“Overall this has been an amazing journey from start to finish!”
Dr. Vigna is personable, caring and very knowledgeable. He made me feel comfortable at every encounter. He took the time to answer every question and never rushed though an appointment. I had 5 level cervical fusion which is a 2 stage surgical procedure and Dr. Vigna was on hand and responded quickly to calls from the hospital staff concerning me. Although I would never wish this on anyone. I would recommend Revive Spine Center and Dr. Vigna He gets a 10 out of 10 for Orthopedic care!

“Miraculous outcome!”
Very well cared for. Provider gave a good understanding of surgery and the outcome was better than I could have ever expected. My quality of life has tremendously improved and it's only been 2 weeks since surgery. All staff treated me in a kind, compassionate, professional manner. I am so grateful to finally be pain free!

“Complete excellence all around!!!!”
I have nothing but good things to say about this provider. First of all l have never sat in their waiting room for more than 10 minutes before seeing the doctor. I am absolutely blown away by their care. The doctor's l have seen have exhibited true compassion and empathy, a rarity today in the medical arena. There is no rushing you out the door here. They take their time with you, allow you to talk and more importantly really listen to you. I could not recommend them more highly!!!

“Matt McKenney is always helpful and a true professional”
Matt made his questions clear and was able to answer my questions fully. He showed me two different options for the procedure I am having which helped me decide.

“Met all of my expectations!”
I had surgery with Dr. Vigna and I'm slowly but surely feeling like myself again. He took the time to explain my condition to me and made sure I understood what was going on. The whole office is very accommodating. Would definitely recommend reVive to anyone suffering from back and neck pain.
