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.

Worst facility I ever visited in my entire life.
I have no words how difficult I have been feeling and my visit is definitely useless. He just came for less than 3 mins and not even listen to my problems and questions and told to talk to his assistant. The assistant can't even answer anything. Never suggest to go here. Looks commercial.

From the minute I walked in I had a great experience. Everyone there is super nice and welcoming. I was very nervous about visiting an orthopedic surgeon, but Dr. Stephen Courtney made sure I was comfortable and explained everything in detail. I had undergone surgery and then recommended some physical therapies as well which is working wonders for me. I couldn’t be happier with the results!!!! So ready to be fit and fine again!

Dr. Stephen Courtney is a lifesaver! He attended to me during an emergency as I was having terrible neck pain, bawling my eyes out. Just 2 days ago I had my surgery and it is great. Very good job done by the doctor. He was very concerned about my comfort during the process. I also felt that I was in good hands. I am self-conscious about my health but he made me feel totally relaxed, no embarrassment!

Visiting Dr. Stephen Courtney was a great decision. He not just helped me to get rid of the pain but also discussed what caused the problem. I was really scared in the beginning, but the way I was guided by the doctor was something special. What an experience. The staff members working at this clinic are great as well. Never for once did I feel uncomfortable during the treatment. I have no more discomfort or pain.

Dr. Stephen P. Courtney is a great spine surgeon. I visited him a few months back. The back pain was affecting me for a long time. I was not able to walk or even participate in work activities. Thanks to my general doctor. He advised me to get in touch with Dr. Stephen. Consulting him changed everything. The service was great. I never faced any problem. The entire assistance felt absolutely seamless. I have no more pain. The staff working at his clinic are great as well. Highly recommended.

I was suffering from back pain for quite a long time. It will not be an exaggeration to say I was desperately looking to get the best treatment under the hands of a well-renowned orthopedic surgeon. But, finding a doctor that will strive to meet all my requirements was pretty hard. At last, I came across the name Dr. Stephen Courtney. After undergoing surgery under his safe hands, I can say that he is one of the best orthopedic surgeons in Plano, TX, I have ever met. In addition to that, the doctor and all the staff members were very professional, kind, and friendly, and laid emphasis on providing convenience and comfort. Now, I can absolutely do all my daily activities again and the pain is almost gone.
