“After five weeks of back pain, I had surgery. Immediately after surgery, I had no pain. After two weeks, I am still pain-free.”

“I had been dealing with chronic back pain for many years and saw two other surgeons who said they could not help me. I decided to try Heartland Orthopedic Specialists in Alexandria and was overwhelmed when Dr. Lindley told me he could help me. I am 51 years old and was using a walker to get around. I had been dependent on opioids to deal with the pain. The people at Heartland Orthopedic Specialists and Douglas County Hospital were amazing. I didn't think I had another chance, but I was wrong. I am now able to get around, and the nerve pain is gone. As of this post, I have been off all opioids for more than a year. Thank you, Dr. Lindley, you made every difference in my life when I thought there was no hope left and to all the staff who supported me and encouraged me to walk, walk, walk.”

“I have to travel 100 miles for my appointment/treatment. I always arrive early and am always in early. If I need another test of any type, they always try to accommodate me so I don’t have to make another round trip. Consultation, treatment, and surgery are performed professionally and in a caring manner. I highly recommend Dr Lindsey and his staff. I also received excellent care during my hospital stay.”

“The whole staff at Heartland Orthopedics from the receptionist to nurses, xray and doctor was totally great. I was seen in a very timely manner. The staff were very respectful and courteous. Dr. Lindley is very knowledgable. I felt like he genuinely cared. He took the time to answer all my questions and to discuss my medical issue. I have had surgery with Dr. Lindley in the past and was very pleased, thus the reason I am traveling over 200 miles, to be treated by him again.”

“Dr. Lindley was very down to earth and explained my back issues better than any other physician that I had seen for the problem in 15 years. He ended up referring me to an awesome docgtor at the Mayo Clinic because my condition was not treatable at Alomere. It was an intense 6 hour surgery that required a team. I would definitely recommend Dr. Lindley. I trust him completely!”

“I was referred to Dr. Lindley regarding my spinal stenosis medical problem. I was impressed from start to finish with my surgery. I received a thorough 60 page information booklet custom made regarding instructions and explanations regarding my surgery procedure. After my surgery Dr. Lindley told me everything went perfect. On my first follow up appt, I met a friend of mine coming out of the Heartland Clinic, he asked why I was entering the clinic. He said did you have surgery done in Alexandria. I said yes I did and would highly recommend Dr. Lindley.”
