Spine Surgeons - Sarasota, FL

"Dr. Meinhardt and his staff were sensational! I was in very serious pain when I went into my surgery, and zero pain when I woke up. I had a C-6 & C-7 spinal fusion procedure and I was completely satisfied with every step of the process. Dr. Meinhardt and his team were spot on with the details of the recovery as well. A+ for a sensational group of healthcare professionals! "

"he's very personable ,very smart, felt very comfortable talking to him , highly recommend"

"Dr Glasser was very Pleasant in the office. When I initially met with him he was highly confident that he could help me and minimize my back pain. The day of the surgery came, he came in for about a minute, went over what was to be done, and didn't see him again for 9 months. Was always handed off to his nurse who has NO bedside manor or compassion or Josh his PA who is very arrogant and rude. While the doctor was pleasant my back pain was NOT resolved and all but one appointment post surgery was with the nurse or the PA Josh. The office staff is terrible. While the checkout staff are very friendly and helpful, the medical staff are not at all. My last appointment was with Josh and was told "There's nothing we can do for you the Fusion took" and walked out of the exam room and did not return. Great, the joint fused but my back pain is as bad not as before surgery. I'm back to taking my MRI CT and X-Ray films and reports to other surgeons for second opinions. and of course no one will say anything about work done or options. Disappointed is an understatement"

"We arrived to the office for my wife to have her back looked at as a follow up from the ER. She filled out paperwork that was requested by staff and we waited with masks on. When we got up after being called we where asked if we had the Covid-19 shot. We both said “No.” The lady asked us to have a seat and wait. About 10 or 15 minutes went by before she called us back up. She took our temps and let us in. After waiting for Doctor Mayer he walked in without knocking. He asked my wife how she was feeling before asking her how old she was. He then questioned what she did for a living before raising his voice and stating “Why didn’t you get the covid shot?” My wife said “I elected not too.” He then turned to me asking have I been vaccinated. I told him no. He’s crossed his arms and stood at the backside of the room. My wife replied “ Nobody said it was requirement to be seen.” Doctor Mayer responded with “ Its not the office it’s me! Some how you slipped through the. back door!?” At this point my wife was upset from being discriminated against and we informed him”Clearly you are uncomfortable and we are leaving now.” The sad part is he will probably try to bill the insurance for this visit and write that this was refusing treatment. He was aware before we stepped back we didn’t have shots and could have refused before we ever got back there. We did not feel comfortable with this individual conducting possible back surgery on my wife. As far as I’m concerned he failed as a doctor and a professional."
