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.
It's been a month since Dr. Velimirovic operated on me and I can't help but thank Jehovah God first of all for being guided by the hands of Dr. Al Dr. For his excellent work, for having respected my beliefs and for being the great human being that he is. I am recovering without much pain and as of today 10-02-2024 I have not had any complications. I also recommend it one hundred percent to all its staff and I thank them for their excellent service.

Before going to Texas Dr V saved our 13 year old daughter’s life. She was diagnosed with a brain tumor after having headaches. In a small town Michigan hospital he went above and beyond the call of duty for our daughter and our entire family. Our daughter is now a grown married woman with a career and two children because God led us to Dr V We will never forget him. Such a brilliant neurosurgeon and wonderful man.

Dr. Velimirovic and staff are amazing. When I went the first time I was a mess. After talking to Dr. Velimirovic was very confident he could help me and he did. Had cervical spine surgery Oct. 2019 and lumbar spine surgery Feb.2020. I am now walking with no walker. I never thought I would feel this good again....

Dr. Velimirovic's office, was highly recommended to me, once I found out I had a herniated disc in my lower back. I'm so glad I chose Dr. Velimirovic as my surgeon. He was very thorough, explaining to me, my procedure, and my expected outcome. Dr. Sweet and his staff were awesome and very helpful!! I highly recommend Dr. Velimirovic!
