“I had validation from Dr. Biggs that there was a reason for my pain. He explained what my issue was and gave me my options on how to fix it. It is now 3 months after having a one level fusion, I feel great. I will never regret having the surgery or having Dr. Biggs as my surgeon. He gave me my life back!”

“Dr. Biggs fixed my nerve impingement that had previously left me without the ability to walk, sleep, or work without massive amounts of pain. I couldn’t be happier with my result and would highly recommend him.”

“Dr. Biggs ensured that I fully understood the surgery and recovery process. He always took time to answer my questions. I was hesitant about having a spinal fusion, but Dr. Biggs took time to answer my questions and educate me about why it was the preferred solution for my injury. He explained other options and why those options might not be the best fit for my specific needs and what I wanted to achieve. The surgery went well, and my recovery is going smoothly. I felt well prepared going into my ACDF surgery, and so far everything has gone exactly as he explained it would be. My worst symptoms of arm pain and numbness were resolved immediately after the surgery. My migraine headaches are gone. I am only two weeks post op, and am already feeling so much better. I am so grateful that I can look forward to being active again once I am fully healed and my restrictions are lifted. I am so happy with the entire OCR staff (receptionists, nurses, medical assistants…everyone was amazing) and am beyond grateful that I had such a skilled surgeon.”

“I went to Dr. Biggs for back pain, and he was very helpful in assessing the cause, and explaining the treatment options. He took plenty of time to answer all of my questions, and provided me with a very comprehensive analysis of my MRI. I felt quite comfortable with the entire experience, and am happy to provide him with a 5 star rating.”

– Douglas D.

“Dr Biggs care for the last 15 years has been a saving Grace for my body! Always has my best interests at heart! I thank him every day when I am able to exercise in the pool and floor with a group! I recommend his superior care to anyone with any spinal issues!”
