I was sad to see, Dr. Kenneth Tonymon leave Fort Smith. He is a great doctor, I will be following him to Springdale Ar, tho it is a bit of a drive. My operation was 11 hour back surgery, he did a great job.

It has been almost six years sense Dr Tonymon removed a blood clot from my brain. He prayed before surgery and I thank him for saving my life

My husband died under Toneyman’s care at NEA Hospital. I’m surprised he’s still “practicing” medicine.

My husband was brought to the hospital by ambulance with a subdural hematoma. Dr. Tonymon was on call, thank God. He saved my husbands life. He was knowledgeable, honest, and real. God sent him our way.

I had a very serious neck operation that took8.5 hrs. On the table and I'd say he most likely saved my life.Still in good shape with 80% movement either way. Then a year or so later I ruptured the disk below the fixed ones and he came thru again for me so if I have neck problems again even tho I live in Michigan I will be looking him up. Besides that he is one heck of a a nice down to earth guy.

I would recommend Dr. Tonymon to anyone who may need neck or back surgery. He did my neck surgery in 2007 and I still no longer have pain. Kind and professional, he really took time to listen to me and explain everything so I could understand it.

While suffering from severe back pain, which has seriously hindered my ability to function, my primary physcian referred me to Dr. Tonymon. The earliest appt. I could get was out 3 months. Couldn't get on a stand-by list as they are always double-booked. Now, 2 work days before, I was called and told that due to a conflict in his schedule, he couldn't see me and they would not reschedule my appt.at this time. THIS WAS DEVASTATING NEWS FOR ME AND A TOTAL LACK OF PROFESSIONALISM.
