    JWM Neurology has MANY neurologists within their practice. They all travel around and practice…read morewithin these remote locations. In the last 24 years, I have been a patient of 4 or 5 different neurologists with JWM and have always been pretty pleased with the care that I've received from my actual neurologist. My only reasons for changing providers thru the years have been for things like moving or needing a provider that could fit with my schedule. My current neurologist, Dr Edward Zdobylak, listens to me, validates my thoughts and concerns and has listened to me from the start about what works for me and what doesn't. Some visits have felt a bit rushed, so I started making a list of things to discuss beforehand. That has helped tremendously. Currently, Botox for migraines has been working extremely well as a preventive for my chronic migraine. I'm typically sent to the Carmel location for my Botox injections to be able to keep to the 12 week schedule and maximize my migraine relief. The same medical assistant frequently does my injections for me, and I do really like her. She is friendly, personable and remembers me and things we've discussed previously. Office staff is friendly and welcoming. If they aren't busy, they often make chatter while getting your paperwork and such wrapped up. The Carmel location doesn't have free Wifi and my cell service is terrible in this building. Thankfully they have never left me waiting more than 15 minutes. My only real complaint is the struggle to get timely responses to refill requests. 9 times out of 10, it takes calling my doctors assistant twice within 3/4 days to get a response and then a refill sent. It has been like that consistently for the 3 years that I've been with Dr Zdobylak. I've complained a few times and nothing changes. So I've just accepted it for what it is because I don't want to change neurologists. I thought possibly the issue may be with the way the doctors travel about, but I used the Anderson location for many years and never had this issue.

    I had to wait over 40 minutes on the phone just to cancel an appointment. I believe I was…read moreovercharged, but it's too difficult to get anyone on the phone to address the billing question without waiting a hour on hold. Medical assistant wasn't responsive to medical question/message. Office environment is very dated (not that, that's a priority for me). Dr diagnosed me with vestibular migraine before further testing, further testing then came back abnormal so vestibular migraine was misdiagnosed. I never got a call back. Overall, did not have a great experience and will go elsewhere in the future.

However, I was unable to get past the rude receptionist. I had called to see if Dr. Smartt was accepting new patients. The person on the phone indicated that he was taking new patients. She said I needed a referral. I explained that I was currently see a Neurologist however I wanted to see Dr. Smartt instead. She said I needed to have my records sent to the office. I went on line and filled out the documentation, when to the office to take the application along with my insurance card and identification. She stayed on phone after I walked in. Another person came in behind me. She got off the phone, spoke with him for a few moments and then he went to sit in the waiting room. Meanwhile, I am waiting to see if she will address me since I had been waiting for her to get off the phone and to speak with me. Finally, I walked up to her desk and explained I was the person who had called to see if Dr. Smartt was accepting new patients. I told her I had filled out the documentation on line and that I had filled out the request to have my records submitted to Dr. Smartt. She took the paperwork and said she would call after she received the records. A week has past, I had not heard anything from Dr. Smartt's office so I called to see if the person at the front desk had received the documentation, she said she had not received the documentation. I contacted the other office, they indicated they had sent all documentation to Dr. Smartt's office and that they had document to show date and time. I ask if they could resend the documentation. They had no problem resending the documentation. After they sent the documentation they called me back to let me know they had resent all documentation. After two weeks of not hearing anything from Dr. Smartt's office, I called his office to ask if they had received my records from the other office. The person who answered the call asked me for my information of which I gave her. She then placed me on hold for 23 minutes and never returned. I called back, and the answering machine immediately sent me to voice mail. I called back again, this time it gave me a message saying that they could not see me until they had receive all records. The documentation as sent twice as of today (a month later) no follow-up phone call. I also hope that the person who did not follow up has shredded all my PHI as well as the copy of my insurance card and my ID. Needless to say, I never got to meet Dr. Smartt. I will never know if Dr. Smartt was a good as the young lady had indicated. Hopefully, if you want to see Dr. Smartt you will find a way to see him, as I was unable. Good Luck

