I would like to give a shout out to Debra, Debbie and Lisa, for their outstanding professionalism in getting me checked in and made sure I was well taken care of. They were absolutely amazing from the moment I stepped in the office and from the moment I stepped out and they should be commended for their work! Thank you for all you do for us🙏🏼.

Is this a joke? They have hung on me twice and wont take my call now. This is a Clerical nightmare. Try and call and get ahold of anyone. Youll ALWAYS get a VM and no return call. This place is herding sheep. This is definitely a business based service not people based. They don’t care about you or your situation, just your wallet. Find a different place if you can.

Dr Burgamen was awesome I can walk I’m pain free and no more sciatica I’m so glad I found this place I’m so happy I can cry the pain was horrible. Kim & Yvonne in the back are the best and Debbie at the front are so so sweet I have no regretsUpdate 12/24/20235 months later and still living pain free. I forgot to also add that I also was a cancer patient doing chemo and Dr Burgamen staff stayed on top of making sure my incision was good and that I didn’t catch infection . I can’t express how miserable I was racked with sciatica pain and on top of that everything I was dealing with from chemo side effects the fact that I had this surgery gave me 90% of my life back the other 10% goes towards the chemo but if it wasn’t for that 100% of my quality of living would have been restored. I had been walking with a walker for months and couldn’t work any longer as a cosmetologist because of the herniating disk and sciatica .. I no longer used my walker immediately after surgery… If your worried about choosing Dr. B don’t be like the commercial Allstate says … YOUR IN GOOD HANDS ! IM living pain free and I had my last chemo 12/13 I’m back working part time life couldn’t be better GOD IS GOOD 🙌🙌🙌🙌

Adam Bruggerman crippled me for life when he replaced hip. I was team roper /golfer . WAS!!Unable to play golf nor rope bc in a walker. Ive had the best orthopedic surgeons since & damage Bruggerman caused is unrepairable. I’m in walker for life!! He never paid a dime for crippling me. Stay Away from his knife! !!Risk being crippled indefinitely. Anyone has issues w the truth bring it on! I’m living proof he’s not qualified to practice!!Anne Cheri Basham

Despite being a difficult patient, requiring various levels of treatment, Dr. Bruggeman, Kim, and the entire staff were exceptional. For the first time in 7 years I have no sciatica pain. The separate procedure for collapsed cervical spine also has resulted in neck mobility and lack of pain for the first time in ~25 years. The doctor’s follow up attention was always amazing and appropriate. I thoroughly recommend his group without reservation.

My back pain was incapacitating. I asked at physical therapy what surgeon they saw the best results from. Following their recommendation, I went to Dr. Bruggerman. I have to agree with the PT. Dr. Bruggerman and his staff are excellent.

01:56 09 Feb 24

A three-star review is “okay” and reflects that I had an “okay” experience.I was uncomfortable from the moment I walked in. Front desk staff was not rude, but they weren’t welcoming either. Looked at me like I must be in the wrong place.The PA I met with was very nice, and she listened, but I still felt a bit rushed. I know she would have answered any questions I had, but I didn’t know enough about my condition to know what to ask. I met with Dr. Bruggeman very briefly, and I do appreciate that he makes the time to even meet with patients at their initial appointments.The lady who handled check-out was by far the nicest staff member. She looks at my paperwork, says “you’re having ALIF?” and I said, I guess so, and then had to go home and Google it because no one, neither the PA nor Bruggeman, told me that I may need to have ALIF or what it was.So, yeah. It wasn’t a bad appointment by any means, but I will not be continuing my care there.

I took my mom to get a consult at Texas Spine Center. Our initial visit was nothing short of excellent. The front desk staff were very nice and courteous and the wait time to get taken to a room was very minimal, not even 5 minutes. Once in a room, we were greeted by NP Paredes and she was such a lovely and nice person. She was very knowledgeable and spoke Spanish, so she was able to communicate fluently with my mom, which was such a huge plus! She evaluated my mom thoroughly and walked us through everything she was doing and knew. Afterwards, she went above and beyond and introduced us to Dr. Adam Bruggerman so we could meet him and know that he’s the one that will be treating my mom.Overall, our experience there was PERFECT. We’re very much looking forward to continue my mom’s treatment there at Texas Spine Center. I just wish we could’ve found this place sooner. Thank you for everything!

