Dr Saeger

by Lisa3006

I have seen Dr. Saeger more than once in the last 5 years of my illness. Some of his treatments helped and some didn't. Imagine what a hard job it is to work with peoples nerves and spines! I believe the doctors there do the best that they can for their patients, and Dr. Saeger has been nothing but polite and infomative to me as to what to expect before and after treatments. Over all the staff at midwest are caring and helping people.

• Pros: Great Doctor

great treatment

This is written in defense of the Spine Institute. Contrary to horse34, both my husband and I were very impressed with Dr. Saeger and his staff. I had complete elimination of my pain after 2 days, my husband yet to be determined. We found the staff all to be very accomodating beginning with the receptionist until we left. I will definitely go back there should the pain recur !

• Pros: caring, courteous staff
• Cons: cool room (needed to be though)

Bad service

by horse34

I had a second spine injection for my back and the doctor Struck a nerve and that caused the muscles in my left leg to bunch up like a charlie-horse but way worse than that. I was crying really hard and Dr. Louis Saeger still finished the injection like he didn't care at all! When I got up from the table, I asked for a prescription pain reliever, which I got later. Then I asked one of the techs to get my mother who was in the waiting room. She came immediately, and when Dr Saeger came in, she asked him when the pain in my leg would go away? He then said,"I don't know, but I have a crystal ball over there and we'll see what it says." Then my Mother proceeded to tell her how rude Dr Saeger was to us, and she defended him and said that he's a good doctor and a good man. She did not like us staying past our welcome! Very rude service, and I will never go back to see anyone for injections at Midwest Spine Institute. I have never been treated so bad in all my life!
