Patient Reviews
Jul 16, 2022
Dr. Placide assisted in removing a large malignant tumor from my paraspinal muscles and we had to take quite a bit of my spine with it. He rebuilt me with hardware 5 days later. He is the least cocky of all the surgeons I’ve met in my life. So down to earth and treats me like an equal. He’s a very smart, educated and talented man in orthopedics and spinal specialties. When my hardware failed 2 years later, his disappointment was palpable. His empathy is great for his patients. When he does rounds, I enjoy hearing him coming to my room. His visits are always happy. Also, I haven’t met a member of his team that I haven’t liked. Well, Chuck can be difficult to handle. He’s the office manager and can be short and rude at times. Dr. Placide is the bees knees of surgeons!!
