I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Mitchell and his entire team. From the very first visit, everyone in the office was kind, professional, and genuinely supportive. His PA, Hailey, went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and cared for, both before and after surgery.

Dr. Mitchell himself is not only an incredibly skilled surgeon, but also one of the most compassionate physicians I’ve ever met. He personally called to check in on me multiple times after surgery, which meant so much.

After living with severe pain for over a decade, the thought of surgery was daunting. But waking up pain-free and, now just 9 days post-surgery, having less pain than I’ve felt in years has truly given me a new outlook on life. It feels like getting a second chance at living fully again.

Dr. Mitchell and his surgical team are absolutely top-notch. I feel beyond blessed to have been operated on by such a talented and caring surgeon. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone in need of spinal care.

Dr. Mitchell is a very compassionate and professional surgeon. His office, Colorado Orthopedic Consultants, has a very fine staff that helped me with my diagnosis, pre-operation and post operation care. They have earned and deserved the five star rating.

Dr. Mitchell is professional and the staff has been very helpful and friendly.
Doctor Mitchell was understanding since my first appointment. I was super nuevos and he explained the procedure to me in a way that I didn’t freak out. Doctor Mitchell has a very relaxing and soothing tone of voice that made me relax. After my first appointment I knew I was in very good hands and confident that everything was going to be fine.
He is very knowledgeable, precise and proficient in what he does.

Thank you Doctor Mitchell & his nurse Hailey.

Dr Mitchell completing changed my quality of life. I could barely walk when I first met with him. Now I’m a few weeks post surgery and on the road to gaining my life back. Truly couldn’t ask for a better experience or a more compassionate and capable surgeon.

Very happy with my first appointment with Dr Mitchell. He was very concerned with what I am going thru. Took time to answer my questions and explain what was going on and what needed to be done to help me. I am scheduled for surgery April 16 and feel I am in good hands.

Unfortunately I had an hour wait with nobody communicating the delay and the PA thought my injection had been cancelled. Not the best visit.

Dr. Mitchell was amazing. Thoughtful, detailed, proactive and a high sense of urgency. If I could give 6 stars I would!
Kendra G.
I was able to be scheduled for a first appointment 7 days from the day I called. Everyone that I have encountered so far have all been very polite very friendly the great atmosphere I love the energy there. And I am excited to hear that I am finally will most likely be able to get the surgery on my cervical spine! That was the head always been told to me that I was not eligible or whatever for the surgery because of the curve in my neck but now it is so far I am loving everybody there the doctor had listened to my concerns and I can be very talkative to put it nicely and the doctor did not show any signs of impatience with me.
