I'm happy to have Dr Wheeler and the wonderful group at TOA as providers of such fine medical care and kindness.
Dr. Wheeler is knowledgeable and gives good insight to treatment options. I love that he isn’t pro surgery and values that it is the last resort. He referred me to Dr. Walters for pain management and they are both professional and passionate. Happy to have them as my doctors and they take my concerns and pain seriously. Quick efficient appointments.
I had an anterior lumbar fusion performed by Dr Wheeler in 2024. It took time but after everything healed it was the greatest thing I have ever done. Went from not being able to put socks on to fully functional!
