Ryan D. Snowden, M.D.

It's the best.

Trustworthy. Good listener. Terrific surgeon.

Great doctor down to earth easy to talk to and make the whole process easier.

I have to say how impressed I am with Dr. Snowden. He has treated me promptly as needed, I came in on crutches, not able to walk, and after surgery I was walking. He gave me my life back. Unfortunately, he is not rid of me yet due to my bad back genetics! Thank you for all that you do, in making a difference in peoples lives, and especially mine. ☺️

I was there a couple of hours and I got good news about my back and Doctor Snowden was very good and polite when talking to me I would recommend him to everyone.

I have had surgery by Drs Snowden, Langon and Glen. They are excellent others special areas and the support staff are kind and helpful. I would recommend them all !

Goated Doc!

Dr Snowden and the whole staff are fantastic! Never disappointed.

I had seen two other orthopedic surgeons and a neurosurgeon and they all just did not fit. I was not comfortable with their options on treatment or their office staff never knew what was going on. First visit with Dr snowden and I knew I had found the rite one. He listens and is honest would recommend to anyone. Needing his expertise.

A superior back surgeon.

Dr. R. Snowden is one of the Best Orthopedic Physician/Surgeon that I’ve ever come across and I’ve been to quite a few. He completed my Low Back Surgery and I was back to normal and healed in 16wks. In a few months I’m having him do my Neck as well. The entire staff of TOA are the nicest individuals to be working there. They address ALL of your questions & concerns. I will continue to use TOA & Dr. Snowden whenever I have issues that he can fix!

He is the best and friendly to .

I love this office! Everyone is so nice and helpful. I was in a motorcycle accident in Johnson City, TN last year and Dr Snowden took me on as a patient so I wouldn't have to travel 275 miles for follow-up. Top notch office!

Dr. Snowden is so attentive. He listened and explained everything the previous Dr did not! I love his personality and genuine human moral values his presence displays. A wonderful physician and wonderful staff!

Office staff was amazing and the doctor really listens

Great surgeon! Dr Snowden is top notch. Staff was some of the best.

Dr. Snowden has performed 2 surgeries on me, and he was very informative before the procedures and afterwards too. I will be recommending Dr. Snowden to family and friends if they ever have to have the type of surgeries that he specializes in.

Very professional & caring, Dr. Snowden was very thorough in explaining what the surgery entailed & how i was going to feel afterwards. At the Post-op visit he listened to my questions and explained what the different things I was feeling were from. I am very hopeful that this will be my last surgery for this issue, & I can get back to living a normal life.

Dr. Snowden did an amazing job at making me feel cared for with his humble, attentive attitude! Definitely recommend TOA!

Dr Snowden is super relatable and down to earth. Being a former spinal surgery patient, I have extreme confidence in his knowledge and ability to make the right choice for my care needs.

Dr Snowden has performed 2 different surgeries on my spine, 2 spinal fusions and 2 cervical fusions, giving me a better quality of life, at my 69 years of age. He is an exceptionally compassionate, friendly, knowledgeable young surgeon with whom me and my sons trust whole-heartedly. My surgical experiences were good, which he explained to its entirety. Healing resulted following his post-op instructions. He is a miracle servant in my eyes. The. Best. Dr Snowden’s PA, Gina B., also is very efficient, knowledgable, and caring. They work well together to give you a comfortable experience. TOA @One City, manages their appts with discipline, organization, being very effective. With the 2 surgeries I encountered, many appts before and after, each were very prompt. There is no long waiting. Dr Snowden and Gina B are caring professionals who have your best interest at heart. The. Best.

Dr. Snowden is an excellent surgeon. He was very professional and friendly and truly interested in doing whatever he and his staff could do to help you make a full recovery and get back to a healthy, active lifestyle.

My experience with Doctor Snowden was everything you could hope for in a Doctor's visit. Everything was very organized and on schedule . X rays were taken of all the relevant places and Doctor Snowden was very knowledgable of all the issues involved in my case. I found that he was extremely intelligent with a full understanding of my situation. He was able to explain things in a very simple concise manner that made sense even to a non medical person like myself. He gained my complete trust and I am very thankful I was able to be a patient of his. Would recommend as a 10 out of 10. . .

Awesome doctor that really listens!

