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.

Great office
Had my mri approved and completed and back in the office within a week. Had a diagnosis and was sent to Dr. Cronen for an injection which made my pain go away 100%. Highly recommend.

This place requires an appointment to go over MRI results. That's fine but no one says that until after the MRI. Imagine being so hurt you can't get out of bed, and now I've got to wait another two weeks to even see what the next action can be to try to find relief. If two appointments are needed to have a MRI discussed, let's go ahead and make both of them ahead of time.

I love this Surgeon he fixed a surgery that wasn’t properly by another Dr. He took his time and explained everything to me and my family. Has excellent bedside manner and I definitely recommend him to anyone needing this type of expertise.

Excellent surgeon. Took time to review my mri with me. More importantly he did surgery on my back and took away the pain. I am back to work and wish I had the surgery sooner.

Absolutely Amazing!!! I went into Laser Spine barely walking because of a pinched nerve between L5-S1. After Dr. Blok performed my surgery I was back up walking with very minimal pain the next day. As the days past my recovery continued to improve and within 6 weeks I was back to installing carpet. That’s been 3 years ago and I’m still doing great!! I want to give a shot out to Robert Blok and say thanks again for everything you’ve done for me. I am truly grateful!!!

Dr blok bragged when I came out of a double fusion c5 thru c7 and he bragged that the entire procedure took 20 min he didn't take out the bone spurs or the arthritis or scar tissue as promised. And this after he bothed the c4-c5 surgery. And I drove 200 miles to get there. That whole place was a rip-off

Was great the first month after surgery, then the area above the lumbar went completely out cause he didn’t fix it the right way the first time so I would have to have multiple surgeries. I was very happy with his service until I realized what was really going on. Now two years after my lumbar surgery and I’m in worse shape than when I started. They really have a nice surgery factory going on where they thrive off of repeat customers. Avoid at all costs, a couple months of relief isn’t worth the

Dr. Blok and his staff are thorough, caring, and patient. They don't rush you through your appointments, and they aren't jumping to do surgery unless neccessary. My husband and I had a great experience from the front desk to the surgical team. The best place for patient care I highly recommend them. Elizabeth Rizzo

Dr. Blok worked on my husband when he was still in southern Indiana. My husband was a farrier (horse shoer). Dr. Blok said he'd be able to return to work in 6 weeks--and he was.
