I would not consider anyone else! Dr Easton has stood by me for years. He has done 4 surgeries over the past 14 years. I dread the day he retires!

Dr Easton is very busy but he ALWAYS took the time to answer my questions and I never felt rushed by him or his staff. He fixed my back after it was messed up at another hospital. He saw me after surgery and even came in to see when I had a breathing problem after surgery. I did not have any of the bad issues others complained about. My care and post operative treatment were excellent!

I have no idea if he is a good surgeon-I met him once,he ordered tests and then I have never heard from him.His staff never asks how are you feeling-this includes his "nurse" The office has rules like "you have to meet with the PA not him" he doesnt call you back ie no return phone calls--and you cant get an appointment with him "because do you realize how busy he is" I think he loves to operate and genuinely feels he is the best-which he could be----but buyer beware-I believe you either will love this doctor if you are able to navigate the inner sanction or particularly because of his insensitive staff- a terrible experience-I shudder to think what would occur if I had a negative outcome-I not sure he or his staff would be there-based on that I would caution all--and give him and his staff an overall rating of 1

I think Joanie Erica and Rachel are great. I think there should be more receptionists cause the hold time is ridiculous!!! I think Roxanne is really great and super efficient and so is sue dr easton's nurse. But like they say in front of every good man is a great woman or two!!! Lol and as for my friend. He is the best doctor anyone could ever ask for. I have had severe injuries and most of the test didn't show how severe they were but he always believed me.cause he knows I'm a tom boy and can usually tolerate severe pain.plus he knows how hard I try to follow doctors orders.i never imagined I would have so many severe operations but I'm really glad he was there to put my broken body back together again. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all of you for not just doing a job but being the best at what you do!!! Thank you all for helping me to start getting my health back still have a way to go but the future looks much brighter now!!!

There is no doubt I would not be the person I am today, if it was not for Dr. Easton. My back damage was severe by the time I was lucky enough to get Dr. Easton on my side. He was so friendly, so personable, and kind. He even went the EXTRA MILE to make sure he hand stitched my incision so he did not destroy my tattoo. Most other surgeons would have thrown some staples in and went home. I see comments on here about not getting to see him or hear from him after surgery. In fact, after the hospital staff forgot to add one of my prescriptions to my discharge documents, Dr. Easton personally tracked me down at my parents house to make sure I got the prescription immediately. The few times I needed questions answered during my recovery, I always got swift return calls from his staff. There is NO DOUBT, I would have never been able to carry my son to term and actively take care of him if it was not for Dr. Easton. He is truly a hero in my book. Thank you Dr. Eaton for everything!

I am an easygoing person. I wish I wasn't writing this. Dr Easton is very skilled and very good at charming his way into his patients trust. To his defense, my spine was very damaged(nerves almost black?). Yet he promised, "I will not abandoned you". Which is ironic because that is exactly what he did after surgery. When his skills were not glorified by me nor my family(still not fused)his staff found every reason to blame me. I have still not heard from him directly about what went wrong and what "HE" will do to fix it. His staff, who is no longer polite or even respectful to me, in my opinion, is just looking for a way to dump me as a patient. In any other job a person would have to be, at least, held accountable to talk to their clients/customers about managing what steps are needed to rectify the situation. Yet it seems Dr Easton is above that now. I would love to give him the benefit of the doubt, but he doesn't give me that opportunity. He is untouchable and I am in pain.

My Mother had a back surgery from another area doctor. He almost crippled her. There was zero compassion with this doctor. Two months of absolute pain after the first surgery. Dr. Easton came in and re-did this botched surgery. His compassion was outstanding. He is a surgeon that most of us would hope to have, which makes him busy, thus his staff assists. That's what they do. I am very thankful to Dr. Easton for saving our Mother. May you be so lucky to have him as your doctor.
