“Exellent minimally invasive spine surgeon!!!”

My aunt had been dealing with severe back pain for years. As someone who does a manual job, she had been told spine surgery would force her to retire early. Thanks to Dr. Mataragas, he performed a state of the art minimally invasive surgery on her and she was able to recover wonderfully and is back to work at her job and pain free. Thank you and God bless you Dr. Mataragas!!

“A really amazing surgeon.”

Dr. Mataragas did my L5-S1 fusion. He spent several appointments with me going over both surgical and non-surgical treatments for my back pain. When the non-surgical treatments didn't work, I opted for surgery. Within 2 weeks of surgery, I had almost no back pain. I was already back to walking within 8 hours of my procedure. My rehab is going really well at this point, and I can't thank Dr. Mataragas and the staff at SOC and West Boca Medical Center enough!!!

“Best surgeon around”

I have entirely too much experience with spine surgery and spine surgeons. I can say without a doubt he is the most talented and skillful surgeon I have been around. I would not go anywhere else for my spine surgery care, whether it be surgical or non-surgical.

“He changed my life.”

Dr. Mataragas changed my life. As a surgeon myself, my painful condition made it impossible for me to continue to take care of patients. After extensive research and checking with my other surgical colleagues on who I should turn to for back surgery, the consensus pointed to Dr. Mataragas. After his outpatient surgical procedure on me, I was able to return to work after one week. I can't say enough good things about his skill set, compassion, and understanding. I highly recommend Dr. Mataragas without reservation.

“Relief after 8 years of pain”

Dr. Mataragas was very professional. He explained things in a way that I could understand. I could not be more happy with the success of my surgery and highly recommend him as a provider.

“fixed my back pain without surgery”

After seeing multiple spine specialists and being told surgery is the only option for me, Dr. Mataragas was willing to try non-surgical methods and thankfully it resulted in me getting better and not having to have any back surgery. He cares about the patient and not just making money. I owe him everything.

“Made the right diagnosis for me and didnt need surgery”

After seeing 3 different physicians, Dr. Mataragas was able to make the correct diagnosis in me when no other doctor could figure out what was wrong. I had been dealing with severe pain in my back for months. The greatest part of it was that the fix for the problem he found was not even surgery! Cant thank him enough.

“Relief after 25+ years of back pain”

After dealing with back pain for so long I found a spine surgeon that I was able to build a relationship with and was able to fully trust. I had an lumbar fusion done which relieved my pain and has allowed me to get back to doing the things I enjoy doing. I can walk again without pain, and feel like I have my life back. Thank you Dr. Mataragas

“Fantastic care from A-Z”

Dr. Mataragas and his staff was amazing through my whole experience with them. From diagnosis and then to eventual surgery I felt heard and involved in my care. The whole staff treated me like a person not another number. I would recommend him to anyone who listens.

“Life changing experience”

Before I had surgery with Dr. Mataragas I could not sleep due to severe pain. The surgery completely changed my life. I am now pain free and back doing the activities I enjoy. I feel amazing
