Patient Reviews
Jul 24, 2018
In 2016 Dr. Tippets did a surgery that completely changed my life. This back surgery was the best single procedure in my life. Twenty-five years of chronic and sometimes debilitating back pain suddenly gone! Things have only gotten better since. Two years later, I live, work, work out daily with zero back pain. I think of him often. Everyone in his office, staff, nurses, and later at the hospital; everything was great! In July 2016 it was as if God Himself said: “rise up and walk”.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
