I have seen 4 of the top ranked spine surgeons as rated by US News & World Report. Dr Rothbart and his staff were awesome. He recommended the least invasive surgical option of the 4 to fixing my L4/L5/S1 herniated discs. He took a lot of time to identify the cause of the pain, explained everything to me, gave me expected percentages of relieving the pain with each option, provided timelines for recovery post surgery and answered all my questions. At the end of the day you have to pick whoever you feel most comfortable with but I have nothing but positive things to say about Dr Rothbart and his staff at Spine Team Texas.
