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.

I was referred to Dr. Hunt based on MRI results which reflected degenerative disc disease resulting in severe nerve pain from my lower back, through my hips, and down each of my legs. Dr. Hunt spent a great deal of time explaining my condition and answering all of our questions. The surgery performed by Dr. Hunt eliminated all of the pain I was experiencing. Dr. Hunt is not only a highly skilled surgeon, he is also an exceedingly nice person who will spend as much time as is required to answer all of your questions. I highly recommend Dr. Hunt.

I cannot thank Drs. Gabriel and Leonel Hunt enough! How do you thank someone who has given you your life back? I am 74 years old and had severe spinal stenosis, made worse by scoliosis. I had been putting off surgery for 40 years because I was so afraid something could go wrong. When I started staying home instead of accepting invitations to go out and have fun with my grandkids, I knew it was time. I went to every neurosurgeon in the Los Angeles area twice! I decided on Dr. Gabriel Hunt because he suggested the minimal amount of work (other doctors wanted to do more) and completely explained to me why that was the best decision. He is so knowledgeable, so understanding, so patient and so talented. I believed him, I trusted him and I so felt safe in his hands. It's really nice to go into surgery relaxed and knowing you are in the best of hands. I had a laminectomy on Oct. 28, 2020. The next morning I was walking around the hospital with absolutely no pain whatsoever. I co

Very thorough and informative from our first meeting. Procedure went extremely well. Recovery is continuing but seems to be proceeding well. Dr. Hunt's staff is also extremely helpful and responsive. Follow-up has been consistently excellent. This is one practitioner I could recommend without hesitation.

Dr Hunt removed a meningioma from my mom’s thoracic spine and did a wonderful job as I expected, but what I didn’t expect was how caring and personable he was. He called me personally several times and even gave me his cell in case I needed it. He worked past insurance issues and gave me assurance every step of the way. My family and I are forever grateful to him.

Dr. Hunt is an extremely thorough & caring neurosurgeon. He carefully evaluates your symptoms & thoroughly obtains all testing necessary prior to suggesting surgery. His bedside manner & followup is excellent & I am now making incredible improvements since my laminectomy & fusion just a few months ago. I feel so blessed that Dr. Hunt performed my surgical procedure & highly recommend him.

Surgery is never taken lightly and the decision never an easy one. The same day after spine surgery my dad was up an walking around and whereas he previously could not move without severe excruciating pain, after surgery the only pain he had was from the procedure and that quickly waned. My dad's quality of life increased ten-fold for the better and Dr. Hunt's genuine empathy for my dad's health was appreciated. Without Dr. Hunt, we definitely know that my dad would have ended up in a wheelchair

Doctor Gabriel Hunt is an excellent surgeon I would highly recommend him to anyone! He is extremely knowledgeable, kind and caring, He immediately put my mind at ease and I had complete confidence in him. He explained to me why I was not a candidate for an Artificial Disc Replacement and convinced me the Fusion was what I needed and explained his technique. Being in the medical field myself, I had many questions and he was able to answer them all to my satisfaction. I am very thankful to him.

Dr.Hunt is one of the most caring, patient and competent Dr.s I have ever met. After trying everything to avoid surgery, his gentle manner and comforting way I finally had a C-4 to C7 discectomy and fusion and was able to leave the hospital the same day! He and his brother who assisted are not only wonderful physicians, they use their talent helping people both in their empathic demeanors and their unbelievable talent and dedication!
