This visit was to go over surgical options, what further tests are needed prior to deciding those surgical options, and what possible outcomes they would be.Dr. Monteith did my first cervical fusion and everything went extremely well. I would recommend Dr. Monteith to everyone. He is extremely knowledgeable, intelligent, professional, friendly and communicates very well with you. Especially explaining complicated medical terminology/issues so that a layman/woman would easily understand.
