Dr. Chow took over in 2018 from Dr. Steinke back in 2002. Large Aneurysm found in 2001 and another found in 2018 now Dr. Chow h.as found another in 2020 so he is keeping an eye on it just in case i get another one in a bad area. The damage from the first one makes it almost impossible to operate again. Thank you for being such a fantastic Neurosurgeon.

Excellent doctor. He explained everything to me in detail and ensured that I wouldn't worry. He called me after to let me know what kind of tumour I had and is ensuring proper follow ups. Thank you so much!

Dr.Chow saved my life. I suffered for months after one appointment he had me in for surgery 4 days after first appointment. Not only was everything so fast, he checked in multiple times and talked to me multiple times before and after the surgery, he also calmed nerves about the surgery. I highly recommend. You are in great hands with this doctor.

Dr Chow is a great surgeon! He was extremely helpful and caring. I had been suffering from a herniated disc for over a year. I was to the point that I could barely walk without pain in both my legs. He explained my options but recommended sugery. I recently went through a microdiscectomy and immediately felt a difference after surgery. I can’t thank him enough for helping me get my life back. I am on my way to recovery and all thanks to Dr.Chow and his team!!! Thank you!

He is an extremely knowledgeable and very helpful doctor. He is very caring towards his patients and makes sure that they are able to handle things on their own before rushing them out of the hospital. Even if you have a question or concern that comes up years after your surgery, he is more than willing to help you out.

I have never had surgery before and was quite nervous about my up and coming laminectomy. My appointments with Dr Chow were very positive and put me more at ease with the idea of an operation. Dr Chow is very knowledgeable and kind. My operation went very well and I am looking forward to my follow up appointment. Highly recommended.

I was disappointed with Dr. Chow’s treatment of my issue. He said numerous times (in the two meetings that we had) that he had never seen what I have and that if I did have surgery it would be challenging (surgery and recovery) and require two surgeons. Instead of finding someone who could give a definitive answer to my medical problem, he sent me away and told me to increase my medication to help with the pain, as he was unsure what to do. I understand, and appreciate, caution when dealing with such major surgery… but I am young, still in pain and my mobility and life is deeply affected. I am saddened that the cause is still not addressed and that a multitude of drugs covers the the problem.

Dr.Chow,was very good to answer all my questions before I chose to do the surgery. The day of the surgery we connected again to discuss my expectations were and what he felt he would be able to do to meet them with the surgery. The surgery was an immediate success and after 3 yrs of intense nerve pain, I am pain free. From stuffing myself with numerous drugs within 4 weeks of surgery I am down to one medication and weaning off of them as well. He and his team at the U of A have given me my life back. Thank you!
