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.

Never again
He failed to show up for the appt, so his wife filled in for him. At 7 minutes into appt she said I have spinal cord compression which was instantly proven false by the Dr that did my spinal fusion prior. Then when asked to refill a Tramadil prescription she said she could not, then she asked another Dr in the office to fill the script. 45 Min later in great pain I arrived at pharmacy when Dr asked me to drive back because I needed a paper script, not a digital script. Not true. Then when I asked what's going on here they explained to me that Dr Anna Uschold had not finished the schooling to prescribe meds. Wow! Then when I called for a real appt with Dr Timothy Uschold he had an attorney try to contact me threatening me. Most unqualified and un professional medial facility I've ever experienced. I suggest you go 4 hrs north or 4 hrs south. You will regret ever going to either of these two Dr's.

The Doctor was great
Dr. Uschold was great. His office staff's competency was so poor, which makes me never want to go to them again. Not only that, but they are beyond rude!

Finds out what my neck was doing.
The doctor was pleasant and understanding and not pushy either. I thought he diagnose me rather well with what he had on my neck.

Wonderful surgeon, kind person too
Dr. Uschold operated on my severely ruptured L4-L5. Granted I do not have experience with back surgeries, but heard enough over the years (from people involved on both sides of the process) to keep me terrified of the surgery and of the recovery. Dr. Uschold did not try to convince me to go for the surgery, just explained the MRI results and thoroughly described the upcoming surgery. Turned out the surgery was even more complex and involved than they judged from the MRI, yet the recovery was just amazingly easy, with minimal pain management, minimal scaring and great mobility within days. It is amazing to be able to move and live my life without pain (though with some physical limitations for a while). I am eternally grateful to Dr Uschold, Dakota Donahoe and the entire SONSA staff. And as wonderful as it has been, I hope to meet them only outside of their professional capacities.

An end to a nightmare
I had an issue with my right arm and the Doctor's at SONSA including Dr. Uschold explained what was going on, did their best to address the issue and get me into surgery to fix the issue in a timely manner. I was stuck in a nightmare for 8 months thinking I would never have the proper use of my right hand again and after the surgery I feel 100% better even knowing that my recovery will be slow and lengthy. I feel that I will never find the words that will say thank you enough for the wonderful care and treatment.

Caring and informative
Brought my 74 year old mother in for what we thought would result in a diagnosis of back surgery. Dr. Uschold took time to explain the options and answered all question and addressed all concerns. Thankfully we can avoid surgery for now.

Absolutely The Best Care Imaginable!!
Doctor Uschold literally gave me back my life and the care he and his Staff provided was first class! Dr. Uschold explained in detail what the issues were with my spine and the best course of action would be an invasive surgery. Upon returning to my room after surgery I was able to feel my feet and legs again. My hospital stay was brief, one day. It has been 5 weeks since my surgery and I am walking normally again for the first time in a long while. My Wife and I are Grateful beyond words. I would recommend him and his Staff to anyone have spinal issues in a heartbeat.
