This Dr. did not even look at my paperwork and totally dismissed my MRI results once he found out I was hurt at work. Then he proceeded to tell me most people have back pain once they are middle aged and made sure to let me know that back problems should not stop people from working. He is a total workmans comp Dr., even though I was a private pay patient and not sent by workmans comp, and already knew my results from my MRI. He called a very serious condition a sprain instead of a cyst on the spine and bulging disks which he never even noticed even though an orthopedic specialist had sent me there. Quick in, quick out and totally unconcerned.
Needing a good Neuro. Mine retired and not really satisfied with his replacement. Also husband's Gastro dr retired. Any reccommendations for either of these?

Dr. Amit Arora, 256-881-4112 for neurological issues concerning the brain (strokes, Alzheimer's, etc.) If you need a neurologist for back surgery, I recommend Dr. Rhett Murray, 256-533-1600.
I need a back pain doctor who doesn't just write scripts. Mine has gotten to where it's interfering with my everyday life and I want it fixed- surgery whatever - suggestions??
I need recommendations, please....we really need a VERY GOOD neurologist here in the Shoals area. We have one in Birmingham, but we need a local one here to follow up with. I would appreciate your recommendations. Thanks!

Dr Joel Pickett in Huntsville neuro and spine center 256-533-1600. He is awesome Trisha. Praying for Matt and your family.
Yes, Dr Murray he is part of the spine center. He did my neck and back surgery. For him surgery is the last resort. I did great for both of them. I highly recommend him. His office no is 256-533-1600.
