The doctor looked like he hadn't slept in days. Face needed to be shaved. He had on pants that was two sizes too large. No belt and he was holding the pant up by hand. I got a little concerned when he walked in. I had to get out of my own head. He was polite knowledgeable and kindly shared information and his contact information so I don't get lost in the system again and referring me to and infection control doctor as an extra step of care. I will have surgery with him because I trust his knowledge and care. I prefer the professional look from my doctors.

Yes, Dr. John Vender has been my doctor for going on, I don't know, five years. He's done three brain surgeries on me, and he is an excellent surgeon, and he is a super, super neurosurgeon.

He has a wonderful bedside manner. but trying to get an appointment with him y'all would not even listen to my primary care physician that called personally to try to get me an appointment with my doctor and it took over a month and a half for me to get my appointment with my doctor that has done three brain surgeries on me and he wasn't happy and I wasn't happy at all either that it took me that long to get through to him to get my

This 6 week follow up neurosurgery appt was originally scheduled 4 months after surgery after months of phone calls and emails from me to the office and/or surgeon. These were all documented. I found my way to Orthopedics for this appt, though where on the second floor of the medical office building was NEVER communicated to me. I waited over an hour to see Dr. Vender and only talked to him for around 5 min. Scheduling and communication in this hospital needs to be better.
