My whole family is current patients of Dr. Cornett, and now adding my husband to that list.

Wait time is long

Both my wife and I were very impressed with Dr. Cornett. He put our mind at ease.

I already have and will continue to recommend Dr. Cornett to people I know

Complete, consise, knowledgeable.

Good

I think highly of Dr. Cornett and his staff

Answered all my questions

My biggest concern was whether or not I could return to full golf. Both Dr Cornett and his resident (Peter) were professional and informative, and provided positive guidance which I am following today.

Dr Cornett is amazing. He was very honest about the health of my back and said there were several ways to approach fixing the problem. I TRUST the decisions he will make during surgery

Dr always seems to have time for us

I have recommended many people to Dr. Cornett. Everyone has loved their results.

Dr. Cornett was excellent. He explained my options and the best course of treatment.

Good

This was the first time I've seen any of my CT Scans, X-Rays, since being diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma in March 2025 and it really helped me understand my situation and make an informed decision regarding surgery.

Dr.Cornett has provided me excellent care from my initial consultation, the surgical procedure and follow up for 2 years. I feel so fortunate to have been referred to him. I am forever thankful that he got me back to my active lifestyle and pain free

Dr. Cornett did a great job of listening to me, addressing my issues, speaking to me about care options, and treating me as if they truly cared about me as a person and finding a resolution to my issue

Dr. Cornett talks very fast. No decisions were made as I needed to get a new MRI, which I asked about when I made the appointment over 3 months ago, and they said I did not. We did not talk about recovery.

The x-ray tech was great, and so was the physician assistant who saw me prior to Dr. Cornett

If I didn't like/respect Dr. Cornett so much, I probably would have left because of the wait time.

Dr. Cornett is excellent. He listened to my concerns and helped me formulate a plan. X-ray tech was also excellent

My physician legitimized my concerns, explained the symptoms, involved me in making a plan

There aren't enough words I could say about Dr. Cornett , he's caring, understanding and always has my best interest at heart. There is NOT a spine surgeon anywhere in any state better than Dr. Cornett, I was walking bent over for a few years but had to fix other problems due to scoliosis. I have had 7 spine surgeries, Dr. Cornett has done my last 5 surgeries and because of him doing this last surgery I am walking standing up straight which is a miracle, I was so bent over from scoliosis. I only wish I would have come to UNMC Orthopedics from the very beginning. It's been a tough road for me but I knew I always had him in my corner. UNMC is privileged to have him!!!!!

Dr Cornett is extremely professional as well as being an excellent surgeon. He exhibits care and concern for his patients and talks with then, NOT at them. I am very glad he performed my surgery.

Dr Cornett was top notch in all patient care areas. Could not have been more impressed.

Dr Cornett & his PA were both very good.

Dr. Cornett was very reassuring and knowledgeable. He made us feel like the problem I have can be solved. I'm very thankful that he will be doing my surgery.

Dr. Cornett was actually early to my appointment, which was unexpected because he always takes his time visiting with patients. And I so appreciate him taking his time to visit with me, so I expected he would be visiting with other patients before me. I would not be upset if he was detained by working with patients before me, but that didn't happen. I would highly recommend Dr. Cornett to my friends with chronic back problems. He's awesome! His staff Is awesome also.

Dr Cornett and his staff are awesome. I trust them especially Dr Cornett!

Dr. Cornett is the best!!

The minute Dr Cornett came into the room and introduced himself I felt very comfortable with him. He was attentive and listened to what I had to say and he explained the next steps very openly with me.

The dr was very personable, excellent explanation of MRI/x-ray results & physical assessment to support treatment.

Dr Cornett thorough, sincere, interested in every detail, and provides enough time for a complete conversation.

Dr Cornett is great

Dr. Cornett is an outstanding physician and will recommend him to anyone that I know with ortho injuries or problems. He explains issues very well, and answers all questions. Never feel I'm being rushed.

Showed and explained x-rays. Talked about potential treatments as well as what would not be able to change or fix so to speak. Did not seemed rushed when explaining. Ask me what questions I had.

Everybody and everything about our visit was very good. My only "complaint" is having to wait 30 minutes to see the doctor. I also understand things happen and emergencies occur, but try to adhere 2 appointment times as closely as possible.

There's not a better spine surgeon in the world!!!!

The doctor was excellent.

I recommended Dr. Cornett to my sister.

I was very impressed with Dr. Cornett. He took time to listen to me and explained his assessment and treatment recommendations clearly.

Chris Cornett is a rock star

Dr. Cornett is fantastic!

The doctor explained everything in detail and showed me the specific problem areas on the x-rays and scans, and explained how he would surgically treat those areas in easy to understand terms. He took his time with me and discovered another problem that will need to be addressed in the future. Super nice guy, very personable and very knowledgeable.

Chris Cornett is great. We're lucky to have him in Omaha

Dr. Cornett and staff are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. They listen, care, take appropriate time. Suggest, help, and extremely knowledgeable. I recommend to all in need.

Dr Cornett is amazing! He anticipates every question and answers them so all can understand!

Both Megan and Dr. Cornett were very willing to talk with me about my concerns. They did not rush and explained their assessment of my images and concerns thoroughly. They also solicited and responded to my questions. The entire experience was beyond what I expected. I would highly recommend them.

Cornett spent plenty of time with me and didn't appeared to be rushed. He answered all of our questions and explained how the potential surgery would take place. Also broke down the risks and rewards

He is a very good Doctor

Great Doctor, I recommend him to anyone.
