Patient Reviews
Dec 04, 2022
I am so impressed with Dr. Traynelis and his team. He thoroughly explained everything involved with the issues in my cervical spine, and was always concerned about addressing questions until I completely understood what was happening in my spine and the steps he would take to correct the situation. He never pushed surgery given that I could go for long asymptomatic periods. He will give you all the time you need to help you, he is warm and personable, and most important — an incredibly skilled surgeon. I did my research and met with top surgeons from Northwestern and Loyola. When my husband and I met with Dr. Traynelis, we knew he was the right choice.
