Dr. Alexander Sloan Bailey

DO NOT go to this crook! I was sent to him for a spinal work comp injury and he sided with the WC insurance company and wrote down in his reports whatever the insurance company told him to write, just so the WC insurance company wouldn't have to keep paying for my healthcare. I got screwed as he acknowledged that I was in severe pain at my last visit, but he then said, and I quote, "There's nothing more I can do for you now. It's up to the lawyers now". He was completely paid under the table by the WC insurance company.

I saw Dr Bailey for a cervical spine injury underneath workman's compensation.He what is the definition of " fake it tell you make it " I myself would not let he cut on a stuffed animal do your self a favor and seek treatment elsewhere

HE MOST CERTAINLY DOES NOT CARE FIR ANY ONE OTHER THAN HIS HILARIOUS HAIRCUT. SMUG. Condescending. He’s guilty of more than just getting paid paid by Worker’s comp lawyers . this guy is terrifyingly awful. Rudest experience of my life. He’s honed his skill. Great job. He is the worst doctor ever. The fact that he was wearing scrubs is a scream though . A literal laugh riot.

Dr. Bailey is an amazingly talented and caring surgeon. After three and a half years of debilitating pain, he fixed me and I am forever grateful to him for giving me my life back.

Refuses to bite the hand that feeds. Has no problem lying in reports for worker's compensation. Obviously does not believe in an afterlife. No clue how he sleeps at night.

He definitely fits that a work comp doctor persona.

saw him for a back injury at work he referred me to another doctor the work comp insurance sent me to another dr and he said I didn't and he caved in an went with what the work comp insurance company said and released me back to full duty

Got great results from neck surgery. Dr Bailey is honest, dedicated, efficient, and I believe if it can be done, he can do it! Great experience and highly recommend.

He is an excellent surgeon who truly cares for his patients well being. Three weeks following surgery I am in less pain than I have been in the last 4+ years.

I, for the life of me do not understand a negative reviews about Dr Baileys personality, bedside manner, explanation of options, etc. these people were obviously people who are themselves belligerent or didn't get the pain pills they wanted. I have had 4 back and 1 neck surgery by Dr Bailey and there isn't a rude or uncompassionate bone in his body. From the first time I met him in 2004 he has taken the time necessary to order tests either read them himself or have them sent out for reading by a specialist. When my next appointment arrived he would come into room and sit down right away. I thought that was great because we didn't feel rushed while going over results and options and he stayed and answered all questions we had. He then explained my options but never ever said I need to have surgery which is all that will fix me. I do not believe he would do a surgery if it wasn't necessary. I'm extremely happy with each surgery he did as it gave me pain relief for the year or two until my next problem. My spine looks like its in the body of an 80 year old and I'm only 58. M bad luck. I have recommended him to others that have asked about a spine dr and all had good words to say, weather he did the surgery for them or not. Do not be afraid to get an apt with this gifted surgeon for a consultation. People that have questioned his attitude or purpose obviously don't get along with many people themselves. Thanks Dr Bailey for all your hard work and caring attitude.

I had a 3 level fusion in my neck. Surgery was preformed by Dr. Bailey. I have read some reviews about Dr. Bailey not having a good bedside manner, but I don't judge a Dr. by how nice he or she is. I want to know what is wrong and how we are going to address it. That's exactly what Dr. Bailey does. Doesn't sugar coat anything. Gave me the facts about the surgery (pro and con). It's been 3 months since surgery and I already feel so much better. Very good results for what I had done!!! This is a very serious procedure and should not be taken lightly and don't expect results to quickly. Thank You Dr. Bailey!!!!

As a surgeon, he should review all medical information from previous doctors and does not. He formed his opinion per the insurance provider and not per the patient and the patients condition. He is easily paid off by work comp insurance companies. Would not ever let this surgeon operate.

I will never go back to this uncaring and rude doctor. He actually raised his voice to me and gave me very little time to answer his questions in full.

His receptionist could be more friendly but back office is great.I have to say he does good work but does underestimate time of recovery. 1 month after back surgery he said I was ready to return to work. I could hardly do any household chores let alone work 9 hours standing all day. I returned to work 3 mths post op. I was only supposed to be in the hosp for 3 days and my stay was 5 days. Not his problem but the anethesia kept me asleep for 3 days. Still want answers on that one.If you want a job well done go to him but don't expect sympathy nor compassion from him.

I found Dr. Bailey to not only come across as if he was in a hurry to be somewhere else, but that he was guessing at what I needing?Some ideas to get you started:-Write about overall experiences-Write about what you like or dislike about your physician-Write about whether you would recommend-Write as if you are talking to a peer who is asking your opinion

Dr Bailey is one of the most caring Drs I have had the privelege of meeting. He has done three surgeries on me with remarkable success each time. I have a very aggressive spinal degenerative disease which explains the 3 operations He will sit down with you and explain everything to you. I have never felt rushed on any of my appointments with him. Only once did I have to wait more than 15 minutes from check-in to see him. My results were very favorable each time. He leaves the ultimate decision as to your direction of treatment to you, the patient. The heartland spine and Seciality hospital is 2nd to none. They will a accomidate you in any way possible. All 3 of my surgeries were totally my decision alone. This man is one of the most compasionate people I have ever encountered. Everyone that I have suggested to see him have been equally impressed. It's a shame there aren't enough Drs with his ability and bed-side manner in today's world. I am amazed at any negative comments directed toward Dr Bailey. He is one of the top spine surgeons around.

This doctor sent me for trigger point injections and physical therapy. The Doctor who was to do the injections looked at the mri. She then stated, " anytime the mri and what the doctor says does not match, I do my own exam. Of course her exam was very detailed. Dr. Bailey only shook my hand. Outside of the hand shake he never touched me. He acted like a company doctor. He was more concerned with my employer than me. I have a very large employer.
