Dr. Chebuhar or Blumenthal Has anyone here had any experience or heard anything about either Dr. Chebuhar at Pinnacle Ortho in GA (Pinnacle Orthopaedics | Craig M. Chebuhar, M.D.) or About Dr. Scott Blumenthal of Texas Back?
Re: Dr. Chebuhar or Blumenthal Dr. Blumenthal does my ADR follow up and I love him. He is a great guy, very thorough and takes the time to explain things to you. I did not have surgery with him, because I was in a clinical trial and the Texas location had already completed all patients, he is one of the best ADR surgeons though.
