I'm new to the forums and I'm in the process of deciding on surgery. I wanted to see if anyone has seen or heard anything about the surgeon. It's Dr. Mark Rahm at the Scott & White Spine Center in Temple, Texas. Thanks ahead of time for any info!

In Texas too
Hi Mere and all,
I am in Texas too. In Austin, and thinking about surgery as well. I was about to ask if you guys had a recommendation on good surgeons in central Texas. I was seen at the Austin Spine. They suggested to perform first a neck surgery for my cervical myelopathy, and then talk about the scoliosis one, as my curve has progressed to 68 degrees. Any advice about good surgeons in this area? Thanks a lot!

Hey I am new here too, I had my surgery this past summer in San Antonio. I would highly recommend Dr. James Simmons at the South Texas Spinal Clinic. He did a good job and his office was very easy to work with.20 y/o male, had the fusion to "straighten my act up", and just trying to have a normal life again.

His staff is amazing and so far I have no complaints. My surgery is coming up in just a few weeks so I'll try to keep ya'll posted on how it goes!
Good Luck~Allison~

By the way, for anyone in Austin: there's a "Bar Crawl for Scoliosis" fundraiser on Sunday, May 3, to raise money for the National Scoliosis Foundation. Learn more here:
