Brandon B. Carlson, MD, MPH

I can’t say enough about Dr. Carlson. He is what I hope all doctors are like - extremely talented, excellent bedside manner, and truly cares for his patients and the quality of life they have.

Dr Carlson is an excellent surgeon. I had emergency surgery on my spine. I was one fall away from paralysis. I was fortunate enough to have Dr. Carlson be the surgeon on Call when I was admitted to KU Medical Center. He was very kind, understanding, took his time and answered all my questions. Follow up care has been excellent as well, and I would not hesitate to go to him if I ever need any further work on my spine.

After two spine surgeries and being told the continuing issues were muscle related and nothing more could be done, a friend recommended Dr. Carlson. At my first appointment, he was able to make a diagnosis and recommendation for a life changing surgery to reconstruct my spine. The nine hour surgery was in April. I will never forget looking in the mirror the day after surgery and seeing myself stand straight and tall for the first time in my life. Dr. Carlson and his staff are the best. He is humble and kind and his knowledge and compassion for patients is incredible. I will forever be grateful to Dr. Carlson for giving me a chance to enjoy life.
