Dr. Jeffrey J. Roberts, MD

I want to thank all of the people at Orthopedic Associates, but especially my Dr. Jeffery Robert’s ! Because of his knowledge and experience, I’m able to be walking without pain again after surgery. I had an MRI at UH and had it read by there specialist saying nothing was wrong and when Dr. Robert’s examined the MRI he found the issues and showed me exactly what the problems where. I felt totally comfortable with his diagnosis.
So surgery was on a Thursday and I was able to function so well that I was able to work on that following Monday.
So again to Dr. Roberts thank you sir for fixing me!!!

Dr Roberts...very professional, knowledgeable and took the time needed for us to determine if surgery would be our choice...no pressures, no arrogant attitude. I would highly recommend him as a highly skilled surgeon. This review represents myself and my husband who have both used Dr. ROBERTS for back related problems.

I wouldn't recommend Dr. Roberts. While he successfully treated my back problem, I now had side effects that started immediately after recovery: will need catheter for the rest of my life (day 1 and 2 he saw me in the hospital with classic symptoms of caude-equinas-treatment is an emergency yet he didn't even do an MRI to verify. I have right leg "drop foot. Both hands have tremors. My left leg is numb and at times tingles. He accidentally cut into a "dura"-a protective covering for spinal nerves. Nerves could have had damage. A couple weeks later, he had to aspirate fluid build up. Now i'm in therapy ordered by a new neurosurgeon to hopefully walk without a cane.

Dr Roberts performed a lumbar surgery on me in September of 2016. About 6 months post-op, I began to experience pain which was quite severe and was different than the pain I experienced prior to the surgery. Dr Roberts would have an x-ray taken and say the surgery looked good, he didn't know why I was having this pain and come back in 3 months. Dr Roberts treated me as if i just wanted more pain medication and never presented me with any alternatives. i.e... An MRI or a CT scan or a referral for a neurologist or neurosurgeon. I really wish I had seen a neurosurgeon in the first place.
