Dr. Eyke has always been a pleasant human being and doctor. He did my original surgery about two years ago and has been on tract with my follow up appointments. He has been easy to work with and compassionate with my pain. Always a joy to work with him to get good results. I am blessed to have him as part of my healthcare team. — Loretta P.

Dr. Eyke is one of a very few doctors I would recommend to my family and friends. He has fused my neck which turned out fantastic!!! I feel 100% better than before I had surgery!! He is very personable and listens to what you have to say. Many doctors these days don't. If I ever need neck or spinal surgery again Dr. Eyke is the only one I will go to for that kind of surgery!!! — Tami B.

Just completed my 3rd spinal surgery with this surgeon over the last 15 years. He has fused vertebra in my back and neck. I would trust him with my children. His staff is top notch in knowledge, experience and care. If you suffer from back pain, please at a minimum at least get a consult with Dr. Eyke, he will be honest and direct about your options. — Adam B.

Dr. Eyke was very professional and upfront about my two level cervical fusion. I was in and out the same day from the procedure and have recovered more quickly than I expected. Very few issues. Was back to office work part-time by the second week and by the 6th week post-op feel fairly normal again. Well satisfied. — Douglas F.

Dr. Eyke removed bone spurs from my husband's spine that were causing great difficulty in swallowing. People told him it would be a nasty surgery but his outcome was amazing. This is not a "normal" surgery since it is an unusual condition. We can't say enough about how pleased we are with the results and with Dr. Eyke' s care and concern. — Doris C.