2 yrs ago I hurt my back doing something as simple as getting out of a car. I thought my life was over as I knew it due to the pain I was in and nothing helped. I was referred to Dr Bruggeman .He gave me my options and in less than a month I was scheduled for surgery and I walked out of the hospital the same day of surgery. I was scared and. stayed overnight nearby in case of complications However I experienced no pain at all . I walked out to dinner that night. I did experience a little pain about 2 weeks weeks out but he told me that would happen and was given meds without hesitation for my pain . it lasted about 3 weeks then it got better and better. I returned to work 2 months later and have been pain free since. His staff was always very professional and courteous and helped make my experience a great success. I would recommend this Office in a heart beat.

I went to see Dr.Bruggeman for a cervical consultation and it was a very pleasant experience. The office is nicely decorated and organized. Front desk staff was welcoming and polite. Dr.Bruggeman was thorough and very kind! I like the fact that everything was electronic, no need to fill out papers, everything was on IPads. I would definitely recommend to anyone!

Has a great experience with Dr Bruggerman. I was referred to him with the thought that I would need back surgery. Dr Bruggerman and his staff talked through options with me which included a chiropractor. After 6-weeks with the chiropractor I no longer need surgery. I’ll still need to continue PT but so much better than the alternative. So nice to know it’s not all about the money but the patients overall well being!

S Bryant

04:26 11 Jul 23

Oh my goodness, I don’t even know where to start! I first went into this office after having a failed microdiscectomy done by different surgeon in January of this year (2023). I was so scared that I was going to be treated the same as I was at the other center, must jump through hoops for months and months to get a solid answer. Miss Debbie and all medical staff were so kind, even though I had my 3 year old autistic kiddo with me. I saw Yvonne first (who is THE sweetest ❤️), and she immediately gave me hope after viewing all my images at my appointment, I left in happy tears. All of my fear, anxiety, and depression was lifted as I left the building, as I thought I was going to live the rest of my life in pain (at 38). Dr. Bruggeman saw me a few days preop, and explained everything very clearly, especially the risks associated with a second surgery. The following week he performed my surgery flawlessly…. it’s probably a bit too graphic to post photos, but you would not believe the difference in the incision from my first surgeon in Jan to Dr. B’s surgery in June on my spine. It was half the size, and I swear to you, besides the day of surgery, I needed ZERO post op pain medication. It was incredible, I was ready to go back to work at my desk job immediately.Just do research… Dr. Bruggeman is hands down the best spine surgeon in San Antonio 😊

Winter Zamora

22:56 23 Jun 23

Felt supported and heard on each visit I had here. They are very prompt and provide excellent knowledge and resources for their patients. PA Ruiz was attentive and made I left with all questions addressed. Miss Debbie at the front desk was incredibly sweet and helpful when I first contacted this office and made me feel warm and welcome when ever I interacted with her in office.

I was rolled into surgery in the worst pain of my life and a day later – I skipped out of the hospital pain free. Nearly four months later – I feel better than I have in 20 years. Can’t even see the surgical scar and still pain free. Dr. Bruggeman is a wizard in the operating room and his magic wand made my problems disappear! Only surgeon I would ever recommend for spine surgery.

I had back surgery in 2015 performed by Dr Bruggeman. I can honestly say he changed my life. After an ALIF on my L4-5 spinal fusion I was finally able to get back better mobility. Every nurse and doctor here are outstanding!

Dr Bruggerman operated on my neck last year and I can move it, I no longer am staring at the ground 24/7, I can turn it, twist it and look at the sky! I believe he uses magic in his surgeries. Kim is wonderful, kind and understanding of what I’m going through with my pain. She helps me understand what can be done to make my back better and their team has already improved my quality of life. They are now working on making my lower back pain better.Let’s not forget the office staff, they are all so nice and welcoming and clarify everything I need to do for my upcoming procedures and appointments.

Just left Dr. Bruggemans office and I would absolutely recommend this Dr and his staff. His office is super nice and very clean, they were all very sweet and make you feel so comfortable as soon as you walk in! Dr. Burggeman and Mrs. Kim Ruiz were amazing at explaining what was going on with me in terms I could understand which was very helpful!!! Thank you all so much for everything!!!

This was my 4th surgery with Dr Bruggeman – 2 cervical & 2 lumbar. I would go anyone else. Dr.B, his assistants Kimberly & Yvonne and the rest of the staff are the best! Knowledgable, great at keeping on schedule and friendly. I have had full confidence having them treat me and know that they are truly concerned about treating my issues. Also, I’m super impressed with their Pre-op Center that handles the exam & labs for your upcoming surgery. They also set post-op TeleMed calls after surgery to check on you, answering questions, prescribing meds if needed and the personal favorite just to see how your are. All around they are concerned with your well-being from helping you from the time you walk thru their doors, treatment plans, the mental ups & downs with diagnosis, pain management, Pre-op/Post-op, etc. TexasSpine Care is best well-rounded practice! You are in great hands from day one, when you make your appointment with Debbie for that initial visit, with an excellent surgeon, staff & a complete practice that will help you get thru this difficult time.

