  • “I can’t say enough good stuff about Dr. Tyndall! He’s the best! I had a discectomy and fusion on my neck in May. Then in September he did the same to my lumbar spine. I’ve been to many Drs for my pain and other symptoms. I was Told it was always something else. I found Dr Tyndall myself after doing research for a spine Specialist. I got in quickly. He listened and ordered x rays and MRI of my total spine. Found the cause of all my pain and numbness. He explained it all and answered every question I had! I have allergies and he took great care to be sure I’d not have any reactions to sutures and bandages. I’m great full for that! He’s easy to talk to and has a great sense of humor! Look him up! He’s worth it! Look him up you’ll be impressed!!”

  • “Dr. Tyndall is a great patient doctor as well as an accomplished surgeon. What I mean by this is that he listens. Takes time to understand what my issues and expectations were and then thoroughly explained the treatment options and WE came to the conclusion that surgery was the best. Before and after the procedure (during I was under) he was available, even had a bit of humorous discussion regarding beards. Follow up visit was great. Healing well, Therapy soon. Can't recommend highly enough. Thanks Doc!”

  • “Dr. Tyndall and his staff made me feel so comfortable about getting surgery done on my neck. I’ve had debilitating headaches/migraines for decades. I finally got to the point where I needed to be referred to a surgeon. After doing my research I found Dr. Tyndall to be the best choice. And I was absolutely correct. I had a M6 cervical disk replacement between C4 and C5. From day one of meeting Dr. Tyndall and his staff I knew I was in the right place. His staff answered all of my questions along with Dr. Tyndall walking me through the process and my options to come to a decision on what was right for me and my situation. My pain was managed so well after surgery and two weeks postop now I feel absolutely amazing. I have not had any headaches since surgery. I haven’t gone that long without a headache in decades. I have more movement and range of motion and no pain. I would highly recommend Dr. Tyndall and his staff. Don’t put it off any longer. Dr. Tyndall will absolutely help you make the right decision based upon your situation. Highly satisfied and grateful.”
