Ahmad Bader M.D. 1026 A Avenue Northeast, Cedar Rapids, IA 52402

"My boyfriend Al Chadwell and I are so incredibly grateful for Dr. Bader and his PA Jeremy. It took us 3 months to find a neurosurgeon who listened to us and understood there was really something very wrong with Al’s spine. No ONE at Mercy Hospital or UOI listened to us. He was the only neurosurgeon who requested a CT scan for further imaging. We cannot say enough wonderful things!!! Al had his T12-L1 fused on Jan 19th. Thanks to Dr. Bader, Al can finally feel both his legs again! He lost feeling due to his long degeneration of his T12-L1. Due to long term damage of a compression fracture. Although pain following surgery is never fun, they did a good job managing it the best they could. For all of this we are forever grateful!! Thank you and god bless Dr. Bader and his PA Jeremy. We know you have tough jobs and we are so blessed to have had you in our journey to recovery for Al. Thank you again for everything! You guys are THE BEST! Amanda and Al"

"Very thorough at explaining MRI and talking through options. Felt he cared about my care plan and what was best for me. Surgery went well and several nurses commented how great Dr Bader is and how committed he is to his patients. Staff was also great when I had questions before surgery."
