  1. VERY VERY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE LEFT MESSAGES AND NEVER GOT RETURN CALL–SORRY I DID GET SOMEONE AT CLWEMONT AND SHE PUT ME ON HOLD AND AFTER WAITING AROUND 14 MINUTES i HUNG UP,,BAD BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE,,USED TO GO TO THEM FOR MY TREATMENTS /CHECK UP, NOT ANY MORE!!!!!!!

  2. they keep you runnjng about as they cant do things right they cant do follow up appointments and dont let them fax things for you wait and get the papers and do it yourself

  3. Dr. Stuart and the staff are awesome one of the best doctors I’ve ever seen would recommend him to anybody and the staff are very friendly and helpful also

  4. I called 2 times to make an appointment for a new patient, the secretary answers, takes my information, tells me she’ll call next day and she never calls, this happened twice already! Shameful.

  5. After 5 years of pain and all kinds of treatment i diced to get the operation. Now realized waiting so long was a mistake .my pain relive from the prosidior it is incredibly

  6. The staff was nice however I was asked to present a school ID or some form of picture id of my 11 year old. I’ve never heard of this and wasn’t informed to bring such documents prior to our visit. I have NEVER had to show a picture id of my children even at the airport.

  7. Dr. Snavely was great as well as his staff. Told us exactly what we need to know and how to go about doing all of it! I would recommend anyone who has back issue to them.

  8. Dr. Placer is kind and patient. He keenly listens and is instrumental in finding solutions for patients dealing with chronic back pain. He is also respectful if a patient decides not to undergo back surgery.

  9. Dr. Stewart has changed my life. I am not fully recuperated yet but I am so much better then before surgery already. I would highly recommend Dr Stewart to everyone

  10. Very courteous and professional staff. Dr. Flynn was very helpful and didn’t rush like some other doctors. Would definitely recommend this office to anyone!

  11. Refused to assess my medical notes, liars. They say have no email and cannot open any online files, medieval practice probably outdated equipment for the doctors too, who probably practice medicine from the 70s, very rude staff! I asked to …

  12. The Doctors at the Spine and Scoliosis Center in Orlando are in touch with their patients. In shorter terms “they care”. Their warm staff ready with a smile makes me feel I’m with family. S&SC go! Yeah! Thanks Doc…

  13. The staff & Dr. Placier are professional, but caring. Dr Placier takes an interest in my health & restrictions. His nurse is very personable!
    They respond to phone calls & office staff is friendly.

  14. For anybody suffering Back or Spine issues there is not a better practice in Orlando. Caring and compassionate staff and Doctors that actually listen to you. I can not say enough great things about them. Go to them and you will agree.

  15. Today I Had the first in a series of three steroid shots administered by Dr. Placer for my back and leg pain. I found it to be fairly pain free, less than I anticipated. Looking forward to resuming my active lifestyle after the completion of the last two treatments.

  16. First of all, to those who provided those negative responses, at least learn how to write English with proper grammar and syntax! (If you don’t understand my words, Look ’em up) Second, what c*nts you are! …

  17. I was pleasantly pleased with the service and prognosis. They are not out to drain your bank account with unnecessary visits or therapy. Wonderful and pleasant staff. Love Dr Flynn

  18. Caring and concerned!!!! Very personable and interested in my condition. Receptionist and front office staff extremely kind. Assistants passionate about their vocation. Dr Placer, well let’s just say I had to give him a hug 😉 …

  19. Today’s appointment was, as always, handled professionally. Dr Stewart and all the staff we interacted with are respectful and answered all questions big and small. We’ve been with the center for five years and have never had a bad experience.

  20. Unfortunately my experience wasn’t as good as I was expecting. I learned that unless you have a major case that requires an expensive treatment and/or surgery, they will just take the copy, prescribe you pain killers and go on. I felt that …

  21. GEOFFREY STEWART IS AN OUTSTANDING SURGEON! He operated on my back after a terrible accident,. I don’t think anyone thought i would walk again. I was out of the hospital in two weeks on the road to recovery. I was back to laying bricks …

  22. I appreciated the fact that everyone was very nice and courteous. They explained everything in a language that I could understand. They gave me choices instead of telling me what they think I should do. I felt comfortable and was totally satisfied. I would gladly recommend anyone.

  23. Today September 25, 2018. I went to this center looking for a doctor that listen and care about his patients. I found all of this and more. All the personnel were very caring and good listener fo what I have to tell them about my back …

  24. I had my first consult with Dr Snavely today. The staff and as well as Dr Snavely are very knowledgeable, professional and pleasant. They take their time with all of your questions and concerns. I look forward to my future visits with them.

  25. I have had 2 back surgeries and have gone to Dr Placer for 4 years. He specializes in chronic back pain problems etc. And has helped me several times by suggesting different treatments. He has always taken the time to listen and help me feel better. Brenda P.

  26. 10 stars to Dr Stewart. He was amazing. He spent quality time with me and explained what my problems were and what my plan of treatment should be. Thank you again for working me In and seeing me on short notice.

  27. Terrible customer services. If you wanna ask something or refill prescription at least you have to call 2-3 times if you don’t they don’t call you back ever! And then nurse said I send it out your prescription but no any Walgreens have my …

  28. In 2015 I went to Dr Stewart at the Spine & Scoliosis Center for help. They bent over backwards to help me where the VA failed, and began accepting insurance from the VA Choice card to cover me. Lumbar surgery with Dr’s Stewart and Flynn …

  29. Really like Dr. Flynn! Back pain is the worst, and no one is ever happy when they are in this condition, but the receptionist is a delight and Dr. Flynn is extremely easy to talk with. Very, very happy with my experience! Be patient, back pain is no fun for anyone.