I saw Dr. Snowden for neck and upper back pain and felt the visit was thorough and straightforward. My imaging was reviewed carefully, X-rays were taken, and treatment options were explained clearly without feeling rushed. I appreciated having a direct conversation about next steps and what could realistically help. Overall, a professional and helpful experience.

Detailed, took all the time I needed to answer questions. Extremely knowledgeable and experienced.

Dr. Ryan Snowden is the BEST Orthopedic Physician I’ve been to. So Nice, Knowledgeable, Professional, Caring, listened to ALL of my concerns and never rushed my visits. My Back Surgery was scheduled quickly & performed perfectly. I’m definitely using him on my Neck Surgery to follow. Kudos to him and his entire Staff!

Great experience. Very kind and informative

I knew dr Snowden was the right surgeon 10 minutes after I meet him. I had gotten to the point where I could not stand up.dr did such a great job of explaining the surgery in detail, I never once felt rushed. To make a long story short I saw him yesterday to do some X-rays and everything was perfect at w years out,I never had pain after he fixed me,I’m blessed that 6he lord lead me to him

Dr. Snowden is wonderful. He listens and understands patients pain complains. I would recommend him as a doctor.

On November 18th, 2025. I received Anterior/Posterior Thoracolumbar fusion surgery that was performed at the St Thomas Hospital for spinal surgery by the renowned and tremendously skilled Orthopedic surgeon Dr. Ryan D. Snowden, Thank you for your expertise. As there is no i in team, I would like to also thank Dr. Miller, PA Duff, PA Gina Barletta for their contributions. And I would like to give a quick thanks to all of the nurses and intake coordinators, especially Jennifer Chworowsky, Rachel Pope, Ashley Castillo and Ms. London, also thanking the Anesthesiologist and Anesthetist, the team of pre-and post op nurses, medical assistants, and kitchen personal. These highly skilled organized, and efficient people took care of me regarding all surgery aspects, and did a superb job during the interim of the procedure. I went to sleep warm, and I woke up warm to a welcomed hot meal, and some excellent sandwiches and a coke later on. I recommend this complete and caring team highly!

Very nice Doctor, explained my situation throughly

Dr. Snowden performed a very complicated two day operation on my back. He gave me my life back!

They explained the diagnosis and treatment. They answered all my questions

Dr. Snowden provided me with options after he listened to my concerns. Very knowledgeable and understanding. I look forward to my treatment plan.

It's easy to fine and access. Dr. Snowden is my surgeon. It's been rough and still having some issues. He has taken care of me for the most part. I have started to think that I was given a crappy back in life.

Would not trust anyone else

Very well experience , Dr Ryan Snowden is very nice , professional , but down to earth friendly , straight forward doctor . He believes in your rights as a patient and person .

He was very thorough and did not encourage surgery!

Great staff! Great doctor! I always leave deeply grateful for the thoughtful and considerate care received.

Dr.Snowdan very professional answer your question when ask would recommend him to anyone.

Dr Snowden performed a bilateral hemilaminectomy on me a few weeks ago. Surgery went excellent. I had concerns am that I talked to him about in my follow up appointment with him. He reassured me that what I was experiencing was completely normal and in due time I will “reep the benefits” (I am paraphrasing) of having the surgery. I left the follow up feeling reassured and confident I chose correctly with TOA and was lucky to have Dr Snowden perform my surgery. IF I need any other surgery it will be by him. I encourage others to look him up. Great bedside manner.

From pre to post op he's been great to take the time to listen and explain. I'd highly recommend him for treatment.

Dr Snowden has always been great. Informative and to the point. We always get in and out.

I was referred to Dr Snowden by another TOA doctor. I have scoliosis and was told Dr Snowden has a speciality in that field. I have had 2 appointments with him and am very impressed with his knowledge and experience. I would highly recommend him for his expertise in my condition and his plan for treatment.

Dr. Snowden was very pleasant, and gave me several options for my back issues. It was nice not to have a doctor rush me into a surgery, which I thought was the only thing for me to do. I felt relieved with the information he gave me to start and go forward with. Very enjoyable visit.

Dr. Snowden is amazing! He is friendly, knowledgeable and polite. He knew exactly what my issue was and was able to provide me with the treatment needed. I would recommend him to my family and friends. Alma
