I was able to avoid surgery because of Dr. Purcell’s expertise. Original Doc not affiliated with Redding Spine & Sports recommended surgery but Dr. Purcell suggested a less invasive approach that worked! Thankful for the knowledgeable, professional service provided by Redding Spine & Sports.

Referred for nerve conduction study tests and it ended up costing $700 because the doctor suggested testing more areas than the initial charges covered. Unfortunately, the doctor suggested these additional areas in a very casual way ("the equipment is already out"), and it was not clear at all that the $400 already paid for the appointment would almost double because of it. We wouldn't be told about the additional costs until a bill came in the mail a month later. Lesson learned to ask about cost more often and more assertively with a high deductible health plan. When we contacted them to let them

I was referred for a worker's comp issue and I found their care to be exceptional. I was seen promptly, the staff were friendly and helpful and the exam was very thorough. The results were back quickly and I never felt like my case was less important because it was worker's comp. I would definitely return there for care for other back and sports issues.

Highly recommend both Drs. Annie and Joe Purcell. Their office is well organized and staff is highly competent. I've seen them both in the office, and had a procedure by Joe Purcell, and each experience was great. Couldn't recommend more highly. They truly care about their patients.
