Dr. Roderick Gene S Sanden, MD

Forgoes his Hippocratic Oath for a pay check from C.I.G.A. (Work Comp carrier) *Warning regarding CIGA on Google Maps review - a must read.* And Pictures of OP1. As a doctor who deals with nerve problems Dr. Sanden WAS NOT concerned with mine. In need of a back surgery with a 4mm disc bulge, I ended up at Dr. Sanden's office only because he is on C.I.G.A.'s provider list. When showing him my films of a re-fusion surgery with a product called OP1 he diverted his eyes and ignored the films. After a long discussion about the OP1 with me he DIDN'T even address it in the report. What kind of doctor ignores a patients major concerns and nerve problems. The kind of doctor that does what the Work Comp carrier CIGA tells him to do because they don't want to pay for another surgery or have the OP1 addressed. That's just my opinion.

Dr Sanden and his staff are very professional, informative, and kind. They helped me with both of my neck surgeries every step of the way. I trusted Dr Sandan from my very first visit. He took time to listen to me and explained everything to me in a way I could completely understand. Margaret in the office was very helpful and kind as well. I love them all!

I recently had my c 5/6 disc replaced with an artificial disc by him ,and this surgery was life changing for me ! I was in agonizing pain pre surgery , and now my pain is so much better ! There are not enough words in this world to describe my gratitude for him !

Dr. Sanden fixed my neck and all the disks that were messed up really bad. He put in 4 plates and 8 screws and now I do not have any screws loose. My neck is much straighter now and I walk much better.

Never get your appt on time min 1/2hr wait most of the time its about an hour. Never calls back or answer the phone. I would never refer anyone to that office. Seen Dr. Sanden 3 times in about 4 years. I was 27 min late and they would not see . But they are always late. Late twice in about 3 1/2 to 4 years versus them always calling you late 95% of the time. Do yourself a favor and go to anothet doctor ASAP

They took 3 months just to get my tests scheduled and they were level 1 tests, pre-authorized by insurance, totally incompetent. His wife, who works in his office is a stark raving lunatic. I am so grateful my daughter in law was there for a witness! I don't believe Dr Sanden is aware of the dangerous games they are playing but he will be the one in trouble for their shenanigans. Save yourself time and agony, find another neurosurgeon

Excellent surgeon, wonderful staff. Well respected by hospital staff. P/A Is outstanding clinician and works extremely well in concert with Dr. Sanden on All matters.

Dr. Sanden and his staff are the best. He explained everything very clearly and answered all my questions. He performed surgery for my herniated lumbar disk and it was very successful. My follow-up care was highly satisfactory. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Sanden and his entire staff.

He is very good. Fixed my neck and put it back in place as it was just a little to far forward. He saw me when I came out of surgery and on the 2nd day in the hospital he noticed I had a bulge where the incision was made and promptly took me back into surgery to remove a small lemon size blood clot. I am thankful I was in the hospital when it happened. He came to my bedside while I was in the Critical Care unit and told me everything is better and went well. I am very glad I was referred to him and I feel 100% better after going to him and having the Anterior Neck surgery on 4 disks.

He is the only one that diagnose my. broken neck and he save me from many different Terrible doctors. Fair staff need a little help
