Stephen J. Warner, MD

I have had Dr Warner doing different surgery on my neck and back going back to 2014. Dr Warner is a very direct Doctor, he does not feed you full of shit or make promises. What Dr Warner does is let you know your probabilities based on what he has to do and on YOU. If a person is positive and willing to do the work for rehabilitation, then you will do well. If you are negative and just want to do the blame game because you are lazy, well...it goes the way you handle things. I had front and back of the cervical neck surgery 9 years ago going from C3 to T1 and to this day have full movement and no pain. I am post opp 2 months on a low back surgery which has been difficult but I remain positive, feeling that when PT I will feel much better. The problem is, I waited far to long to have this surgery and it made it that much more difficult. As is, I also had scoliosis which made my low spine curve horribly. Even though its only been post opp 2 months and it is hard walking any… distance, at least I can stand straight now and not have a terrible curve. So I know it will get better with time and work from PT. My only thing I really miss is that each follow up is not with Dr Warner, now days its with his PA. Back in 2014 it was solely with Dr Warner. This has been my only issue. I really love Dr Warner and love his Care and direct manner. I can't stand any Doctor that has to sugar coat things. I think now days to many people think they are owed a doctor that will boo hoo with them and say Oh my you poor thing. I will always pass on by those type of Doctors. Thank you Dr Warner for being such a great and direct Doctor I trust!

Absolutely acted like I was making things up after I discussed I was a recovering drug attic six years clean after that was mentioned whole demeanor changed questioned why are use the cane question my back problems even though two surgeons before me recommended back fusion but they didn’t take my insurance so I had to go to Dr. Warner which was an absolute mistake everybody should not waste their time with this waste of a doctor

My outcome from surgery is great! He is a surgeon I trust.

I was recommended personally by a doctor at Shriners hospital to go to Dr warner after having a previous scoliosis surgery. Since I am past the age of getting a check up, I needed to find a specialist to check up on my upper spine to make sure that it hasn't curved anymore. I waited for about 10 minutes and Dr warner came in. He acted very confused about what my situation was and so I explained. He acted as if I was wasting his time and basically told me that he couldn't help me, but got me a gown to put on anyway as he felt obligated to look at my back. By then, I was a aggravated by the way I was treated and walked out. I told his assistant that I was going to leave because I felt like I was wasting his time, and then turned around and told him how I felt. He apologized and gave me another option. I would not recommend going to Dr Warner. I personally did not have a pleasant experience.

Dr. Warner is exceptional!

This was the absolute most terrible experience of my life dr. Warner has a bedside manner of a narcissist after my surgery never heard from him again it was absolutely the worst thing I've ever been through I would never give Dr Warner permission to give my dog a Tyleno. I would HIGHLY go out and get second opinions before ever having back surgery just my experience good luck and I have been living with this since 2009

The first time he sat with my husband and I he was kind and helpful. After the surgery he wanted nothing to do with me including kicking me out of his office because he thought the medication my other doctor prescribed was too much. He called me a drug addict in front of staff and patients. He never stopped by my hospital room to see if I was okay either. Now I need more extensive surgery and there is NO WAY I will ever see this human being who has a God complex!

Arrogant, left without following through with proper instruction for hospital staff. No bedside manner," Felt I did surgery. now it up to someone else." Person was left with faulty equipment in room. no one checked. Hospital couldn't get in touch with Dr. to approve pain meds. Just turned his back on person and walked out. Hospital and Dr. have much to learn about communication,Bedside manner, Caring & actually listening to what the patient has said & told him before surgery. This experience was one I can't forget ever. I even have night mare's about this persons time with surgery, & the Dr's lack of concern, bedside manner,

I have been to MANY surgeons. Dr. Warner is kind, knowledgable, and very attentive. I have been so impressed by his caring manor and his constant attentiveness.

stepping wrong off a step, I had double compound fracture in the tibula and fibula near the ankle. I was so lucky that he was on call that night, his work was exceptional and he made sure to give me the extra care that made it possible for me to walk without a limp. Dr. Warner did things that other doctors would not have done, I feel gratitude for all he did for me.
