“It was a miracle I can walk again”
I had, what I think is normal, hesitations about getting surgery. What if something went wrong? But, I basically was not walking more than a couple of very painful yards and was wheel chair confined.
Dr. Napier really listened to my concerns. He didn't rush. First, we tried non-surgical alternatives, which worked for a bit. However, it became apparent, a longer term solution was needed. He was very optimistic surgery would help. He explained, in a very easy to understand language, what would happen, what to expect and the potential side effects.
The shooting pain was gone immediately after surgery. I did have pain from the surgery itself but was much better after a week. Now, 2 months later, I am pain free. I was mentally prepared to be disabled for the rest of my life. It is a miracle and Dr. Napier is the miracle worker. Thank goodness he went into this profession.

“Excellent outcome and care.”
I appreciate not only my surgical results, but also the “patient focused” care provided by the medical and office staff.

“Dr Napier was knowledgeable and professional an”
I was very confident in Dr Napier after my first consultation. He explained my MRI and my options in terminology l was able to understand and feel positive about my decision for surgery. His office staff is also very professional and accommodating. They were completely on the ball from start to finish. I highly recommend Dr. Napier. I am finally able to move my neck with much more ease and less pain

“Best second opinion ever!”
I was originally going to have my spine surgery with UC DAVIS but decided to get a second opinion. I am so glad I did! Dr. Napier is a phenomenal surgeon. His procedure was less invasive than what was originally going to be done and my recovery time was almost non existent. Spine surgery is scary. I had an artificial disk inserted in between my L5 and S1 thru my abdomen. Then I had two rods and four screws inserted in my back. I am 8 weeks post op and feel better than I ever have before. All pain is gone, I'm bending and twisting, AND I'm living a much healthier life now. I am blown away by my results and I can't thank Dr. Napier enough for what he's done for me. If you are looking to have spinal surgery, I would recommend Sierra Spine Institute 100%! Everyone is kind, caring and supportive and the process was so easy. Thank you so so so much Dr. Napier!!!!

“I received outstanding care.”
I suddenly started experiencing severe and incapacitating back pain in January 2022. It was the worst pain I had ever felt in my life. I was completely crippled by these attacks which were crushing nerves between my vertebrae and making normal day to day activities impossible. I spent large parts of the day in bed. I went to Dr. NaPier and agreed to major fusion back surgery. Immediately after surgery my nerve pain was gone. Now, 3 months after surgery, I have my life back thanks to Dr. NaPier. He is a patient and understanding doctor who carefully explains the issues and what he will be doing to correct it. He also has a top notch staff working for him. I can't say enough about how well they have taken care of me. If you want to get out of pain and get back to living, I highly recommend Dr. NaPier.
