Many years ago, my Mom needed back surgery, at the age of 83. I took her to Peoria, IL., and the exam took less than 15 minutes. They didnt want to deal with her, because of her age. Dr. Caron was recommended to me by my dentist. His exam took an hour and a half, and he promised her another good ten years. It was a long surgery, but only because he is so tedious. She passed away at the age of 98, and everything hurt except her back. She was so happy with the choice of doctor. I suspect he is even better, now.

Dr. Caron may be a good surgeon however, after my surgery he really had nothing to do with “patient care.” I saw him in the hospital after surgery, but once I went home I was on my own. Two days after surgery I was told to make an appointment with a pain specialist in the same office. I just had spine surgery and was in a lot of pain. I’ve had spine surgery before and never was in that much pain. I needed help and was told to see another doctor. I met the kind specialist and he helped me. He even changed the dosage of a muscle relaxer the surgeon just gave me because he said it wasn’t enough. Then at my two week appointment I saw his P.A. not him. I know he’s good at what he does, but I guess I expect more than surgery from my Dr.

I was having trouble walking and sever back pain. Dr.Caron suggested that I have an MRI of my neck. That was my problem level 3-7 were so degenerative that they were wrapped around my spinal cord. Thanks to him and his extremely talented PAs I am now walking and back to normal.

Dr. Caron was amazing to work with. I was terrified about surgery but the whole process went smooth thanks to him. Thank you Dr. Caron!

He saved my sons life. That was ten years ago. My son Michael and his fiance Kelly have a son, my grandson Aiden who just turned 6. Thank you Dr Caton for your dedication and care. Lynn

Because of Dr Carons diagnosis and surgery (4 years ago today), - I am completely recovered, clear-headed, and able to write this review. Professional, thorough and a good sense of humor too.
