MICHAEL R. PUUMALA, MD - AVERA MEDICAL GROUP NEUROSURGERY REVIEWS
Dr Puumala took the time to thoroughly review my scans, answer all our questions and genuinely appeared to care about my wellbeing. I've seen many doctors in the last two years and he is by far the best. I'd recommend him without reservation. I was so thankful for his help with putting all the pieces together. Just awesome.
Dr Puumala explained the problem and the surgery very well. Surgery and rehabilitation was successful! No more back pain. I can water ski and play with grandsons!
I can't say enough great things about Dr Puumala & staff. From the time I was checked in to the time I woke up in recovery. I also want to thank the nurses at McKennan that took care of me . I thought I was in a 5 star hotel.

MARGARET A. CARMODY, MD - AVERA MEDICAL GROUP NEUROSURGERY REVIEWS
Dr. Carmody removed a tumor that had almost entirely compressed my spinal cord. Before surgery, I was in a great deal of pain and had great difficulty walking. After surgery to remove the tumor by Dr. Carmody, I am totally healed- no pain or difficulty walking!