This was my 1st visit. I’ve never been more impressed with a medical practice. The entire staff was very friendly and professional. The medical staff made me feel heard. Very clean and well organized I felt a peace in trusting them with my problems.

From the time I entered the reception zone until the time I left their office, I was VERY impressed by the congenial, caring and very professional atmosphere and the personnel that made it so!I was the VP of Operations for a large cardiology practice and I can say from experience that Dr. Bruggeman and his entire staff are exceptional! One of the BEST practices I’ve ever stepped foot in for sure and I am left wondering how you were able to recruit Angels to work for you?THANK YOU Dr. Bruggeman for the peace and assurance that you imparted to me and kudos to you and all of your precious staff members for working to go way beyond being good to being totally exceptional!

Dr. Bergerman is very friendly attentive and is very prompt in getting you the best treatment needed for your complaints. His staff is very helpful and professional. The front desk is is exceptional and helpful. At this office I don’t feel like some other health care providers where everything is just professional and once you pay you get treated and leave. You are free to ask questions and if you are not sure they’re never too busy to help. I would recommend others to this off.

Excellent care, the level of care and expertise are commendable. Complete and precise explanation of what is happening and the potential plan of care was discussed at length. We never felt rushed and our questions were answered with care and compassion. Highly recommend

Fantastic. Very efficient and friendly office. Very competent at providing services and scheduling. Dr. Bruggeman did two surgeries on me. Both came out absolutely fantastic! I could not recommend him more. Dr. Bruggeman does not need the practice at surgery. If he says you need surgery, you really should listen to him.

Absolutely the best in SA! Can never thank Dr.Bruggeman and his extraordinary staff enough, for giving me the absolute best care and treatment before and after my disc replacement. Wouldn’t trust anyone but them for any spinal surgeries. So happy with my results!

Went to Texas Spine Care Center for the first time today, and my experience was AWESOME! From the two ladies at the front office counter who greats you with a smile and professionalism. The office is very upscale, clean and very inviting. The wait time was short to be called back to see the care representative. The exam room was clean, bright and upscale. I was seen by Dr. Yvonne Paredes who was very professional, and provided in detail information about my medical concerns. She explained what her recommendations would be to bring me some relief from my condition and pain. I highly recommend giving TSCC an experience, you will definitely enjoy it.James W

I have had two surgeries performed by Dr. Bruggerman since Feb. 2019. One was a fusion in the lower neck/upper spine. The other was implanting a spinal cord stimulator. Both surgeries were successful and helped me to get my life back. I would highly recommend his office! His team of employees are awesome! Everyone is very nice, compassionate, and helpful. My stimulator is made by Boston Scientific. Dr. Bruggerman’s office coordinated my appointments with Boston Scientific so that a representative was there for the appointments along the way. He also worked very well with my pain management doctor, Dr. Tisdell. I had a wonderful team of medical professionals all the way around!

Thank you Everyone from Texas Spine & NuHope for offering what was needed in the process of a journey & a chapter of my life. With the hope and believing God was with me every step of my journey. I was bless to meet Dr. Adam Bruggeman as my spine doctor/surgeon & his medical team assistants, the care that was much needed!The surgery was a success, recovered well, was active again going back to the gym faithfully but after 2 years feeling pain again due to alarming physical and mental pain.By the Grace of God I am healed in not needing a second surgery that was going be quite different than the laminectomy surgery.God is Good. I thank God for medical teams and doctors that have the knowledge and guidance with the gift of helping others that are in need of Medical Necessity, God bless you All.Do not have fear of what God is able to do and what a surgery can do that is needed to live a better lifestyle to reduce the pain or have no pain at all.Thank you.-Yesenia

I could write a novel but will try to be brief. I spent a large portion of my life ignored for the serious pain I lived with and Dr. Bruggeman discovered exactly what I was living with. It’s a rough road but he has made such a huge difference in my quality of life. I thank God I am in his care. His staff is hands down the best I have ever experienced. Dr. Bruggeman and his staff are all smart, kind, professional and there to help in every way. God bless you.
