Patient Reviews
Dec 22, 2023
Dr. Bobby Tay changed my life; I don’t know how to thank him. I can now walk. I am beyond grateful, there is no reward high enough. I can now stand and walk fairly comfortably--a miracle that I never thought I’d experience. I now need to forge a new identity around being able to move. I am now a month out from lumbar spinal fusion—his work is exemplary. I was in the hospital for three days, during which I had some hiccups in the recovery process and Dr. Tay was an absolute rock star during the process: he came in twice to chart a course for follow-up and pharmacological intervention, ordered necessary tests, the entire time I felt like he was on top of it, very reassuring. His office is responsive via MyChart, e.g. when I have a question, they respond ASAP. I lucked out and then some, can’t imagine having had a better surgeon. He is personable, informative, educational, experienced, no superlatives can do him justice. My spine could not have been in better hands. His follow-up spot on
