Best neurosurgeons in town. Would refer all of the physicians to anyone who inquires. The personal time they spend with each patient is a novelty. Not quick with the knife but proficient if it is necessary. Patient and empathetic, with years of experience. Up to date on the latest technology. Why go anywhere else?

Over course of five months I have had gradual increase of pain in my hip. I saw a chiropractor 5 times. The I went to spine specialist. After an e-xray I was told there was nothing wrong. I'm not a complainer but damn, there has to be something wrong. My husband was chatting with a friend who had similar symptoms and was 'cured' by Dr. Waters at Neurosurgical Specialists. Dr. Waters sent me for an MRI and lo and behold there is a tear in my anterior acetabular labral! It's the stuff between your femur and pelvis.
We have a plan to fix it to avoid surgery. Dr. Waters LISTENED to me. He is compassionate and wears crazy socks. If the time spent in the waiting room wasn't so long this would be a five star review.

My appointment was over an hour ago, and I'm still sitting in the waiting room - watching people give up on their appointments. Also have seen a woman hysterically crying in the stairwell because her appointment was canceled and was never called, we heard they wouldn't let her be seen by another doctor. I've been informed "it won't be long" several times, however no indication if that means 15 min or 2 hours.
The return patients act as if this is typical. There's a computer in the waiting room that is down, therefore it continues to loudly beep three times every ten seconds - I've timed it. After over an hour of listening to it, I've nearly gone crazy. I wish I could speak for the doctors and nurses on staff for this location, but I may never see them. Update: after the appointment, I I learned that today truly was the first day of a computer program switch, leaving them with many technical issues. The staff, once you get behind the door, is very friendly and informative. I could tell it had been rough with the technology issues. Upgraded to three stars.
