I glad to read that dr. adamson has gotten better over the years. I think of him every now and then , when my back lets me know its still there. I wish his new people with back problems all the best.

In 2012, Tim Adamson referred me to Andrew Sumich oh, who gave me an epidural cervical below a multi fused neck. The needle was missed placed, and I was diagnosed a year later with adhesive arachnoiditis. The Doctor Who diagnosed me has written two books on adhesive arachnoiditis and has spent over 40 years in the field trying to help people who have suffered from adhesive arachnoiditis. These people at Caroline neurosurgery and spine can make $5000 off of a 3 second shot and they can blow you off if it doesn’t go right I called this great doctor three times when I had the epidural back in 2012 and he blew me off for me. Both doctors were called three times and they blew me off when I could’ve had IV treatment which could have could have prevented this condition from happening. It’s all about the money with these folks. Most of these post a phony it’s just a racket be aware.

Tim Adamson blew me off when he referred me to get non FDA shots below a multi fused neck. His assist did the shots and adamson wrote the script. 3 to 5 k for a shot . Read about adhesive arachronditis that's what Tim adamson did to me. Big money makers for the firm!! Read about adhesive arachronditis. Troll the computer FDA says no but adamson say,s yes? MONEY!!

I have been a patient for a little over a year and I am very pleased with the level of care that Dr. Adamson and his team provide. The wait can be long to see him but this probably because he never rushes while he is with you. He makes sure that he treats each patient the same. He takes the extra time with all of his patients so by the end of the day your wait time can be a while. I have had one surgery and the level of care from all of his staff is 5 stars. Even on weekends I have had them call me to assist with any issues that I have had. What negative reviews I have read do not hold much value. If you won't follow his advice or course of treatment than can't really put that on him. Of course he released a patient that wouldn't follow his advice. There is only so much a doctor can do without the patients cooperation. Trust in Dr. Adamson and you will be very happy with the outcome.

I have been seeing dr adamson a year, since he had done lower back surgery. I feel worse and was no help to the rest of my back. I got released and I am not a happy camper.

He went to medical school so he could refer people have not FDA approved shots below multi fused neck. Look up adhesive arachronditis. He sent me to his injection mill that destroyed a life, business. His assist injection dr sumich administered than he and sumich blew me off. Look up this disease it's caused by people like this why? MONEY! That's why Tim went to medical school do be this person . His family must be proud...

Tim adamson referred me to andrew sumich for non fda. Shots into spine . Sumich did riskiest shot that left me adhesive ara chronditis. It ruin my family, business and those who were counting on me. His is evil tim you went to medical school to referr people to get epidurals below multi fused necks. You are cutting edge. My car mechanic has more humanity in his pinky then you and sumich have . I was active in my church. ICUs,emergency rms why? So you could make 5000 for the firm. Huge money maker these injection mill are for your firm. I wish I had no insurance so I never would have met paul tsakakis, andrew sumich and you. My entire family has been destroyed. Read about adhesive arachronditis when you are on your crusade. Pure evil . No better then tsakakis.

Tim referred me andrew sumich to administer non FDA approved shots below a multi fused neck that was a horrible. Sumich stuck his needle into my spine and gave me adhesive arachronditis a brutal disease. It destroyed family and business. Shots make 3000 to 5000 dollars. Terrible people. He probably with sumich are Christians and love god what a phoney person.

Dr. Adamson was my 5 th opinion. It did take over a month to get an appointment, but if all goes according to plan , the wait will have been worth it. I have had several doctors advising me to have a fusion. Dr. Adamson was very nice and ordered another test to make sure , but believes I can be a candidate for MED. I really appreciate the fact he was willing to try and help me in covering all my options instead of just jumping the gun. The only complaint would be that I had to wait so long to get an available apt ,but if this works it will have been worth it . Hopefully saving me a fusion..........
