Dear Sir / Madam,

A year ago, Dr. Hugh McPherson completed surgery on my back. I had my back fused at L4-L5 and L5-S1 with a decompression L3-S1. I had severe pathology and instability.I cant believe the difference I have experience since surgery. Dr. Hugh McPherson gave me quality of life back. I can play golf again and ride a bike or simply walk without pain. He is a great doctor, very conservative and always explains everything very well. His staff is top notch. I would refer this Doctors, Dr. McPherson, Dr. Louck , replaced my hip and Dr. In Sok Yi fixed my hand.

GREAT DOCTORS…GREAT PRACTICE! 303-699-PEAK

Dr. Hugh McPherson just completed an anterior C4-7 fusion on my neck 2 weeks ago. It went great!! I was in more pain before the surgery than after and I cant believe what a big difference there is already in my hands, arms and shoulders. I was worried about doing this, but am so very glad I trusted Dr. McPherson. He is conservative and explains everything well...great doctor and great practice. Trust these doctors, they are truly good at what they do.

I had a decompression and spinal fusion of L4 -5 four months ago. I was very pleased with my surgeon, Dr. Hugh McPherson. He listened and answered my many questions. The decision to have surgery was mine. He just gave me the options and his recommendation. I felt that my post op pain was well managed. My recovery went very well. I would and have recommended Dr McPherson to anyone considering this type of surgery.

I would like thank Dr McPherson's team for an absolutely outstanding spine surgery experience. Racheal scheduled the surgery and completed the paper work with two days notice. Dave conducted the pre-op consultation on equally short notice. Dr. McPherson gave a thorough explanation of the procedure and recovery as well as keeping my wife informed. The surgery was accomplished without any complications. My post surgery follow-up appointments were positively conducted and I was released from restrictions on the 90 day visit. Symptoms are gone and I am rapidly getting back into my normal pre surgery activities. Thank you McPherson Team!

I had lumbar spine fusion in March 2012.
I felt so cared for and my lumbar surgery was successful
I felt respected and treated with dignity
I can't tell you how that makes you feel when you choose someone to trust your body with. I have one body, you have hundreds but I felt like it was a wonderful fit with you three. I want Dr. McPherson and Dave to have a copy of this PLEASE!

I had back surgery in February of 2012. Dr. Hugh McPherson and his Physician, Dave Speidel completed my surgery and were instrumental in getting me back on my feet and gave me my life back. I was in severe pain and pretty much was unable to do what I was use to doing. They first tried physical therapy, but after that failed, surgery was deemed necessary. Dr. McPherson and his entire staff were nothing but outstanding and what they have done for me is fantastic. You cannot go wrong in having you problem checked out. Whenever I find out of a friend that is having back problem, I recommend that they check with Dr. McPherson. Thanks to the Dr and his entire staff.

I am going on 2 years after Dr. McPherson preformed a decompression on bone spurs between L3,4,5 and it is amazing! I was very worried about what would happen, but he explained everything and did actually what he had explained, not like alot of other doctors, who do not take the time to explain procedures. The recovery was fantastic and my life has improved so much I am out fly-fishing and hiking with NO pain! Great job! Thankyou every day!

Dr. McPherson and Dave Speidel PA-C are the best. I'd been having severe pain due to a herinated disc since Sept 2011. Because of the location of the herniation (C7-T1) the previous neurosurgeon would not perform the ACDF. Thank goodness my insurance changed Jan 1st. I met with Dave and Dr. McPherson Jan 4th. Surgery was performed Feb 7th. Home Feb 8th - no more nerve pain! Thank you both and everyone one your team at Sky Ridge! You are the best!

Wonderful doctor who actually took the time to explain my condition to me. Came to him for a second opinion after first doctor told me I would need a fusion. Dr. McPherson suggested we try injections first and I feel much better. Would highly recommend him
