    Matt listens and explained my situation with my back. He shows me the pictures of the MRI and helps me understand my pain and discusses solutions. I trust him.

    I am more than thrilled to say that Matt Badger was able to get me into the surgeon much faster for an emergency surgery. My neck hurt so bad and I was losing feeling all over my body and he felt it was important to get me in. Thanks to Matt Badger and all his staff.

    He is very friendly and personable. He felt the need to validate my pain - I wasn't seeking validation, but I felt it is a very good practice with patients who might feel intimidated by doctors. He provided options for treatment and didn't push any one in particular. He listened (in fact, encouraged responses by his active listening) and heard me out. It was a great experience and I wish I could clone his manner to every doctor that I see.
