Dr. Eric L Rhoton

trouble

Dr. Rhoton performed a very difficult craniotomy on me on April 14th, 2020. it saved my life. he came and visited me in the hospital while I was recovering and showed such care and compassion to both me and my family through the whole ordeal. I am infinitely grateful for him and his incredible expertise.

Had cervical fusion and low back disc surgery, great outcomes. He is the best.

This gentleman is a strait shooter diagnosed my problem was right on with it an gave me a course of action great job dr rhoton

Dr.Rhoton gave me back a quality of life. I WAS a gimping "old lady," but after surgery, I was like new! I cannot even begin to recommend him highly enough. LUCKY are those who receive his services.

Years Back Dr. Rhoton worked on a protruding disc, it was wrapped on a spinal nerve, a very delicate procedure and intricate to say the least, Dr. Rhoton and his team performed this at the Mission Hospital , That was almost 20 yrs ago, From that day forward by back problems were solved. I found the Dr. to be a real hero in this part of my life. We have just moved back home here and wanted to reach out to thank him. Also I am sorry to hear that Mission has gone so down hill. It was the cornerstone of the health of this community . Times Change,

The office is run like a corporation - cold and impersonal. Compassion is not a strong point among the staff. My first experience with Dr. Rhoton was for a cervical vertebra fusion. Dr. Rhoton's staff apparently forgot I was supposed to have surgery that day and arranged Dr. Rhoton's schedule so that I ended lying in the pre-op room for over six hours. More recently, I had an appointment to discuss why I am still in excruciating pain on Dr. Rhoton's schedule for almost two months. On the day of my appointment, the scheduler called and canceled (left me a voice mail). I was so distraught, I could not comprehend what the scheduler's reason was. I tried to call back and beg for help. I was only able to leave a message. No one returned my call. I believe I am getting this uncaring, dismissive treatment from the staff because I am a veteran referred by the VA and not a four-star patient.

This Doc is a busy guy for good reason. He's good at what he does. Since I was new to the area and my cervical spine condition was fairly complex, I had to do a little research to find the right neurosurgeon. Though it was a little tough to make the initial appointment, the surgery process that followed was detailed, empathetic and very informative throughout. His PA's are both first rate and equally impressive. Post op 1 month - So far so good. Post op followup was good and progress continues. Rarely do I give 5 stars on anything but this time it is deserved.

Dr. Rhoton successfully removed two brain tumors (non-cancerous) that we’re developed at birth.

Good thorough doctor for my husband's brain tumor.

I walked with excruciating Sciatica.I had been to e.r s on Thanksgiving,and day after and received no Help.I was lucky enough to get an appointment with his P.A Matthew.Long story short I received telephone call within a couple of hours from Dr Rhoten,I could tell he was on his car and provably on way home,due to hour. We spoke and told my situation,understanding he was extremely busy,and expecting with much anxiety, that it would be a month that I was going to live with a pain that allowed 1 no Ute for Shower.I received A call following Friday from his office asking if I wanted to have Surgery. the following Sunday.I have utmost respect for Dr Rhoten,and his group.I will leave at that.I am a Nurse and I am not easily led by Drs.This Gentleman is an exception I walked with excruciating Sciatica.I had been to e.r s on Thanksgiving,and day after and received no Help.I was lucky enough to get an appointment with his P.A Matthew.Long story short I received telephone call within a couple of hours … More

Dr. Rhoton is a true craftsman. His staff is excellent. Performed my cerivical discectomy. Healing was fast. Hope I never need him again, but if I do, I know where to go!

This staff has been rude and uncaring, and Rhoton has canceled my surgery consultation appointment twice, with the latest telling me the next available time is months out and that they would try to me get back in. No return call for days now. It's just very poorly managed. I'm looking for a new surgeon. My experience has not been good. Rhoton may be a good surgeon, but their overall business approach and patient interaction seems very poor. In summary for me: its a cold, uncaring turnstile for churning patients through. I hope your experience is better.

I was paralyzed by a Chiropractor and Dr Rhoton got me in, visited me in the Hospital, made sure my family was taken care of and operated on me the next day. He also scheduled an MRI in Waynesville to speed up the process of my operation and it made all the difference in the world. Since the surgery, I have never had a problem of any kind. What a wonderful , great, professional, extremely knowledgeable and treats everyone like family. I was honored to have Dr Rhoton as a Doctor and friend.
