Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

MRI Focus Ultrasound Procedure for tremors
Dr. Azmi is a very caring and unbelievably nice doctor. He makes every visit personal, and makes sure that you feel comfortable with his answers to your questions. He has changed my life in ways that I cannot describe. At first my right hand was shaking so much that it made everyday living difficult. After he performed the essential tremor MRI Focus Ultrasound Procedure, my hand was no longer shaking. I was his first patient in New Jersey for this procedure. When my left hand started to do the same, he once again performed the same procedure on my left hand. He changed my life and gave me back my confidence. I am thankful everyday for what he has done for me. Dezso Balint

Meningioma removal surgery
Dr Kazmi & his team performed brain tumor removal surgery & I was discharged without pain within 2 days. He & his team answered all questions clearly & patiently both before & after surgery. Follow up visit at office was superb, again answering any questions with patience & professionalism. Would highly recommend Dr Kazmi & am grateful for the high level of care I received.

Dr Kazmi is a very nice guy and after reviewing my case we did an 8hour spinal fusion surgery. Now looking at films , L5 was over a cm out of line and later all was screwed and bolted srtait. So Dr was happy but my pain was lowered and doubled. I wake up every day in agony. Getting up to use bathroom is an agonizing choice about how much it will hurt. I am much worse off for having the surgery and am trying to find a way to stop the pain. Dr Kazmi is good if you want it on paper. Not in real life pain relief

I went to Dr. Kazmi for my back pain. After a thorough examination he located the source of my pain and devised a plan. He listened to me, and answered all of my questions in simple language that I was able to understand. I could feel that he truly wanted to help and that was so refreshing. Dr Kazmi is a skilled practitioner, a great asset to our community. In addition his responsive and friendly staff certainly deserves this five star rating.

I was truly BLESSED to have a craniotomy performed by Dr. Kazmi! Although my condition is Malignant, he performed the surgery very well and has given me a better chance of living a normal, extended life! I was so pleased with his knowledge and wonderful demeanor. I have terminal cancer, yet, he left me with a positive outlook on my future and supplied me with an excellent neuro-Oncologist!

I saw him yesterday. Horrible! Horrendous! I was sent to him because I have herniated & bulging discs & extreme pain. My walking & balance are awful. I’ve also lost disc height in my neck. He quickly glanced at my MRI & told me there was nothing he could do. I asked about the pain. He shrugged his shoulders & said I don’t know. He didn’t as me any questions. He didn’t examine me beyond my reflexes nor did he ask me to walk. I asked if he could refer me to another Dr. He said no. He wished me good luck & left the room. I was speechless! Don’t waste your time nor subject yourself to such callous, uncaring treatment. He should not be allowed to practice medicine. I’d rate him negative stars if it was an option.

Dr. Kazmi is a phenomenal neurosurgeon! I've had 2 surgeries so far with him and my third is scheduled very soon. He takes his time, listens, has compassion and very trustworthy. I've been to so many doctors in the past for my cervical spine problems and I can't thank him enough for helping me find the answers. I trust him 100% he has an awesome bed side manner. So grateful I found Dr. Kazmi to help me! His staff is also phenomenal, they know their stuff! Awesome ladies : )

I was so scared when i learned I needed brain surgery. He took his time explaining everything to me. Down to the last detail, on "will you be shaving off my hair" and "what kind of scar should I expect" He made me feel so at ease. The 8hr surgery was amazing. Hardly any hair loss. Hardly a scar. His staff always there to answer my questions when i came home. I recommend him constantly.

Sincere, genuine Doctor! Came to see my family around midnight upon entering hospital, spent lots of time with us, gently explaining my grandmothers condition, and stated that doing surgery would do more harm with little chance of improvement in her specific circumstance. He even said if she was his mom, he wouldn't operate. He was so sensitive, very kind, allowed us to ask lots of questions even though it was super late, and really comforted our hearts. God bless him for being honest!

Abrupt! Don't believe he read my MRI results or looked at my films. My primary doctor referred me to a neurosurgeon because of my DDD (a condition he treats) and moderate stenosis of the t11/t12 (also a condition he treats). I'm sure if I had better insurance he would of been more attentive and helpful!

After going to three doctors who couldn't find what the pain was coming from, Dr Kazmi took the time and listened and ordered more tests and found the problem. I had the surgery and was up and walking right after surgery. Pain was gone immediately. Recovery time was much faster than expected and I owe it to to Dr. Kazmi's expertise.

On June 8 arrived at Jersey Shore Hospital at 9:00 AM for surgery. Never saw Kazmi until 2:30. He said h'd be back. At 3:30 I left the hospital. Never saw Kazmi again. Wrote two letters and I've yet to hear from him. He's the only surgeon to ver have done this, and I've had mor that 28 procedures to date. He's a horror!!!
