I'm so sorry about your back!
It's kind of weird that he doesn't listen to his voicemail himself. Does it say so in the message? I'd be freaked out if I thought I was leaving him a confidential message and found I wasn't. Not to mention having it passed on incorrectly. That's a mighty big slip up on his office staff's part.
I'm glad he tried to be kind after he found out. I hope he follows it up with some instructions to his staff about properly taking a message. I think probably only you can know if he fulfills your needs enough for it to be worth his limits.
I don't think I could live with knowing I could never reach my therapist outside session. In fact, the more available he makes himself to me, the less often I call him at all. But that's me.