  30. Dr.Stewart and staff are wonderful people. I feel they make you feel good about yourself and help in anyway they can. They do understand the pain people go thru. They explain everything and help with Insurance companies. If you have back problems The Spine and Scoliosis center is the place to go.

  31. Ridiculously long wait times to be seen, terrible communication between staff and with patients, zero acceptance of responsibility. Dr Stewart and Dr Placer are terrible with time management, terrible with patient communication and have zero respect for the patients that come seeking help. THIS PLACE IS TERRIBLE.

  32. Everyone who works here is friendly and knowledgeable. They take the time to listen to what you are saying and they give you their FULL attention when doing so. They DON’T rush you in and out. Dr. Stewart is the same… friendly, attentive, …

  33. Just an awful experience. Dr. Flynn came highly recommended but when I went I was left with a poor visit start to finish. The front desk staff were very unfriendly and short tempered with me when I missed signing one of the new patient …

  34. I Love 🤎 The Spine & Scoliosis Center. I had back surgery in 2017 and have been a patient since 2007. I was treated with the best of care, respect and courtesy when visiting this office. I absolutely adore Stephanie a medical assistant in …

  38. After my visit with Dr. Joseph Snavely I was very satisfied with him and his staff. They were so professional from the front desk on. I never felt rushed and he explained everything and made sure I understood it all. I knew right away I was in the right place. Definitely a 10 out of 10.

  39. Dr. Javier Placer and the rest of team are the most Compasionate and treat everyone with Dignity and Respect. There is no other doctors office more passionate for what they do like them. Detail oriented and always there to help you on your …

  40. I am so grateful to S&SC. Dr Flynn fixed my broken spinal fusion and Dr Placer and his staff (especially Stephanie) are always friendly, helpful and honest with me about pain treatment. I don’t ever want to go to a different practice. I will always highly recommend these guys

  41. Dr. Placer and his staff are caring and friendly, always addressing my medical concerns competently. They make me feel like a valued customer and I highly recommend this office.

  42. “Inattentive and haphazard care” would be the brief summary of my experience with Dr. Placer. I made an appointment because I was experiencing severe pain in my right arm. He examined me once in the Orlando office. After that, my two …

  43. Dr Stewart is an amazing doctor.
    He performed spine surgery on my wife and she has improved greatly.
    He has an excellent bedside manner and is a very compassionate doctor.
    I would highly recommend Dr Stewart.

  44. I was on the phone with Maggie, the insurance verification person. She went above and beyond what I would have ever expected!!
    The nurses and P.A.’s were outstanding! …

  45. I have been having tremendous pain in my left leg. Dr Stuart took an X-ray and wanted to get an MRI done. This was the first time I had seen dr Stuart. He was very pleasant and easy to talk with about my problem. His office staff is also very friendly.

  46. I love Dr Stewart, Stephanie and the rest of the staff. Dr Stewart saved my life when I had surgery to correct my spine from scoliosis with a 55% curvature. I have rods and 18 screws and bolts, so my spine will stay straight for a very long time. He is the best surgeon ever and I recommend anyone with spine problems to go see Dr Stewart.

  47. The entire staff was cheerful and helpful. They each appeared to actually care that you were there for a possibly scary reason. Dr. Snavely’s MA, Stephanie, was particularly warm, positive, and professional.

  48. They made room for me on the same day even though they were booked because I was in great pain from a pinched nerve. Staff were great and the PA was thorough. Got a quick X-Ray and Dr knew exactly what to do to test his thinking and get me to the next step in care. I will definitely go back if need arises

  49. Drocter SNAVELY is the best surgeon in all of Florida!!He was always very professional but still made me feel like I was always a person,not just another body. He was very helpful in my opinion!! I can’t say enough about everything that he did and the office at the spine center was always helpful and friendly.

  50. I have had 2 back surgeries by Dr.Stewart and my husband had one. Not only is Dr. STEWART skilled surgeon, but also a caring and genital man. His associate, Dr.Placer is wonderful as well in his field of Pain Management. I highly recommend these two gentleman. You will get the best care.

  51. I saw Dr. Geoffrey Stewart. He has a great bedside manner and he answered all of my questions. The staff was courteous and professional. I was able to obtain an appointment the very next day. Other orthopedic groups couldn’t see me for 45 day. I highly recommend, The Spine & Scoliosis Center.

  52. I was expecting to wait a long time, like other doctors office are. But with Dr. Stewart’s office the wait time was very short. Dr. Stewart was very professional and I felt very comfortable with him being my spine Dr. The girls in the back are nice and friendly. The girl at the front could not be any friendlier.

  68. Dr Placer is the absolute best. I have been seeing him for a while now and wouldnt go anywhere else. He is the only 1 I trust to ever give me an injection in my back which he has done a few times. I very highly recommend him. The whole staff are very nice. They are an excellent group.

  69. Dr Placer is great. He’s kind, caring and very professional. I originally came to the office in 2018 and saw Dr Flynn. Now that he’s retired I’m seeing Dr Placer. Everyone at the office is pleasant and caring. Highly recommend them.

  70. What a joy to see Dr. Snavely in the new(?) office in Winter Haven. He is not in the same practice as Neurology and Neuro Surgery Associates although he is in that building. I say this because I found everyone from the receptionist to the …

  71. My husband and I have seen Doctor Placer for several years. He has always been very compassionate, he listens, and will strive to help return quality of living back to you. We both have had chronic pain management as well as spinal …

  79. I’d give them a 0 if I could. The staff is rude and the Dr. really don’t care about you as a patient.

Please don’t waste your time or money going here Find yourself a better place.

  83. Dr. Stewart and his staff are wonderful. I need surgery but I’m not mentally ready. I was told to wait as long as possible.
