DR NEIL COHRANE - PRECISION BRAIN, SPINE AND PAIN CENTRE REVIEWS
Neil was nothing short of professional and lovely to deal with. He always took the time to answer my many questions and his post operative care was far better than I anticipated. I truly believe with surgery you get back what you put in, so set realistic expectations, go in well informed and be willing to rehabilitate yourself, ask lots of questions and above all else, have a great attitude. Thanks Neil for fixing my back!
Dr Cochrane has preformed 8 of my 9 spinal surgeries. All resulted from a motor vehicle accident and degeneration. Great surgeon. Explains everything and only operates when all other measures are exhausted. I’d highly recommend him. Thanks Neil.
Dr Cochrane is a very professional surgeon, very talented surgeon, a caring personality and is very knowledgeable in spinal and brain injuries, i have been a patient of Dr Cochrane for a number of years and he has assisted me with getting back to as normal life as possible thank you

DR ELLISON STEPHENSON REVIEWS
We found DrStephenson an extremely caring and professional doctor. Her knowledge, expertise and help during my husband’s spinal surgery was amazing. My husband is now pain free thanks to her surgery. We can not recommend her highly enough.
I have been a patient of Dr Stephenson for over ten years and have had several surgeries. I can't commend to highly, how grateful I am for having met Dr Stephenson.
Absolutely the most knowledgeable and caring Doctor we have been to. My husband had spinal surgery with Dr Stephenson and under her care and experience he has been pain free ever since. She explained things clearly and thoroughly from start to finish. We cannot thank her enough.

DR LEONG TAN REVIEWS
I went to Dr Tan with bulging discs and a pinched nerve.I had been in chronic pain with this for 6 months. Dr. Tan explained exactly what was needed surgery wise and I felt very confident on leaving his rooms.I had a disc replacement and 2 plates and screws inserted in my spine, yes it is very painful surgery but it has fixed the problem. Before the surgery he showed me an animated video of exactly what was going to be done and that was so reassuring for me. Dr Tan is very matter of fact but that was exactly what I needed as I had been putting off surgery for so long. I would highly recommend him to anybody needing this surgery. He is definitely my hero as I’m now pain free.
No doubt that Dr Tan is the best brain doctor on the Gold Coast. Two years ago, my wife had a cerebral hemorrhage, Dr Tan performed an aneurysm clip implant (brain surgery) for her same day. The operation was 100% successful, becasue she started walking a month after the surgery, and she was 100% recovered after 3 months. Thanks to our Lord for sending Dr Tan to us, and also thanks to Dr Tan for his superb surgery.
After being told there was nothing structurally wrong by another rated surgeon I had a appointment with Dr Tan now after surgery early December I am having my first game of golf tomorrow. six weeks after a laminectomy!!!!The man is amazing I am pain free and in awe of him great sense of humour extremely polite and courteous as are the staff. Wouldn't go anywhere else.
