Edward H Saer III

Dr. Saer is a wonderful physician. He performed spinal fushion on me in 2015 & I had immediate relief. I recently visited him with another back issue & I fully trust his expertise. Couldn’t be any more pleased!

Dr Saer is an extremely competent and experienced spine physician/surgeon. When I saw him, he took time and answered my questions. I feel more secure having had his advice. Incidentally, he operated on my elderly mother several years ago, and she had an excellent result.

Dr. Saer has always been friendly, courteous, and professional. He is an expert in his field, and I highly recommend him to anyone.

It's sad to read poor reviews, but negative things happen. Dr. Saer did both of my spinal surgeries and I couldn't happier with the results. Being able to do just about anything normal has changed my life. I did have some bad experiences, but when we are in pain nothing is good until we feel better. The long waits were exhausting and trying to get pain meds when there are doctors and patients abusing meds and dying makes it difficult. Plus, I'm not a fan of meds since they only slightly numb things while making pain worse when stopped. Studying Psychology I learned its because our bodies stop making natural pain killers once we start taking meds for pain. This also causes addiction as we need more meds to make up for what our body has stopped making. Anyway, Arkansas has better orthopedic doctors than Colorado hands down. I was told there was a 50% chance I'd never walk again if I opted for surgery when my discs ruptured in my back. Because of that news I tried to commit suicide when I was in Colorado, several times. Living in constant pain changes you, and not for the better. I'll never forget Dr. Saer telling me he couldn't believe I was told there was a 50% chance I'd be permanently disabled. I cried the whole way home. Dr. Saer improvement the quality of my life. I still have degenerative disc disease, but at least I have hope now.

I saw Dr Saer for a neck and hands issue. The staff was very friendly and professional. Dr Saer took his time and listened to my concerns. He then made a plan to figure out what is going on with me. I would highly recommend Dr Saer and Ortho Arkansas.

Dr. Saer is very kind, caring and knowledgeable. He performed back surgery on both my husband and my mom. I was impressed then as well as now. He will get to the root of your problem.

Dr. Saer did a thorough examination. He unhurriedly answered our questions and explained things completely.

I’ve been going to Dr Saer since 2000 at 50 years old. Had 3 fusions (now fused T10-L5) due to scoliosis.I’ve been pain free for 7 years and know my limitations. He listens and explains and will be the first to tell you to try other options before surgery, but will do surgery as last resort.

Although I am a new patient with Dr Saer I was more than pleased with my first visit. He was very compassionate, was very patient with me and listened to all my concerns and made me feel very comfortable and not rushed. I have great respect and Trust in Dr Saer. The waiting time in the clinic was very short and the entire experience with his staff and him were wonderful. I am extremely grateful that I was referred to him. He was very thorough in his exam. I am two and a half hours away from his office but it was worth every mile. My waiting time at the clinic was very short and all the staff was very professional. I would definitely recommend Dr Saer. I left his office with a new feeling of Hope and I'm looking forward to my next visit after my MRI to discuss the plan for treatment for my condition. He is very knowledgeable and I absolutely Trust him as my doctor with his decisions.

Dr. Saer and his staff are awesome! I cannot say enough about how thorough he is. I have never once felt rushed which is a rarity nowadays with doctors. I would highly reccomend. Highly!

Dr Saer has done 2 very detailed surgeries for me at levels L5S1, L4,5 and L3,4 Thoroughly answers all questions to my satisfaction. Shows compassion And concern for his patients

I had 2 surgeries with Dr. Saer, one in 2011 & another in 2013; both were a success. This Dr. was the 1st to tell me that the chances of me being in a wheelchair for the rest of my life was minimal. After I healed, I have had less pain, but it wasn't without hard work. I take better care of my body, and focus on spinal health as a way of life; many people are surprised I had 2 spinal surgeries. I live in another state now & am willing to go back to Dr. Saer for any of my spinal needs. I also recommend CBD oil, I had to make my own back then, but I did use it before & after my neck surgery in 2013 & it helped me push through the pain to make my muscles stronger. I have a new life now, & when I have pain it is usually because I reverted back to bad habits like poor eating, not doing my yoga, & lifting with the back & not the knees. Surgery or not, once your spine is messed up you better prepare for life changes. Three bone graphs & 2 metal plates, but watch me do a full spinal twist!

I had major back surgery and when I went back for check up, I had to see nurse practioner. That was 3 years ago and I haven’t seen Saer since. I have had constant pain and Dr Saer let me know he did his job and was finished with me, right after surgery.

I had surgery in 1998 at Baptist Health and Dr. Saer performed a spinal fusion at L4/L5. Although the healing process took quite a while I was able to eventually return to the workforce. I am a full time RN. I was 38 when the surgery was done and I am now 59.

I had a lumbar, sacral fusion done. I didnt know he was putting pelvic rods in too. I went in weighing 120 lbs and had a nice flat stomach. After surgery I looked 6 months pregnant. I went back to him and explained it to him and he had the nerve to put his hand on my shoulder and said "maybe you're eating better since you have less pain. I wanted to throat punch him. My left side is deformed now and I had to buy bigger pants because of his surgery. He messed up and won't admit it.

If you want to pay for someone who couldn't care less about your pain then go see Dr. Saer. His bed side manner is definitely lacking and taking calls in the middle of visiting with a patient is rude. It was not a life or death call as I heard part of it from the hall. Also instead of helping me find pain relief options (no I was not seeking pain meds not that he even suggested and am unable to take NSAIDS) he pretty much told me there's nothing I can do but chronically hurt. The only plus side is that his staff were very kind and courteous. If you want to pay for someone who couldn't care less about your pain then go see Dr. Saer.

I have a review. What sort of doctor does a major spine surgery on a 70 year old woman and leaves her in major pain and crying nearly every night!

Dr. Saer has performed 2 surgeries on my, one cervical and one lumbar. He is an excellent doctor, showing concern and compassion, while being very knowledgeable and explaining everything in a way that is easy to understand. Be prepared for LONG wait times, but he is worth the wait. His nurse and assistant and both very helpful. Don't be surprised if you see his assistant before you see the Dr, but that is not a bad thing as it gives Dr. Saer more time with patients when they most need it.
