  • Need a St. Louis Surgeon

    Who is/are the best scoliosis surgeon in the St. Louis Missouri area? My sister-in law is needing Help in this area of the country. Kathleen

    Best Doctor in St. Louis

    I may be prejudiced about the best scoliosis surgeon in St. Louis because I'm using Keith Bridwell for surgery on January 19th, but he's the one I would vote for. Of course, I think anyone else in his practice with the Washington University med school would be good also.

      I'd also try Shriners Hospital in St. Louis. All of the Shriners Hospitals for Children tend to have some of top docs in any given area. We use the one in Philadelphia b/c we're in the Northeast.

      Good luck,

        I second that motion with Keith Bridwell. Go online and look him up, you will find an abundance of information and sites that mention him.
