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.

A really good surgeon.

Amazing. Dr Bahari is absolutely wonderful, compassionate, and caring. He repaired 5 spinal levels for me after 2 previous surgeries done elsewhere. He explained everything to us and what to expect. My follow up care has also been wonderful. If I ever need surgery again I will only be seeing Dr. Bahari!

Dr Bahari has me feeling great. He explains everything in detail. I was walking fine 6 hours after surgery I’m not at 100% but I’m still in the healing process. But I can say I’m on my way to being 100%better. Dr you did an amazing job I would refer anyone to you your awesome.

Surgery for cervical stenosis of spinal canal and evacuation of subdural hematoma. Dr. Bahari performed two surgeries of major complexity with a very positive outcome. He was very compassionate in informing others as to risks and updates prior to, during, and post surgery. He also performed an additional surgery a month later for left side drainage for Empyema with the same positive results and the same compassionate behavior. I highly recommend Dr. Bahari for any spinal or craniotomy surgeries.

Dr. Bahari was the neurosurgeon for my laminectomy in 2018. My lower spine is lumbarized, but Dr. Bahari was already really familiar w/ this & how it would affect surgery. He's really confident in his skills honed by years of experience; it was comforting to know he had all the answers to my questions! The surgery was a success--I was walking without the usual leg and back pain the very next day. The incision was very clean and is healing nicely. So thankful Dr. Bahari was assigned my surgery!
