Having been plagued with progressive decline in mobility for over 5 years, having seen numerous pyhsicians and received every imaginable pain control modality, it was like "a gift from heaven" when I saw Dr. Mustroph for the first time and he said he felt "certain the procedure he could do would provide me some relief." Indeed it did!!! I was essentially "pain free" the day after surgery. Although I need some physical therapy to get muscles back to normal, the "nerve pain" is gone. What a Blessing. |

Dr Mustroph was flexible and available to see me sooner than my 6-month surgery follow up due to a longer recovery. Dr Mustroph and I discussed my chief medical complaints, listened, provided open communication, analyzed my health issues, and ordered additional tests to get to the source of the discomfort I was having. Dr Mustroph is both caring, concerned, and shows compassion for his patients' needs. |

Have recommended Dr Mustroph to multiple people. I feel like I'm in very capable hands with him. He was incredibly patient, explained everything in a way I could easily understand, gave me some options and listened when I asked if there were alternatives. He ALSO took the time to help assess the bigger picture of what might be going on with my body, while keeping boundaries of assessment within his wheelhouse. I even told him he's the only doctor I have (out of several) that took the time with me-I never felt rushed or herded through any part of the experience. THANK You! |
|

The experience was excellent from start to finish. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made me feel completely at ease before the procedure. His professionalism, skill, and genuine care were evident throughout the entire process. The surgery went smoothly, my recovery has been better than I could have imagined, and I am finally free from the pain that had been holding me back for so long. I truly appreciate his expertise and compassion, and I would highly recommend Dr. Mustroph to anyone in need of a top-notch back surgeon. |
