Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great Doc.

Kind and caring doctor
Dr. Droessler has been my spine doctor for just a few months, but his kindness and compassion have made a significant impact on my care. Recently, I faced a last-minute trip cancellation due to back pain. He responded to my urgent request for a letter within just a few hours, enabling me to cancel my flight without facing a large fine. His assistant even reached out to confirm that I received the letter on time, demonstrating their commitment to patient care. I am truly grateful for Dr. Droessler's care and support!

Amazing Doctor!

He is an amazing provider and a genuinely kind person. Every visit, he takes the time to listen and is always patient and attentive. He quickly diagnosed the cause of my pain, explained everything clearly, and offered me different treatment options. He even follows up afterward to make sure I'm doing well. His knowledge and expertise are truly impressive, and I couldn't ask for a better doctor.

Best Spine Care in SoCal!
Dr. Droessler truly saved my life! I was dealing with debilitating lower back pain that just kept getting worse, even after countless physical therapy sessions. My internist suggested I see Dr. Droessler, and it was the best advice I've ever received. At my first appointment, Dr. Droessler recommended cortisone shots, and within just a few weeks, I was scheduled for procedure so no long wait for relief! When the day came, I was nervous, but the entire team was incredible, and Dr. Droessler was like a rock star in the OR. The results were nothing short of life changing, my pain is completely gone and I feel like a new person! I went from struggling to get out of bed to resuming all my normal activities, and I couldn't be happier. Thank you, Dr. Droessler, YOU ARE A LIFESAVER, and I'm your biggest fan!

Exceptional Care from Dr. Droessler
I visited Dr. Droessler earlier this year for chronic lower back and sciatica pain that had been bothering me for several months. I wasn’t sure what was causing it until Dr. Droessler thoroughly explained the issue. He promptly ordered an MRI, which confirmed a disc herniation. He used an anatomical model to show me how my spinal cord was affected and where the pain was coming from. During the treatment process, which mine included medication, physical therapy, and an epidural, Dr. Droessler kept checking in on my progress. Thanks to his excellent care, I’m now feeling much better. I’m truly grateful for his outstanding service.
