Dr. Fick approached me in the hospital immediately after my mri and told me I was severely compressed and gave me a few minutes to make up my mind for decompression surgery. He lied in my hospital records, I did not have cauda equina syndrome and only a 28% slipped disk and I never required decompression surgery let alone a spinal fusion. He punctured my spinal cod and left me with severe nerve damage and refused †o go over my new MRI.

Dr Fink diagnosed me with a “viral infection “ he totally missed all the signs for ALS! All he cares about is fly fishing and eating at the Hublersburg Inn!

Very knowledgeable neurosurgeon but left himself get pushed out by other doctors that are leaving at the end of 2018 he abandoned all of his patients by leaving without following up and letting them know where they could get care he left 3 days after my surgery in the care of a crnp not that she's unknowledgeable but there's only so much she can do do not go to him as he allows himself to be pushed around and you may be left without care

Dr. Fick is a most knowledgable and attentive surgeon. I had a very difficult herniated disc which required hours of neurosurgery. Fantastic results. Completely thorough exam and follow up.
