I recently experienced a pinched nerve that severely affected my ability to use my right hand. I contacted Dr. Carll who immediately went to work on my behalf. Knowing that this was a time sensitive situation Dr. Carll went out of his way to ensure that I received the appropriate MRIs, CAT scans, and nerve studies to properly diagnose my situation. After reviewing all the test Dr. Carll exhibited true professionalism and integrity by referring me out to Dr. Patty Young (I am so thankful for your referral) who specialized in the surgery that I would need. Dr. Carll could’ve chosen to operate because I had several degenerative disc, however he chose ethics over profit. Dr. Carll is a true professional that will put your health over profit! When it comes to your health there’s nothing more important than having a doctor that you can trust to be professional and ethical. Thank you Dr. Carll for providing me with both! More

The staff was nice the got me in quickly. The doctors head nurse explained everything well I never saw dr carl though. I'm happy the exams looked good but was left confused because the previous ex rays didn't show damage and I needed a mri to see anything that was wrong. I'm not a dr. though so it's hard to say anything from my lack of knowledge. More

Dr. Carll is fantastic! He reviewed my MRI, explained what was happening and why, and answered all my questions. What I was most impressed with was his suggestion to NOT have surgery at this time as another type of therapy I'm using is working and keeping me out of pain. Said that surgery is only an option when pain is too much and other options do not help. 100% Honest. We need more Dr's like him. THANKS Dr. Carll. More

I can’t say enough about Dr. Carll and Tricia, they were so great, I had a 360 spine fusion with laminectomy. To be honest I only ever felt surgical area pain for a few days. I did get nerve pain (which isn’t normal for everyone) but they have been there every time I have called them. Libby was also on it as I called in crying over this but other than that I wouldn’t know I had back surgery. I could not imagine going to a different surgeon, I was referred to him by someone I work with and I am very appreciative. Best Dr Ever, don’t go to anyone else. More

Dr Carll treated a broken L4&5 on our teenage son years ago - and is helping me with a degenerative disc. The office is nice, the PA is wonderful, Miss Mary even called back to let me know the prescriptions were called in. Dr Carll was kind, helpful and professional. I couldn’t be more grateful as we work to reduce this pain. I highly recommend Dr. Carll. More

Had an excellent diagnosis, back surgery, and recovery. Dr. Carll must have done an excellent job because I was back on my racing bike for a (short) ride only 7 weeks after surgery - and after 3 months I was back up to 60 miles. 100% recommended. More

After experiencing severe nerve pain for two full months and several failed steroid injections to address the pain, I went to Dr. Carll for a second opinion related to surgery. Dr. Carll was very calm, informative and reassuring when speaking to me about this surgery. I appreciate that he took the time to answer every one of my many questions. His staff is amazing! I honestly felt like they were only working on my case. Amber was able to get a pre-approval from my insurance company in a matter of days which I understand typically takes about 3 weeks. Less than 2 weeks after my office visit with Dr. Carll, I was in surgery for a cervical fusion from C5 to C7. Upon waking up from surgery, my nerve pain was completely gone! I am so thankful for the impeccable work of Dr. Carll and his entire team in support of my care prior to, during and post surgery. The change in my quality of life has been simply miraculous! Thank you Dr. Carll,Amber,Melissa,Mary,Gabby, Tisha, Anaid & David More

Would 100% choose this MD again. My husband had already had a spinal injection with absolutely no improvement. Dr Carl did lower lumbar fusion as my husband could not sit or stand upright. Immediately after surgery my husband felt no pain and I can actually see his face again. The level of care and empathy received from his office is amazing! More

I am a former collegiate athlete and current Veterinary Technician who recently suffered from left leg nerve pain...aka pinched siatica. As you can imagine my profession is a very athletic one, and I've been doing it 10 years with no end in sight. Being that I have that "Go hard or go home", killer type work ethic I needed to seek help to relieve my everyday pain. I read tons of reviews like the ones posted below and found Dr. Carll and staff to be the most consistently praised for above par standard of all around care. So I said, "Hey, let's give it a shot!". Thankfully I did because I hit the JACKPOT!!! When doing research regarding spinal care with my clients I had found so many people struggle with the same pain. Not only were my researcher's in pain, they had vile and disgusting stories about their experiences. Imagine the terror I felt when walking into his office....until I met Melissa greeting me so kindly at the front desk. From there on out I was 100% taken care of!! Not only with professionalism, but with respect, punctuality, kindness, and just a smiling face every direction I turned. Each staff member from front to back had a sense of knowledge and professionalism that never left me unsatisfied. I even made it as far as the operating table where Dr. Carll performed a Laminectomy with fusion in my L5-S1. I am 18 days post-op and am already back (no pun intended) working, slowly but surely with the same killer attitude....He even made me taller!!! Long story short the reviews and great things you hear are true. My goal is to make sure those who suffer from back pain and are reading this make the best possible choice in Dr. Carll and staff!!!

