“Dr. Telles actually listens and explains options. He is very busy so you need to come in with specific questions. He does have a sense of humor, which I appreciate as some of the discussions can be serious. He does not waste time. He is an excellent surgeon, which is the most important reason one chooses a surgeon.”

“I had some fear prior to my back surgery I had delayed for so long but the back pain was so bad I could no longer go on. Dr. Telles has a very comforting manor of explaining the surgery and two months after the surgery the recovery is going quite well.”

“At my wits end after several back surgeries, none of which were very helpful, Dr. Thaxter recommended Dr. Telles. Dr. Connor Telles worked a miracle of healing and essentially actually saved my life in the sense of restoring my mobility and relative painlessness. From the get-go, Dr. Telles studied and mapped out my condition (which was pathetic after three failed back surgeries) and essentially reconstructed my spine in what amounted to a near-complete re-do and rebuilding. I am grateful to Dr. Telles and have since resumed my regular and excellent physical capabilities, and my life has been restored to a wonderful and happy degree. Thank you to both Drs. Thaxter and Telles!”

“I had tried for over 1 1/2 years to manage my back pain with chiro care and pain shot. Finally needed to know why not better. Saw Dr. Telles, had X-rays and MRI done. Then the meeting with Dr Telles for results, which really scared me. It was so much worse than I thought, he fully explained what was going on, told me what need to be done. I went home, cried and called the office to schedule surgery ASAP. I prepared myself, arranged my life for recovery time and lined up family support. Surgery went perfectly, both Drs. were not only skilled, attentive, kept me informed of what to expect ! Hospital stay (3 days) great progress, then to rehab hospital for 6 days! Once again I did great due to my surgeons, staff said I did there. recovery so fast ,sent home early. I believe due to excellent surgery results I have continue to recover at amazing rate !! I had physical therapy. come to my home, then additional physical therapy at office to further help recovery. Whole surgery event went so well, I feel Dr. Telles did amazing work on my back which set the tone for whole experience. I continue to heal and thrive !!”
