Patient Reviews
May 02, 2017
Dr. Underwood made what I considered a potentially traumatic, but necessary, procedure an absolutely life changing event. The discomforts after surgery were nothing compared to the relief from pain provided. Dr. Underwood is very caring and exceedingly competent, with none of the arrogance one might expect to find in a surgeon of his caliber. He is honest and straightforward, and expects no less from his patients. Dr. Underwood genuinely cares about improving his patients' quality of life.
