Dr. Jared Daniel Ament, MD

I was diagnosed with a severe cervical spinal stenosis that was causing progressive weakness in my arm. A close family friend who is an experienced doctor highly recommended that I go see Dr. Ament. Dr. Ament gave me a thorough examination and carefully reviewed all of my x-rays and imaging studies in great detail. He took the time to explain my condition to me in terms that I could understand. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and kind. I am very grateful to Dr. Ament for helping me to navigate through a really difficult problem. I was fortunate to get recommended to Dr. Ament, and I hope this review will help others get the same great care that I did.

Just the thought of seeing a Neurosurgeon is frightening. But Dr Ament took the time to explain in detail what he saw from my MRI and requested more tests. I left there feeling confident. His office is about 32 miles from me but is worth the drive

Where do I start? I am forever grateful to Dr. Jarod Ament. I was told by my neurologist Dr. Lance Lee to come in to the hospital and meet him in the ED after he saw the very concerning results on my cervical MRI. I was told I would be having emergency surgery. This was probably the scariest day of my life. I was extremely nervous, I couldn’t believe someone was going to have to operate on my cervical spine. I don’t know much about my spine and surgery, but my wife is a nurse and let me know how serious this was. I felt that way until I met Dr. Jarod Ament. I want to thank him for his consistent and thorough research/study of my cervical spine. He actually called me a few times through the night before the surgery to update me on the research he was doing, and told me of the different surgical options available. He then told me the surgical option he thought would be best for my situation. So I opted to have the surgery he thought was best. With all of this, he put my nerves at ease. I… felt confident with this man performing surgery on me. After the surgery, he checked in on me twice a day, and called me in my room to see how I was doing. I have heard stereo types of neurosurgeons being not very friendly. That is not the case with Dr. Ament. He was the nicest man, and he never made me feel like he was rushed at all. I know he is incredibly busy, but he made me felt like I was the only patient he had at the time. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needed to have any kind of a neurosurgery in the future.
