Dr. Dimmig gave me my life back. Four months after spinal fusion surgery I am pain free and able to walk again! He’s a master of his craft and I cannot thank him and his staff (Andrew) enough! Highly recommend!

I had a two level spinal fusion surgery two years ago. I had been suffering for 5 years. The surgery is the best thing I ever did. It changed my life. Dr. Dimmig is a great surgeon. During my pre-op appointment, the nurse treating me said she wouldn't let any doctor touch her back except him.....and this was a nurse with 40 years experience. She was right about him. Dr. Dimmig is not the most social/talkative doctor, but he knows what he's doing. He gave me plenty of time to ask all the questions I had and told me what to expect. He was dead on correct. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Dr should track how many pills are being prescribed to patients, I know of one of his patients who is selling them to buy alcohol

I saw Dr. Dimmig on a referral from my doctor for previously undiagnosed advanced degenerative spinal disease. He looked at the x-rays and MRIs and "The damage is too extensive. I can't do surgery. Come back when you can't use your arms." Then he essentially walked out of the room, done with me. I had just learned there was something wrong with me that week and I was terrified and crying . He offered no alternative, no referrals, nothing to help me in anyway . Essentially he left me to believe that I was headed for a life of permanent disability and offered nothing in the way of support or treatment. It was a horrible experience. I don't know if he is a good surgeon or not but his patient care, concern and compassion is lousy.

Dr Dimmig is a very good doctor. I did not feel rushed. He listened to everything I had to say.

Dr. Dimmig performed my back fusion surgery a year ago. Zero post op pain... recovery was a breeze... Words of advice...listen to him, do exactly what he says and you will have a great recovery. Best bed side manner of any doctor I have ever had - I say this after six other surgeries on other anatomical areas.

Choosing Dr Dimmig was the smartest thing I have done in 15 years. Some people might be turned off by his bedside manner. He concentrates on getting to know the specifics of the medical problem and how to fix it and lets the PA working with him to sit with the patient and answer the questions. You want a skilled surgeon or someone to talk to? You get both here but with a team of two people instead of one person.

Went to my appointment and I saw a PA. I expected to see him and have at least enough time to get to the bottom of my back problem.
