Dr. Christopher R Good, MD

At 15, I had limited mobility, constant pain, and was unable to play soccer. Dr. Good and his staff transformed my life in one day with surgery. Dr. Good, along with his staff are trustworthy, reliable, and will always take the best course of action that aligns with the wants and needs of the patient. You can tell this is a great team environment and you will leave the office with all of your questions answered, and a clear explanation as to what may be going on and next steps.

Always friendly and willing to take the time with my current situation. Everyone from the time you walk in the door until you leave has your best interest in mind.

Dr. Good and the VSI team executed the most uninstrusive strategy to correct two major spine issues and a debilatating facet cyst. Within three months of surgery, I am living a pain free life and resuming all work, sports, social, and household activities without restriction. Dr. Good clearly articulated the diagnosis, surgical plan, and recovery expectations so there were no surprises along the journey. The VSI team was very professional, empathetic, responsive, and engaged on a personal level in my recovery success resulting in my recovery being ahead of schedule. I highly recommend Dr. Good and VSI!

I appreciated Dr.'s supportive, caring nature, patience and expertise for this important surgery

Dr Good is a very compassionate skilled surgeon. I never thought Id go from not being able to hold my head up or drive a car to completely normal in < 90 days. Spine Institute Staff including techs & PAs are just as nice. Thank You all!

Empathy, solicitation of feedback, accurate assessment of imaging/tests drove an exceptional surgical outcome which exceeded expectations!

I went to Dr. Good with severe back pain that I had come to believe was simply going to be something I would have to deal with. I was doing everything one could imagine to help my back and was avoiding surgery because I feared it and thought I could live with the pain. Thankfully a friend strongly recommended Dr. Good and my life went from living with pain and being limited in what I could, or would, attempt to do, to living pain free and able to do all the things I love and enjoy. In particular, Dr. Good was able to assess me condition and explain my condition. He gave me options and helped me understand the pros and cons of the options. I decided to have a full disc replacement and six-months post-operation, I can say Dr. Good gave me my life back. I strongly recommend his services.

We came to Dr Good because of his experience and the outstanding reviews he received. He has completely exceeded our expectations. He thoroughly studied the situation and recommended how to proceed, explaining everything along the way. Surgery went perfectly and the pain is already gone the day after surgery.

I felt like Dr Good listened to the pains I was having. He performed various tests to determine the options for fixing my problem. He was extremely patient and friendly. The surgery went so well and my post op was great.

Overall my experience has been excellent. I spent years seeing different physicians trying to get answer(s) to my lumbar and bilateral leg pain. I was referred to Dr. Good and VSI in 2020, and decided on 2-level lumbar hybrid surgery in 10/21. I am 6 months post-operation and doing well. Dr. Good and team told me to expect ups-and-downs in recovery and I have. I continue to improve and look forward to the next 6 months of starting to do activities that I have not done in years! I am very, very grateful for Dr. Good and VSI and everything they have done for me! They are awesome.

I thought I would need surgery and they provided options to avoid it. I couldn't be more pleased.

Came in to Virginia Spine 2 yrs ago, meet Dr good and his team and it has been great the whole process. The staff have been incredible to work with with my situation which was very bad. After nec k surgery and 6 level fusion on my spine i am pain free and getting back to the things i love to do.

Excellent

I visited 3 orthopedic doctors to get opinions on my lower back pain. When I met Dr. Christopher Good and his team, I knew I had found the doctor that would take the best care of me and I was right. I could stand and walk on my own within a few days of my surgery with no sciatic nerve pain or numbness. I did everything I could...from exercises, chiropractic, Physical Therapy to not have to have spine surgery, but nothing helped. So glad I did!!

Always very helpful and truly cares.

Dr. Good listened to my issues with pain, numbness, loss of function and thoroughly went through the scans/reports that I brought with me. He provided a complete diagnosis and offered disc replacement for my C5-C6. I had the surgery and felt amazing afterwards. In followup with PT and Dr. Good I have had complete healing and am amazed!

Dr. Good and his team were great every step of the way. I always felt comfortable and was well informed. Symptoms all gone and feel as good as new.

I had both a cervical fusion and stem cell treatment in my lumbar spine with Dr. Good. I was in a lot of pain prior to starting treatment at VSI, and another orthopedic specialist had indicated my only option was to take pain medication daily. Switching to VSI was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I am now medication free and climbed a 4000 foot mountain last weekend. I am so grateful to be able to resume all the activities I love. Thank you Dr. Good and the outstanding team at VSI.

Every person at VSI I encounter is kind and helpful. Dr. Good is an excellent physician - both in his knowledge of his field and also as a compassionate care provider.I had such a great experience with Dr. Good doing my scoliosis surgery I recommended him to my mom - and my mom only deserves the best! All in all I have had an excellent experience as a patient at VSI. Highly recommend.

Dr, Good and his team were amazing and with me through every step of my diagnosis and surgery. He found a crack in my spine when no one had caught it after years of pain. He literally saved my life by allowing me another chance at being able to live without pain. I highly recommend him and his team.