    12 years ago my husband was sent to Dr. Eric Horn by an Evansville Neurosurgeon, because he was…read more"the best". Another Doctor at Goodman Campbell said that all of the big cases were given to Dr. Horn. He had a 10-1/2 hour surgery, with rods and screws placed in almost all of his lower back. My husband came out of that surgery with no pain at all, even though he was in terrific pain before. Dr. Horn said that he had a very high tolerance for pain. But even so, 7 of Dr. Horn's team came to the room throughout his stay of 4 days to see this guy with no pain after that huge surgery. You could tell that all of them respected Dr. Horn immensely. He refused all pain medication until the nurses finally persuaded him because they explained to him that they needed to stay ahead of the pain. (What pain? LOL) He came home and put the pain pills in the cabinet. He has since had 2 other surgeries done by Dr. Horn on different parts of his spine, plus carpal tunnel surgery. I recently had ACDF surgery on my neck - July 21, 2022. I too had no pain. In fact, the relief was immediate! Dr. Horn has always been patient, kind, and friendly. After my post-op visit, he asked if I had any questions for him. He has always been on time, and never seems to be in a hurry to get rid of us. Several friends and family members have asked for his info so that they could make an appt. with him, even though we are 3 hours away. (Further for some family members.) He is not surgery-happy. If he cannot help you, he will tell you, and tell you why. Wonderful Doctor! Mary M. Haubstadt, IN

    My husband had a cervical fusion of C4-C6 in February 2026 and has been in more pain since the…read moresurgery. Dr Shannon McKenna was the surgeon and kept rescheduling the follow up appt with the excuse of being in surgery. By the 3rd reschedule we had had enough and go figure he wasn't in surgery and was able to keep the appt. I normally do not leave reviews but I've had to watch my husband suffer through the most excruciating pain since the end of November 2025 that intensified tenfold at the end of February. I took over the communications between the Drs office and my husband because he was too frustrated and miserable to deal with it. We were constantly calling the office for help ..... finally scheduled another MRI of cervical spine to "find out what was going on". Luckily I set up an account and read the report and had access to the images within a day of having the MRI. Almost 2 weeks later the NP calls me to tell me everything looks good and the Dr is referring him to pain management. I read the report and it clearly said he has a pinched nerve root just under C6..... she never once mentioned that until I asked about it. And then blew it off as if it was nothing. When we went to this surgeon my husband had pinched nerves in the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine that the Dr was aware of. I questioned her about this referral and called her out on the fact this surgeon was just pushing him off to pain management instead of actually trying to help him find the problem and fix it. My husband has no desire to be on any opioid to mask the pain. He wants to find the problem; fix the problem. Needless to say I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE FOR ANYONE! The office staff was FANTASTIC! The surgeon Shannon McKenna was the absolute worst doctor I have ever interacted with. Before the surgery we did not have any kind of explanation of what to expect for the day of surgery, the aftercare, the process for afterwards whether or not he will have physical therapy, how long the recovery is, nothing. See you this day this time have a good day. We had to ask them about physical therapy during the follow up appt and were told we could do it if we wanted to. We are now 6 months out and my husband hasn't been able to return to work for 9 months. He struggles to take deep breathes, moves just right and his body locks up, wakes up in pain, troubles moving his neck, laughing can stop him in his tracks. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS! No respectable Doctor would wash their hands of someone who is so obviously in severe pain that they just can't take anymore. No Dr McKenna refers him to pain management and dismisses him as a patient "due to being confrontational" - which is a joke because they haven't even dealt with him since May! So what is he hiding From? Only time will tell as we get into the new doctors to find out. I highly recommend to NOT see this surgeon if you have any need to visit this place!

    I was referred by my PCP in February for neurological issues. I finally was able to schedule an…read moreappointment for MAY. I saw the doctor, and he was fine. He ordered an MRI of my brain to rule out any problems. That's where things went south. They referred me to a facility that was out-of-network for my insurance (apparently they couldn't be bothered to check), then dropped the ball. I had to call back, several times in fact, and they gave me the name of another MRI facility to call and the number. So I tried to call -- that number did not exist. I was able to find the correct number and called. Guess what? They had never received the orders from JWM! Apparently JWM staff had faxed it to the wrong number. Who knows where my medical info is now??? Anyway, I called JWM back and left a message (you can never talk to an actual human) with the CORRECT fax number. Several days went by -- crickets from everybody -- so I called the MRI place again and scheduled the appointment, assuming (stupidly) that the paperwork had been faxed. I got a call from the facility the day before the MRI telling me they still hadn't received insurance approval for the scan. I checked my insurance account online and the referral had NEVER been submitted by JWM! I know, shocker, right?? The MRI appointment was canceled, I immediately called JWM and left a message (again, nobody answers the phone) telling them what happened. That was over a week ago and I've heard nothing from JWM. Interestingly, I have a follow-up appointment next week to discuss the results of my MRI. What a joke! You mean the MRI that hasn't happened yet because nobody wants to do their job? What are we supposed to discuss? I've had it and am going somewhere else. I called a new neurologist's office this morning and they asked if I've seen a neurologist before. I relayed this story -- without mentioning any names -- and was told, "I'll bet I can guess where you went." She assured me those things would never happen at their office. So today I have changed the referral with my insurance company, contacted the new doctor's office, and have an appointment. All in the same day! Back in the beginning of this fiasco, I was warned about the office staff and the problems. I'm just sorry I didn't heed the warnings. It's now almost July and I've been waiting nearly five months to find out my issue. I will NEVER go to any of their offices again and will tell everybody I know to steer clear. Too bad, because I liked the doctor and thought he was very knowledgeable and thorough. Something needs to be done.

