulcer to hurt. I'm still suffering with chronic back pain. I think he's a poor excuse for a doctor.
