James R Stubbart

Thanks again Doc and staff see you soon to finish

Very knowledgeable staff, and attentive. I had an excellent experience!

Caring, Listen's to my needs, Repaired my back with success.

I cannot tell you enough how grateful I am for this man. Watching my husband suffer and then undergo a 6 hour operation that was life changing. Doctor Stubbart explained the process so you could understand it completely. He was attentive, compassionate and skilled. His team, the nurses, the entire experience at Blodget Hospital was incredible. Brian is recovering and has not felt this good in years. He had extensive neck surgery. I enjoyed how down to earth and how genuine Doctor Stubbart was. We are very blessed he was referred to us.

I found OAM’s Staff and Dr Stubbert to be through, and very concerned with my success through out my surgery journey.

Great experience from check in to check out. Dr Stubbart has an excellent bedside manner. He is thorough, attentive and always takes the time to make sure the patient has a good understanding of the current medical problem.

Dr. Stubbart is thorough, explains things well, listens to concerns, and is compassionate. His staff is outstanding. Wouldn’t go to anyone else.

Covers everything in easy to understand language.

Dr Stubbart and his staff where professional and easy to talk with.Dr. Stubbart manor with describing my diagnosis was straight forward and every informative.

I really appreciated Dr Stubbart listening to my concerns. He was professional and pleasant. I would recommend him.

Dr. stubbart took his time with me to explain things and even though I am not a candidate for surgery he did offer other options for me

Dr Stubbart was ready for our consultation, my injury background and test results in mind. Wasted no time. Asked me all the right questions, spoke directly and respectfully. Did a full exam. Wasn’t rushed into a surgical decision, was encouraged to look at all the contributing factors first. I felt very safe and well cared for. Highly recommend

Thorough and professional care. Listens well. Practical advice. Definitely not a "pill and bill" doctor and is not quick to rush into surgery.

Dr. Stubbart was very kind and helpful. He was very well informed of my medical history and presented a plan of how to proceed to address my problems to help me get better. He was professional and caring.

Everyone in this office is very helpful. Dr. Stubbort did fabulous job on my original surgery 17 years ago. Wear and tear on my back is resulting in new issues and he is the only one I feel confident in to resolve these issues. I would highly recommend OAM to anyone that needs help.

Dr Stubbart was very informative and made sure all my issues and concerns were addressed. As well, I felt like he was thorough with his examination and a provided a plan going for that I was satisfied with. The entire staff was kind, and professional.

No clue, I can’t get past the receptionist to schedule an apt. Jumped through all the hoops, hoping to at least get a chance to have a conversation. I’ve heard he is good, but I guess I’ll never really know.

Dr. Stubbart is AMAZING. He was extremely thorough and explained everything to me. I went to him as a second opinion and boy am I glad I did. He found something that was OBVIOUS and missed by the first surgeon I saw from a different location. I have had severe pain since August 21. I am a registered nurse and have a career of working closely with surgeons. I can honestly say he has the best bedside manner I have ever seen. He’s genuine. He cares. And he is sooo knowledgeable in everything I asked. Surgery is set and I could not be happier I am in his hands ???????? ???????? Dr. Stubbart is AMAZING.

I had nothing but positive experiences with OAM. But specifically Dr. Stubbart he is an amazing surgeon. I would recommend anyone needing spinal fusion surgery seek out Dr Stubbart and OAM not only for surgery but for all your orthopedic needs.

Dr Stubbard is professional and has a great manner. I really feel like he wants to do his very Best to take care of me. I couldn’t recommend him any higher

Dr Stubbart came highly recommended from others within the medical field and after my first meeting I understood why. Dr Stubbart was both professional and thorough while explaining things in layman terms. Dr Stubbart possesses strong interpersonal skills as well as active listening. He heard what I had to say and responded accordingly. I left his office feeling at peace, as well as comfortable and confident with my upcoming surgery. Highly recommend Dr Stubbart and Orthopaedic Associates of Michigan.