From beginning to end, everyone at Spine Care of North Texas went the extra mile to ensure by surgery was a success. I began the process of booking my surgery from overseas, which could have been a very difficult process but with the Spine Care team it was a breeze. I cannot thank them enough for everything they have done to help me get my life back. Dr. Carll is incredible and his staff are second to none- thanks especially to Amber for answering my countless emails and phone calls. I recommend Spine Care of North Texas to anyone who is considering spinal surgery. More

My name is Mark Walter. Doctor Carll and his staff are simply the best when it comes to spine and back care, bar none ! Ive had a total of 6 spine surgeries to date. My first one was done by a different doctor and it failed. I found Dr Carll after exhaustive research and countless inital consultations with numerous other doctors and I'm so glad I found him. He has since then performed five additional spine surgeries on me. I was badly screwed up to say the least and he literally gave me my life back. I highly recommend him to everyone including my own family members, one of which he also done surgery on and like me she was totally thrilled with him and the results. His staff are hands down the best in the business and the only team that Ive NEVER had a single complaint or issue with !!! This man knows his stuff and sets the standard other doctors and surgeons only dream of achieving. No games and no lies. Just kindness, honesty, and most importantly, he treats people like his friends and neighbors and not an ATM machine like so many doctors do now days. Give his office a call. Its the best thing you will ever do for your spine & your own peace of mind. More

Dr Carll was a lifesaver for me! I fought the back pain from a pinched/herniated sciatic nerve for 7 months. I tried everything from PT, chiropractic, spinal decompression, antigravity table, ibuprofen and more ibuprofen and steroids. Eventually, the pain was so unbearable that I could not sit through a meal or even drive. I finally gave up avoiding surgery and went to Dr Carll. I had minimally invasive microdisctectomy and the results were excellent. A few months of rehab later and I’ve got my life back. I’m so glad I saw Dr. Carll! He was so caring and explained everything thoroughly, including what to expect after surgery. His staff was just as wonderful and caring. I’d go back to him in a heartbeat. I’m very grateful for his skilled hands. God bless them. More

I had put off my 360 Spinal Fusion for over a decade, relying on epidurals to deal with the pain. After doing two years of thorough research, I chose Dr. Kendall Carll at the Spine Care of North Texas. Being that I’m in the medical industry, I did ask around, too. From the initial consultation, all staff involved were very supportive and explained all aspects of the procedure; including what I could expect during and after the procedure. Because I never really experienced “excruciating” pain, I stopped taking all pain meds three days after the procedure. I was up and walking the day of the procedure and followed all directives. I was up several times a day walking and learning how to use steps; since I my place is two levels. The staff did a great job setting up my home health care; which included a nurse and a physical therapist. They, too, did an outstanding job. A large part of my job involves air travel. I felt so “good” I reached out to see if I was ok to travel. I followed all restrictions, primarily lifting, and was able to take a two-hour flight. This is amazing considering it was only 23 days post-surgery. If you’re like me and will use insurance, be sure to do the match; to make sure your rehab will be completed by the end of the year. “I am 100% satisfied with my experience with Spine Care of North Texas. Every single person on staff was terrific, and the system worked flawlessly. I now refer all my friends and family to them. More

From the initial consultation, all staff involved were very supportive and explained all aspects of the procedure; including what I could expect during and after the procedure. Because I never really experienced “excruciating” pain, I stopped taking all pain meds three days after the procedure. I was up and walking the day of the procedure and followed all directives. I was up several times a day walking and learning how to use steps; since I my place is two levels. They are the best!!! More

I had put off my 360 Spinal Fusion for over a decade, relying on epidurals to deal with the pain. After doing two years of thorough research, I chose Dr. Kendall Carll at the Spine Care of North Texas.

