Dr. Jason Lowenstein in a expert in his field and a caring doctor. He totally straightened me from having scoliosis and I am able to walk without pain. I had to go through a few surgeries but well worth it, as I am recovering very well! I have already recommended him to a friend and will continue to do so. He is the best in what he does.
Dr. Gatto is simply the best. He performed a discectomy to fix a bad herniated disc that caused 12 months of constant pain and discomfort. I felt relief immediately after the surgery and now, 4 months after the surgery, it's as if I never had the problem to begin with. He always made me feel comfortable and completely at ease about the procedure.
Dr. Naseef is an excellent surgeon who resolved my back issues. I suffered from December to April with chronic back pain, enduring injections, physical therapy, and bed rest. In April, the good Doctor operated on my back. I went into surgery in pain, and awoke several hours later pain-free. It has been over a year and I completely pain free.