I would highly recommend Dr. Stubbart for spinal disk replacement. Dr. Stubbart took time to listen to me, he asked a lot of questions and allowed me to also ask a lot questions. He talked about options and then helped me decide what was the best decision with the best long term outcomes. Before surgery I could not lay down to sleep without being in constant pain. After surgery I feel as good as new! I truly could not believe it and I am incredibly grateful! The entire team at OAM was incredible and the outcomes are better than I could have ever imagined! Excellent customer service and outcomes! Happy to be back to normal!

Patient and explained medical problem and the proposed surgical solution well. Answered my questions. Evident that he had familiarized himself with my medical file prior to my appointment.

i was recently in Blodgett and Dr. Stubbart took the time to come in and see me short notice and all. He was so kind and caring and very helpful. I will forever be thankful for his care and hope to set up continued care there! sincerely Tammy Taylor

Dr. Stubbart portrays natural confidence and calmness as a spine surgeon, by exhibiting supreme commands in knowledge and critical thinking leading to diagnosis and treatment plan of my condition. I feel extremely optimistic and at ease leaving my care in his hands.

Dr. Stubbart did a t-12 Fusion on my back in October of 2006. I went in Friday night with a broken back and no feeling in my legs to getting up and walking with a walker on Monday afternoon. I have been back many times since and have always been treated with courtesy and respect. The staff is always very friendly and appointments are always on time. Many thanks to dr.

Dr Stubbert spends time with you as if he doesn’t have other patients waiting. He is an excellent surgeon with a fantastic bedside manner. Worth the wait!

Dr Stubbart’s practice is a finely tuned yet personal machine. I chose Dr. Stubbart after 4 other opinions around the state on my difficult problems and am convinced I would not be leading a normal life if I had chosen otherwise.

Excellent surgeon: takes time with patient before, during, and after procedure. Great spport staff (Angie) too.

Dr. Stubbert has an exceptional personality, very understanding, explained things well, answered all our questions and concerns. I trust his knowledge and judgement concerning my health. His staff is also very friendly and efficient.

Quality surgeon and staff. I recommend them with full confidence.

Because of the Plandemic I understand the need for safety and health issues. Nevertheless it is a shame people have to wait outside the building to be called in.

Dr. Stubbart treated my 90-year old mother with kindness and patience.

Very professional office. Dr. Stubbart takes the time to carefully explain your medical situation.

Dr Stubbard is very professional him and his team I highly recommend him and his staff

Super nice! Explained my situation and showed me on the xrays where my problem is. Don’t need surgery yet but when I do he’ll be my pick!

First class operation Dr Stubbard is the go-to man for back surgery and my estensive surgery turned out perfectly the staff is very knowledgable

He did everything for helping me get feeling better. I had back surgery. He did his miracle. So I refer anybody to him he takes good care of people.

He was focused, kind and patient. Didn't seem in a hurry, which is the case a lot with healthcare. Explained all of my options thoroughly. Easy to talk to. I could go on and on. Would definitely refer him to anyone.

My experience at this place has been excellent. Angie, Mike, and Dr. Stuart treated me with the greatest of respect and I felt very comfortable while in their care.

When I went in for my consultation, Dr. Stubbart and his nurse were very caring and they had knowledge in my spine. They both listened and explained things to me, I feel confident that they will help me through this!

Just met with Dr. Stubbart on Monday. Staff are welcoming. My husband is scheduled for surgery, possibly next week, so the verdict is still out.......but it looks promising :)

Dr. Stubbart did a small back fusion on me back in 2003, because of a car accident resulting in a burst fracture. Used part of my floater rib to fix it and went in through my side. Surgery was very successful. He is smart, talented, kind, and a Rockstar, as far as I'm concerned. Over 15 years later and my back still feels great. He is the best.

He is a very caring doctor. Takes his time to explain the situation that's going on and answers all your questions that you have. I couldn't be more pleased with his work that he has done for me. Need another surgery because I snapped a rod in my back but he is gonna fix me right back up. So glad to have him as a doctor.

