Dr. Roth is extremely conservative when it comes to opting for surgery. He is very thorough at gathering medical imaging and exploring many other options to address the cause of pain, disc degeneration, and bone spurs that continue to plague my spine. The only drawback to his plan is the slow process of trying various methods to find an alternate procedure that would successfully cure my pain and the suffering I must endure in order to avoid a surgical fusion that I can never undo. So, Dr. Roth always has my best interest at heart, never for his own gain.

From his medical staff and office personnel everything was professional. Dr Roth did 3 of my back surgeries including a fusion that has stayed in place over 10 years. My quality of life is better at 68 than is was in my 50s thanks to Dr. Roth.

Truly the finest physician in Dr. Roth whose clarity and in depth experience are incredible. Nurse practitioner Alison Barria is likewise a knowledgeable professional whose deep knowledge also contributes to an excellent experience. Couple that with the friendly staff and you have one of the best practices I’ve ever visited.

Dr. Roth and his Team are outstanding. Whenever I'm in the office, I am made to feel as if I'm the only patient in the office which of course is not true, but their concern for my well-being was evident.

I had cervical spine surgery by Dr. Roth, and I was up and home the next day. The gentleman is not only a gifted surgeon, but a kind man who spends whatever time it takes to understand my problem and to explain what needs to be done. This is just unheard of in healthcare today.

Lastly, I want to recognize his staff, especially Michele Lugo, whose cutomer service skills are exemplary. Everyone of his staff were professional, attentive and kind.

Just wanted to add a vote of confidence for Dr. Roth as a knowledgable and supportive doctor. I felt very confident in his thoughtful care and the education he gave me about my back, which has lead me on a journey of understanding and healing. After meeting him, I read his two books to follow up on his philosophy and they're highly recommended. Thank you to him and his team in the office.
