Patient Reviews
Apr 04, 2025
I was very worried about needing fusion of 3 vertebrae in my neck, after I spoke with Dr Wakefield I felt much better. He answered my questions for close to an hour. He showed me problems found in MRI and what needed to be done. He also talked to me about plus and minus of surgery, exactly how he would do it and what my recovery would be like. His office staff is very helpful and the 2 PA's I met were great to work with and very knowledgeable. They also explained everything in detail.
