"I had spinal fusion surgery in my thoracic and lumbar spine a month ago. Dr Montalbano did my surgery at Treasure Valley Hospital (they were amazing) and I couldn't have asked for a better doctor. Since day 1 he has been caring, attentive, informative and had answers to all of my questions. This was a big operation for me and he was always very reassuring and the result was a successful spinal fusion. He and his nurse, Debbie checked in on me each day while in the hospital, updated me on my progress and kept me informed on how things were progressing. I'm still recovering and Dr Montalbano and his staff followed up with me to make sure my recovery is on track and address any questions or concerns I may have. Jessica was great at getting everything scheduled for me prior to my surgery and she took the time to explain things to me. I highly recommend Dr Montalbano if you're in need of a neurosurgeon."

"To be fair I have heard great things about Dr Manning’s skills as a surgeon. That being said, my experience was a bad one. I waited an hour past my schedule time to see the doctor, and then I was taken into one of the patient rooms where I waited another half hour. Finally his P.A came in and spent 20 minutes with me. After that Dr Manning finally showed up and gave me a diagnosis and a bunch of other things to worry about and refused to answer any question about said diagnosis and showed me to the door after ten minutes. So, although I scheduled a one hour appointment with with the doctor, I only was able to speak to him for 10 minutes and I left with zero useful information. $420 is what they bill for that I believe."

"Surgery went great, recovery has been no issues. Staff has been friendly and helpful. If you have an appointment here make sure to clear at least an hour more than you expect, but it's worth it for the excellent results post surgery. Highly recommend."

"I was able to get in for an appt with Dr. Johans within a few weeks of calling. I was in immense pain, and PT was not helping. I had almost zero quality of life because of the debilitating pain. He scheduled the surgery at Treasure Valley Hospital(which was AMAZING), a week after my initial visit, and I had zero complications. Dr Johans was highly recommended from others who had positive experiences with him. I was not disappointed. Almost immediately after surgery I felt 100% better. The pre/post op education that NA provides is unlike anything that I have ever experienced with other surgeons or offices. This greatly helps the entire process to go more smoothly. I would absolutely recommend this practice and Dr. Johans."

"Dr. Kelly Bridges, I highly recommend Dr Bridges, she performed my Laminectomy, and I knew exactly what to expect going into the procedure. She takes her time with you at the appointment so that you understand what she is seeing on the tests, she will not perform unnecessary procedures. Dr Bridges bed side manner is excellent. Her staff is great as well!"
