Dr. Tate was very friendly and personable. He made me feel heard and I felt comfortable speaking with him. His staff informed me of the delays and offered water. It was a great experience!

I’m sure he’s very knowledgeable and perhaps a good surgeon but my possible cancer diagnosis was thrown at me with extreme casualness. This was without any convincing data or images to show for it when there were a ton of other possibilities in my case. Bedside manners and scientific integrity does and should matter.

Dr Tate is the best! He performed my surgery to remove the meningioma. He thoroughly explained the illness & procedure to me my family, putting us at ease. He continues to show great care in my health and the prevention of tumors reoccurring.

He seems to genuinely care about his patients and listens to my concerns without interrupting me or interjecting. He seems to love what he does and you can tell he is passionate about it which makes me feel comfortable and secure in his care. he put in a new VP shunt for me and he seemed so elated that it was working well for me which is always great to see as a patient. He is also very thorough and a member of his staff responds very quickly to my mychart messages which is important when dealing with a vital organ.
