Steven James

Dr James is very professional and personable. I was referred by my oncologist. I especially loved the fact that he was not knife happy! It was scans and MRI to diagnose the lymphoma in my spine not an open biopsy (surgery). Instead I went straight to radiation oncologist without having to heal from a surgery before treatment.

Run as fast as you can to a different doctor. This doctor was rude, obnoxious and condescending. He wouldn't let me finish a sentence. Therefore he was unable to help me. Doesn't seem knowledgeable. I will find a different doctor in this field.

Most unprofessional doctor I have ever experienced in the medical field. Rude and disrespectful.

I have seen Dr. James since 2004 and he has ALWAYS taken the very best of care of me and has the VERY BEST bed side manners!! Love this Dr!!!

I absolutely think Dr. James is great..I have been a patient of his for several years...he also has been the doctor of several of my friends and they feel the same way...I would highly recommend him to any one. LorineWard Martinsville, Ind

Worst experience with a doctor in the medical field I’ve ever had. Rude and unprofessional, self centered and cared about himself not the patient.

Had surgery 3 months ago. Dr James and his staff are truly a God send and I would recommend him to everyone. I now have my life back. Thank you Dr James and staff.

I have had 2 separate spinal surgeries, he and his staff are the absolute best. He will tell you plainly if he believes he can help and what the risks are.

This punk was very disrespectful to me . Didn't go over x-rays or MRI results . Asking questions and answering them himself . Didn't even address my pain . My case is workers comp and he was so prepared to send me out the door I didn't even finish first page of stupid paperwork .the waiting room was full but somehow I was called back in three minutes . I wouldn't recommend this pissant to anyone .

I've been in Dr. James' care for many years. He is absolutely THE BEST. Even though my last name is the same, I'm not actually kin to Dr. James. But I jokingly call him "Bro". The whole team at Goodman Campbell Brain & Spine is wonderful. Over the years if I come across anyone who is needing spinal care to go to Goodman Campbell. Because they are the best in Indianapolis!

Saw him multiple times and he never showed me what he was seeing on the x-rays and CT scans. I was very glad I switched to another surgeon who reviewed those with me.

I was experiencing very bad pains in my back and legs. I tried physical therapy but didn’t work. Turns out I had a herniated disc. I couldn’t even pick up my 1 yr old and 3 yr old. I had surgery 3 months ago and because of Dr James, his assistant Jamie and amazing staff at G.C. the surgery was successful and now I am able to pick my kids up and have my life back. Thank you Dr James have recommended him to everyone.

Rude and not very professional.

You aren't even worth a star. You treated me like I was beneath you and like you knew everything about me and my health history...don't tell me I shouldn't be on disability when it does not have anything to do with you nor why I am here to begin with. Then you had the audacity to act like I had no reason to be there when my Dr referred me to your practice for a structural issue with my hip...which causes me severe pain at time and effects the nerves in my leg and pain. You are a pompous ***!!

Dr James called me a liar and said I wasn’t in the pain I claimed to be. He also disregarded my MRI results and said nothing was wrong with me! I went to him for help and instead left in tears. He was so rude and condescending. I wouldn’t recommend him to anyone.

I have a 15 year relationship with him after 2 back surgeries and a spinal stimulator being put in 4 years ago now I have leg pain that is making it difficult to work... I was told loose weight & increase my activity and it will help!! While no doubt there is truth to his recommendations meanwhile I still have serious issues going on that I felt was being ignored. I went to ER prior to visiting him and they did a CT Scan that 4 Dr's reviewed confirming I have collapsed spine, arthritis. Nothing!

He was dead set against physical therapy with me at any point after surgey. He released me without discussing my degree of pain with me. I was an invalid until my Personal MD prescribed some medication and gave me a referral to physical therapy. PT has helped me very much so far. I have to fault Dr James for being opposed to physical therapy! Being released from his care while still needing pain meds was, in my view, abusive.

Dr. James sincerely tried to find my issues. I had a discectomy years prior and have developed a lot of arthritis. Experiencing back and neck pain, neurotic in nature. He did not want to go in and just operate to try and relieve some of the pain because was not sure what the root cause was. Some of his associates made me feel like I was seeking pain meds and that was very upsetting. Pain was real and still is but something I must live with. .

Dr. James has the best bedside manners that I have ever run across in Indy. He is very kind and compassionate. He shoots straight with you and let's you know what is expected of you to get the best results. His office staff has also been one of the best, always going the extra mile to get the answers or information we needed, and in a very timely manner!! I so appreciate all of their help.

I felt like my issues were not address. He cut me off when I was address my back and pain issues and how the VA treated me.He reminded me that the VA told me that I needed to lose weight and do some rehab in which I might or might not get better.I told him about me losing 30 pounds on my current diet and that it is hard for me to get around and to work out due to the amount of pain I am in even with the current weight loss. He told me that I could still get to the refrigerator ok, I can work out
