Dr. Eric Borden Sundberg, MD

Thanks a Million for fix my spine with the two spinal surgeries you had too do , 1 being a XLIF and the being a ACDF about 6 weeks ago! I dont need any pain meds and I was on Fentanyl and oxycodone, so I know pain, Im being careful and following PT Body Mechanics! I just want you too know how grateful Iam, Your Da Best!

Dr Sundberg did surgery May 3 2019 for a Herniated Disc on my sciatica nerve. I had never had so much pain like I had. But my surgery was a success and my 6 weeks of therapy has been so helpful. I can’t thank this whole team enough for my care.

I am very pleased to have found Dr. Eric Sundberg and the resources of Coastal Orthopedics. After exploration and testing of a number of options, and addressing realistic expectations, Dr. Sundberg and I made the decision for back surgery under his care. The process is successful. Today, I am free of pain and with targeted physical therapy, well on the way to improved mobility and balance. I found Dr. Sundberg and the Coastal staff to be involved, compassionate and supportive of my goals every step in the decision and recovering process. Donald Stork

Dr. Sundberg performed ACDL surgery on me and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From my first appointment to my last follow up he, and his staff were very professional. Would highly recommend him to anyone needing this type of procedure.

I had a foraminitomy in 2016 by Dr. Sundberg. 3 weeks post surgical I had a tear in the derma around the spinal cord that caused a spinal leak. It was not evident on an MRI ( done without contrast twice) and was sent home. After 2 ER visits and 3 office visits I forced Dr. Sundberg to drain the fluid to test for spinal fluid. After the tests showed spinal fluid I had a second procedure done to seal the tear. Unfortunately I now have permanent nerve damage that has restricted any recreational activities, sitting or standing for very long. I was very disappointed in Dr. Sundberg’s lack of concern. His assistant was awful with follow up. Worst mistake of my life.

Dr. Sundberg gave me my lifestyle back. As an avid tennis player, biker, walker I was at a point that I could barely walk , sit or stand for more than a few moments. Dr. Sundberg listened to me explain my pain and then told me what was wrong after viewing my records. I had the surgery and today one year later I am my active self again. Trust in Dr. Sundberg.

My back hurt for many years not knowing why. After seeing Dr Sundberg he said I had a cyst that was putting pressure on my siatic nerve and gave me a 96% success rate after surgery. Well to my surprise he was wrong .... it was a 100% success!!! I no longer have any pain. It took only 3 months of therapy by myself with a lot of stretching but I woke up one day smiling and realized “I don’t hurt anymore” . I would HIGHLY recommend Dr Sundberg. He is both professional and courteous. He even sat there and listened to me completely before talking to me. You never hear of a doctor that does that.

Dr Sundberg noticed my symptoms immediately. After 20 some odd years of pain, after surgery on the L2L3L4L5 and S1 I am totally pain free. Up and walking, sitting, PT in 2 days tops. His staff as well as Dr are just as professional. I would recommend him to anyone because he is the best. The main point is he listened to my pain and cared.

I had spinal surgery, T 11- L3, after a fall. Having osteoporosis and Multiple Sclerosis were complicating factors. Dr. Sundberg was very thorough, explained everything I had concerns about, and things that hadn't occurred to me. My husband and I were very nervous since I had never had a surgery and found that Dr. Sundberg was very understanding and patient and that he had a physician's assistant named Juanita who was also a godsend. If there was ever a time that I needed support, this was it and they were wonderful about returning calls and answering my questions. As it turns out I fell again before my scheduled date and Dr Sundberg came to see me in the ER and ended up performing the surgery that evening. I am now without pain, up and walking and very thankful he was my surgeon. I recommend him without reservation for his compassion and surgical skills.
