Had no problem with Dr McCombe and the after care he has provided since my surgery. He is thorough and his receptionist is very prompt in getting things organised. Highly recommend

Rude, arrogant, didnt listen about symptoms and pain and assumed everything without looking at scans. His receptionist is so arrogant and slow. Save your time and see someone else

Great service at reception. Very helpful. Excellent treatment by knowledgeable surgeon. Spent a lot of time explaining things. Very pleased with the outcome of my consultations and my subsequent surgery. I am surprised at the negative review given as Dr McCombe is probably the most senior experienced spine surgeon in Queensland. I was referred to him by his own fellow surgeons as the best.

Please do not waste your time and energy seeing this doctor that is not helpful. If I am only seeing him then I will most likely killing myself. I am so happy to be pain free after surgery by another surgeon. Shame on you.

After a few consultation, which i am now in nowhere. I call to make an appointment again but the receptionist said i need to see another specialist as i will not be seeing Dr peter McCombe. Wow that is very helpful to send me out in this way, did not even recommend to any specialist. If i have problem after ops, i think they will hang out your call...that is NOT GOOD !!!

In a word brilliant! In my opinion he is one of the best spine surgeons in Australia. I was told by many other surgeons that nothing could be done for my back pain. After extensive investigatons and consulting with colleagues here and overseas Dr McCombe performed a multiple level fusion and corrected the deformity that was causing my pain. I am now out of pain, straighter and taller!. I wake up every day to a new life and I am grateful. At all times he was upfront with me about the success rate, the potential risks and complications of the surgery. Totally patient with me through the whole rehab process. In his waiting room I have met many other patients with similar stories. Not only is he a great surgeon but an engineer and designer. He developed the implant that was used in my surgery and it is used all over the world. I highly recommend this doctor.

After surgery which was undertaken on X-rays and no more he failed to see the complexity of my situation ,and shall we say ‘stuffed it up ‘ and worsened my condition and informed me that it was all in my mind .Several months later after MRI results revealed the true state of the damage from the accident and botched surgery
I was sent to endure another bout of his arrogance and disassociation with the problem or any ownership of his arrogant ill-informed diagnose and my subsequent situation .Would I let this man preform on myself or any of my family ,NO !

I had surgery performed last year which was a disc replacement and a fusion at 2 levels in my lumbar spine. I had an excellent result. Could not be more pleased with my care and recovery. I highly recommend dr McCombe to anyone looking for true expertise in the spine. Sam

I had second surgery after 15 years of good result from first surgery. Excellent result and I am back on my feet. Lovely man. Supportive staff. Thank you Dr McCombe.

I don’t know whom is more arrogant and dismissive, him or his receptionist.
I have spent a year seeing this doctor and I have no resolution to my back problems. In fact when I tried to tell him my symptoms had gotten worse, he spoke over me and pretty much told me it was too complicated.
I’ll not waste any more time on this man, nor would I ever recommend him to anyone I know.
