I've been dealing with neck pain for years. I've several doctors but just wasn't comfortable with what they were telling me, so I google Orthopedic Dr in my area and found Dr. Sameer Mathur. I read the review and was very impressed with the out come from his previous patients so I schedule an appointment. The visit went well he review my previous MRI and Xray's explained what he would in detail and also added more regarding my conditions. The surgery was a success, the pain is gone and the recovery is going well. I want to Thank Dr. Mathur, his Staff and the Staff at Rex Hospital for taking such good care of me before and after my surgery.
