What Our Patients Have To Say

At Onyx Spine & Orthopedic Institute, every patient’s experience matters. From expert care to compassionate support, hear how our team has helped individuals and families feel seen, heard, and truly cared for.

From the very first appointment, Dr. Minges was very honest and forthcoming and wasted no time. Considering I have previously had a lumbar fusion, which was very serious after deciding on treatment, and ultimately having another operation. He cleaned up everything from the first operation, fixed the new issue, and rebuilt the cage around my spine. Within 24 hours of being home from the hospital, I was off all medications, had zero side effects, and zero complications. I would 100% absolutely recommend Dr. Minges!

Satisfied Lumbar Fusion Patient

Had bulging disc in lower back. Pain rating was very high when it started. With Dr. Minges' help, I am back to doing what I was able to do prior to my injury with minimal to no pain. Really appreciate all that he has done to help me continue doing the things I love.

Satisfied Bulging Disc Patient

Dr. Minges was very straightforward and understanding.

Excellent care from both Dr. Minges and his team all the time - they listen, they’re thorough, always with wonderful bedside manner, even with my complicated case. They performed the big surgery I needed and did it well. Will always recommend.