I recently experienced a pinched nerve that severely affected my grip in my right hand. Dr Carll immediately went to work on my behalf. Dr Carll appropriately diagnosed my situation, referred me to an amazing doctor. Dr Carll could’ve chosen to operate, however he chose ethics over profit. Dr Carll is a true professional that will put your health over profit! There’s nothing more important than than having a doctor that you can trust to be professional and ethical. Dr Carll provides both! More

Compassioniate and Caring - Both my husband and I used Dr. Carll for our back surgeries and both times he showed extreme compassion and caring during our recovery. He was highly recommended to usby friends and we in turn have recommended him to others as well. Dr. Carll is very knowledgeable and is an expert in his chosen field and we would not think of using anyone but him should any future surgeries arise. He is the best! More

The office itself has a very loose and laid back feel. This makes you feel very at ease and not anxious at all during your stay. The service is very quick and efficient with their time while still making you feel very important to them. Dr.Carll is a very likable person who makes you sure you will be in the best place you can be after your visit. I would highly recommend this place for you. More

Excellent Doctor and Team - I am into week one of my 360 back surgery and already walking around well. Him and his personal staff are very attentive and caring. I felt I made the right choice since he had already been highly recommended. I would definitely recommend him for anyone dealing with surgical spine treatments. His staff alone are excellent I must say again from his PA down to the office personnel.The only criticism I could think of was the hospital I was admitted to. They were very friendly but felt like they could handled some situations better but this is still not his staff. All in all this is someone you can trust and what people reading reviews want to make sure of. If you need a skilled surgerion Dr. Kendall Carll was excellent! More

My 16 yr old son complained about low back pain after doing off-season football workouts. The school trainers and staff treated him for a pulled muscle. I took him to see Dr. Carll as I suspected it was more. He took my genetic history into consideration as my oldest son and I both had stress fractures. X-ray showed nothing. Sent for a MRI and confirmed two stress fractures. I appreciate Dr. Carll’s thoroughness! Super professional! Great follow-up! Highly recommend him!! More

Go see Dr. Carll at Spine Care of North Texas! - Dr. Carll is amazing! He did a 360 fusion on my low back. 6 weeks later and I was doing hot yoga! The entire procedure was so easy! It was nothing like the other back doctors had warned me. They’d rather pump you full of meds and nerve injections than fix the problem. Don’t listen to them! I had given up hope until I met Dr. Carll! He will be the only doctor going forward to touch my spine! If you suffer from back pain. Go see him! He’s so good about explaining the problem and solution. No run around. Office is efficient and everyone on his team is first class! More

Dr. Carll did a fantastic job for me. I was having tons of pain in my arm caused by a pinched nerve in my C4 and C5. We did all the conservative treatments, but finally had to do surgery. The minute I woke up from surgery all the pain was gone and the scar left behind was minimal. He is easy to talk to and speaks layman terms. Only opportunity was the office staff. At times, I had to follow up a few times to get things completed. More

Met for 3rd opinion - I received Dr. Carll's name from my PCP because of my chronic back issues. I had a previous surgery by another doctor and was still experiencing the same issues as before the surgery so I felt I needed a new approach to my treatment plan. Although I waited almost a full hour past my original appointment time to be seen, I feel that Dr. Carll and his staff made up for the wait by taking the time with me to talk about my issues, fears, any questions I had and the explanation for my issues that the doctors I had seen previously did not have. He and his PA really listened to my story and put me at ease about the treatment plan he recommended. He did not push me in any direction, but he did give me all the options I have including a second surgery. I will be discussing things with my husband and feel that if / when I move forward with the treatment, it will definitely be with Dr. Carll. More

Dr. Carll is an amazing and gifted surgeon. He puts his patients care and well-being above everything else. He genuinely cares for the health of his patients. Due to my bad health and disease, he has performed multiple spine surgeries on me, each one was extremely successful and greatly improved my quality of life. I trust him explicitly. More

Leg pain - I saw Dr. Carll for a second opinion after another surgeon told me I needed surgery without explaining what kind of surgery and why. He walked me through my xrays and the surgery I would need to removed the pressure on my spinal cord. He answered every question I had. At then end of our conversation, he said he would be happy to do it but did not force the issue. He even called me a few days later to check on me. When I told him I was going for a 3rd opinion, he encouraged it. I haven't decided if I want to have surgery yet, but I will be going back to Dr. Carll if I do. More

I was especially impressed at how long he spent describing my xrays to me. He perscribed physical therapy for me and then wants to see me back. I am going to send all of my friends to him. More
