I had many appointments for neck and back issues that were plaguing me since November of 2017. I have seen four civilian providers to treat my condition. I was given an epidural, physical therapy, NSAIDs and nothing worked. I kept getting rescheduled for follow up appointments until Womack Orthopedics called and said the surgeon is back and I had an appointment on 27 August. The day after my appointment the cervical arthroplasty procedure was completed by Dr. Cleveland. Dr. Cleveland and his staff were professional and compassionate. My brother passed away the day of my surgery. Emotionally I broke down and the staff allowed me to grieve and were genuinely concerned about my well being. I appreciate being treated as a person instead of a Soldier. The surgery I believe was a success. If I had my choice I would use Dr. Cleveland again for my next procedure. I thanked him and the staff at least 20 times before I left.