Very professional! Appointment was on time. Dr Stuttart thoroughly explained my ailment and his proposed treatment and alternatives. He answered all of my questions and did not feel that I was being rushed. I am very comfortable letting him do my surgery.

Dr. Stubbart is an experienced surgeon, who in fact, didn’t need to do surgery on me. Let me explain. My accident occurred on 04/05/2020 during the start of Covid. I ended up with 7 fractured vertebrae along with multiple other injuries, due to part of a tree falling on me. Because the fractures included 2 cervical, 3 thoracic and 2 lumbar along with a broken tailbone, the surgery would have consisted of a rod down the middle of my back, which in turn would have left me with very limited mobility. During our conversations in the hospital, he took the time to talk with me & found out I was a very active person. Due to his years of experience, he felt that the best long term recovery for me would NOT be surgery, but to send me home in a clam-shell back brace and lay flat for 8 weeks, which I did. He jokingly said “it’s Covid, no one is going anywhere so you don’t have to feel bad about being in bed.” After 8 weeks, I was allowed to start sitting up & eventually get out of bed. At 12 weeks, the brace came off and the next 3 months were spent doing pool/physical therapy to strengthen my back & core muscles. My most recent follow-up with him indicated my back has healed on its own and I am able to to start doing the activities I love. I just thank Dr. Stubbart again for his wisdom & experience and in my case, choosing to not operate when he could have. I would highly recommend Dr. Stubbart and his staff at OAM!!

Dr. Stubbart has been very helpful to me. All of his suggestions in the past have helped me strengthen my back so that I have not had to endure pain or require any shots. And yes I am older than the notorious RBG —And still doing the exercises recommended by Dr. Stubbart and his staff.

Dr. Stubbart has been very thorough when showing me all my imaging. He explains every detail so I understand my condition and my options for repairing it. I have had 2 fusions from Dr Stubbart. Both were hacked very professionally.

Dr. Stubbart was very caring, thorough in his explanation of what I can expect with back surgery and answered all my questions. I feel very confident in having him as my surgeon.

Always appreciate Dr Stubbarts friendly and professional disposition. He has a good way of presenting the facts and helping us understand what's going on. He is not quick to cut ya open but try what's best. Thank you Dr S...

February 2021, James Stubbart, MD and I first discussed my spine issues. Dr. Stubbart is very down to earth regarding one on one conversations. He is very upfront, yet street guy friendly. He's not a high pressure salesman trying to make a sale. He will present the positive and the negatives regarding your specific case. I'm presenting this comment in June, 2021, so obviously, he is patient and allows you time for decision making. I have the utmost confidence in Dr Stubbart.

Dr Stubbart is one of the best neurosurgeons in Grand Rapids. He listens intently and explains things clearly. He holds his patients best interest as his first priority.

Thorough, has taken the time to examine all aspects of issye

Great doctor. Very thorough. Explains all options. Highly recommend!

Dr Stubbart took as much time as I needed during this visit. He had a well thought out plan for my condition and the steps he is taking will ensure sucess.

Doc gave me great info, others have failed me there. He was kind and LISTENED. I'd go there if y'all got neck troubles!!

Dr. Stubbart listens and values my input. I appreciate how thorough and knowledgeable he is. I’ve had surgery before by him and trust him completely.

Explains things well allows you to partner and decisions definitely is not one to rush in and do back surgery when he thinks it’s not going to help. REALLY explain any future ramifications you might have if surgery is an option for you

I am very happy with my choice of Dr. Stubbart for my surgeon. He and his PA, Michael, take the time needed to answer all of my questions and give me good information from which to make decisions. He and his staff are professional and thorough. I had a successful surgery.

My first visit was great! Dr. Stubbart and his whole staff appeared very organized , friendly and efficient. I think we've found a great team to help with my lower back issue :-)

I had 2 pretty complicated spinal surgeries. He is absolutely the best. Professional staff. Good communication. I feel so blessed that he performed my surgeries.
