WHAT OUR PATIENTS HAVE TO SAY...

  • Great care and service. Everyone was courteous, well mannered, and polite. Have/will recommend to others.

  • Dr. Huffmon operated on my head after a bad fall. I felt secure with his care and advice. Dr. Huffmon and his staff were very caring and attentive.

  • I have been in the office a couple of times in the last year. Experience has always been positive.

  • Dr. Thomas saved my life! I tell everyone, he is the absolute best!

  • Very friendly office staff. It was my first appointment and every one was very helpful and made sure that I was comfortable. Dr Thomas and his PA Robin MacLawhorn were amazing! Explained everything thoroughly and gave me options and took their time with me. I am definitely happy I am with their practice. Very polite, efficient, considerate and professional.

    — Michelle S.
  • Everyone was very nice and check in was easy. I felt as though the PA Sheila was very thorough. She took time to explain things to me and answer my questions. I felt very relieved when I left there. I highly recommend that practice.

    — Patricia F.
  • Without a doubt the best experience I’ve had in years! I got to ask all the questions I wanted and she made sure that I understood all the answers without ever rushing me or making me feel rushed. The doctor and all the supporting staff are so friendly and welcoming you almost forget your there at a doctors appointment. I highly recommend this place to anybody looking for a neurosurgeon! Especially now a day when every doctor is cramming every single person they possibly can in and then giving you less than 5 minutes!

    — Colby K.
  • One of the best medical appointments I've ever had. Dr. Thomas was very clear on the prognosis and recommended next steps. Also patient to address all questions we had. I have always left appointments and attempted to repeat back (in my head) what the discussions were and have never been successful in doing so. Sadly, there have never been adequate doctor follow up notes to assist. This was the first time I did receive notes and they matched very well to the conversation that occurred and help significantly in understanding how to move forward.

    — Michael M.
  • Office staff was friendly; after brief time in waiting room, the nurse who brought me to a room was efficient and professional. The waiting time in the exam room was not excessive. The exam by the PA was very thorough, and she explained the MRI, diagnosis and possible treatments. Very good experience overall.

    — Dave C.
  • Dr. Beecher was very confident about being able to fix my issue and took all the time I needed to go over all of the information and ask questions. He was great about catering to my specific needs, and overall gave me the best experience I could have hoped for in a scary time for me. I wish I could give him more than 5/5 stars!

    — Morgan C.
  • I had an absolutely amazing experience. Maria S and Dr Huffman were awesome! I had surgery on my disc in June and I am fully recovered and feel AMAZING and back to my normal self. Definitely recommend!!!

    — Kimber M.
  • As a patient, we need to have a trust in a competent doctor. In order to have that, their staff have to gain our trust. This doctor has excellent staff. From the greeting to the conversation while being examined, this staff has been excellent. My health is in very good hands. Thank you.

    — Deborah B.
  • I had a great surgery experience with Dr. George Huffmon. He took the time to explain and answer questions before my surgery making me feel comfortable. Post surgery, He took the time to visit me in my hospital room and explained the outcome and again answering all of my additional questions.

    — Tina V.
  • Greeted with a smile as always. Called back in a timely manner. Saw the PA and then met with Dr. Huffmon. Our first time meeting. I felt comfortable with him and trust his recommendations for further testing. My husband and I were impressed that he is trying to find answers to my issues and not just medicated them.

    — Muriel R.
  • This Atlantic Brain and Spine office is the most professional office I've ever walked into. Dr Hoffmon has saved my husband's life not once, but three times. He is a true wonder who looks outside the box! The staff are friendly and professional and his PA Maria is at the top of her game!

    — Susan K.
  • Dr. Thomas and his team are wonderful. I was told my surgery would not be a miracle cure, however, from the moment I woke up in recovery I knew I was well on my way to healing. I would recommend Atlantic Brain and Spine all day everyday.