    Received a referral from my cardiologist to JWM, and was told they would call to schedule. 2 weeks…read morelater, I called to check on the appointment since I had not heard anything. I left a number for a callback. Nothing. 35 days after the referral I called again, and finally received a return call. The "lady" that called me had a total case of attitude. Before receiving the call, I had researched the practice reviews. I responded to the attitude by explaining that I understand why they have a 1.3 rating out of 5, and had neither the time nor patience for such nonsense, and would seek another practice. I have a very complex medical history and I am new to Indiana. I must say, when it comes to neurology, I am not impressed. Be your own advocate, or have someone knowledgeable advocate for you. But you do NOT need to tolerate this behavior from ANY medical "professional." Too bad ratings do not go below one star. And yes, it was the office staff, not the doctor giving me attitude. I can't speak for others, but can you trust a physician with your healthcare needs who obviously can't even monitor or control the office staff? I can't. I have had extensive experience with neurology, neurosurgery, cardiology, hematology, both vascular and orthopedic surgery in the Cleveland Clinic, OSU, UC, and UWV with top notch treatment across the board from skilled professionals referring me when an issue was outside their scope. Unfortunately not my first rodeo. But there is absolutely no reason for such treatment before ever seeing a physician. If some wannabe office sergeant can't handle a simple referral, what will happen when you really need information relayed to your provider? I didn't request the appointment, myself. My cardiologist sent a referral on my behalf. I will be making certain he reconsiders referring to this office again. All that's really needed to change his mind is to have him read this page.

They think they are smarter than you and everyone else and they treat you and your pain as if it is nothing but they want you to show up once a month so they can collect their money from you. On top of the doctor being a jerk I arrived at the office for a noon appointment at 11am and wasn't seen until 2pm and then when I was seen the nurse didn't even take my blood pressure correctly putting the cuff around my forearm instead of above my elbow. I wouldn't go back to this place if you paid me. The only thing positive about this place was the receptionist was nice.

There are over a dozen offices throughout the Midwest if this office isn't convenient. Parking is convenient with a parking garage under the building with the elevator going directly to Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine's Office on the 2nd floor. Dr. McCanna is very approachable and easy to talk too. He reviews Xrays and MRI in layman terms and takes the time to answer any and all of my questions. His surgical description is clear and easy to follow. Scheduling me with Dr. Wilson for a nerve block reduced the pain almost immediately until I was ready for surgery and a true blessing. Dr. McCanna is thorough, doesn't take unnecessary risks or rush to surgery if he feels there are unnecesaary risks during or after with healing i.e. postponing my surgery due to a A1c number to high risking my healing process. I was scheduled for surgery to replace my C-6 and C-7 due to degenerative disc disease. The day of surgery went well and I felt I was in excellent hands. I was still nervous but the surgical team did a great job reassuring me. I have to give a huge shout-out to Emma Schulte, Dr. McCanna's Neurosurgical Physician Assistant, who is invaluable, totally accessible and has a fabulous rapport with her patients. She provided follow up calls as promised, interacted with my liver doctors and transplant coordinator and I always felt she was on top of my case. I cannot say enough great things! My four week post op visit went quickly and smoothly. Xrays are done in office 15 minutes prior to physicians appointment by a very nice, friendly tech. The wait time was minimal for all appointments. My scar has healed nicely and is barely noticeable on my neck. Great job and thank you Dr. McCanna! I still have a couple additional follow up appointments until I'm back to 100% but I feel like I'm almost there. Thank you to all who participated in my treatment plan.
