Excellent, thorough and compassionate spine surgeon

Dr. Braxton took time to understand my particular condition. He is thorough in his investigation of the problem, and is kind and compassionate in his care. I never feel rushed during an appointment, and he has performed my surgeries with skill. Highly recommended!
