"I'm about 1 year out from a multiple level (C3-4 & C4-5) cervical disk replacement and I'm doing great. I went to Dr. Paul in the fall of 2023 I had neck and back pain for years, I tried chiropractors, physical therapy and many other aids for pain relief but nothing worked. After 20 years of dealing with chronic pain and headaches, it all came to a head when I lost feeling in my arm. Dr. Paul recommended surgery immediately. I was nervous, but Dr Paul was very confident we would see great results. He explained to me the process and what to expect during recovery. From day of surgery to end of recovery everything went according to plan. I'm 100% back to my regular activities and back to working with my hands. I am virtually pain free and have not felt this good since I was a teenager. My only regret was that I didn't go to him sooner. If you are in need of spine surgery trust Dr Paul and his team. "

"I first met Dr. Paul and his staff in December 2022 following a car accident that required orthopedic treatment. Dr. Paul is affiliated with Ortho CT, a practice that my family and I have entrusted in caring for our various orthopedic needs over the past fifteen years. Along with his professional background and experience, Dr. Paul's bedside manner was consistent with every appointment/conversation. An MRI revealed I required a lumbar fusion surgery. Dr. Paul provided the knowledge and confidence to myself and my family that I was making the best decision given the situation. In March 2023, Dr. Paul and his staff performed a successful surgery and after physical therapy, follow up appointments, periodic x-rays and support from their office during the past year, Dr Paul stated the surgery was a complete success. I would highly recommend Dr. Paul and Ortho CT."

"When I was waiting for my first appointment with Dr. Paul, two women sitting next to me started talking with me and when I said I will probably be having lumbar surgery with Dr. Paul they both started saying how much he had helped them with their surgery and how thankful they were. I have just completed my 5 month follow up and I thought back to what the women were saying. They were right, my surgery was an absolute success. I am completely pain free and my knee, which was very weak (falling down weak) due to compressed nerves in the lumbar, is now virtually back to 100% full strength. So, a very big thank you to Dr. Paul, I will always be grateful. And also a very big thank you to Lead Nurse Kristen, Front Desk Manager Shannon and the whole team, all of you guys have helped me through some very difficult times. Again, thanks to you all."

"I can’t thank or recommend Dr. Paul enough. He was with us every step of the way as my 14 year old daughter went from not being able to play the sport she loved because of a fractured vertebrae, through surgery, follow up and a return to play. His bedside manner and empathy exemplify good medicine at its best."

"As I am not a novice at serious medical procedures and operations I expected a painful, long recovery from a cervical spinal operation by a surgeon , Dr. Paul, who I had only met for a few brief visits before the operation. As it turned out, the post-op and recovery period have been pain free, no need for pain killing drugs, and successful. Dr. Paul and his staff have been attentive and respectful of me MY time. I am extremely pleased and thankful for Dr. Paul’s care. "

"Dr Paul is a rockstar. He restored hope for me which was dwindling very quickly. Ortho CT is a big practice but I always felt I had personal attention from a talented and compassionate doctor. If I didn’t wake up better than new, I woke up feeling new, pretty much like I was given my life back . Thank you Dr Paul !"

"Fantastic experience w/ Dr. Paul. I've been seeing/treated by him for over 6 years and during this entire time I was extremely pleased by how we worked together in treating my herniated cervical spine discs. Ultimately (after 6 years) I ended up needing to have two of my cervical spine discs replaced. I can't speak highly enough of the care and treatment provided by Dr. Paul and his team. Two months post-surgery and Im back to full activity levels w/ 100% pain eliminated and with full range of motion. Life changing!"

"I was so nervous and apprehensive about having back surgery, (laminectomy) that I put it off for the longest time. Gotta tell you it's the best thing I ever did. Was an outpatient, and was up and walking immediately afterwards. My sciatic pain is gone, recovery was minimal, and I'm back to doing everything like I did before! Dr Paul did a terrific job!! Thank You Dr Paul. Terrific surgeon!"

"Dr. Paul accepted my mother's case in 2021 when she desperately needed spine surgery after pinching a nerve. My heart shattered when I would slowly walk mom from doctor to doctor asking for an evaluation. Everyone told mom she needed to stretch and do physical therapy. But I knew my mom needed more than simply PT. I watched her heart drop when doctors did not agree with back surgery to correct the pinched nerve problem. I wish no other daughter have to experience what we went through. But when we saw Dr. Paul, he took us seriously. He immediately scheduled mom for surgery and made sure she was safely cleared for the procedure. Furthermore, he called me continuously to provide updates and ensured me mom was doing okay. Caregiving as a daughter for her mother is an experience I will never forget. Most importantly, working with Dr. Paul made this experience comforting, ensuring, and brought us hope once again. Thank you, Dr. Paul. "
