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.

Downhill Doctor
ZERO stars! From my experience, he does not make his patients his priority! He should not have a practice! He tried to perform a 3-level fusion on my lower back and after a year since my surgery the front part of my foot is still numb, tingling and my toes feel like they are on fire. Also, I have lower back stiffness and pain! Furthermore, at my first office visit I asked if he could replace some discs in my neck instead of fusion after correcting issues in my back n he said I also needed fusion there! Since he messed my back up, I found a surgeon that said if a doctor wanted to fuse my neck it was because he wasn’t a very good doctor! New Doctor replaced 3 discs n it was 100% successful with no issues! Do a thorough research on Doctor J.! Had I known what transpired in his past I never would have stepped foot in his Practice! DO NOT be fooled by positive reviews! DO NOT TRUST this person with your health!

5 star. Dr Januszewski diagnosed and treated my mom who had NPH. He saw the urgency of her condition and we moved towards a surgical date. Dr. Januszewski explained the condition and treatment so that we could understand the procedure and process. He is professional, yet was able to make us chuckle a few times which was really needed. He has great bedside manner and stopped by a few times prior to surgery. We are still in the post op process, but the surgery was a huge success and we are so grateful. We highly recommend Dr. Januszewski for your Brain/Spine surgical needs. Please spread the word to your friends and family to research this amazing doctor. You wont regret it. Thank you Dr. J!!!!!

Dr J Is an awesome NSG from my first initial visit, my second visit and then having to have surgery. He explained exactly what was needed and is such a caring doctor, who listens and explains your health so you understand it. All of his staff is very nice too! Blessed to have such an excellent NSG in this area. Especially when you are a complicated patient and he understands your rare chiari medical condition.

Dr. Januszewski was very thorough when reviewing my X-ray and MRI. He was very patient with me and answered all of my questions. He was also very thorough in his explanation of what he could do surgically to correct my back issues.

Dr. Januszewski was highly recommended to us by our primary care physician. Our first impression upon meeting him was that he was cordial, yet very focused on his Q and A of my situation. His thorough explanation of my specific issues was clear and reassuring. We feel very confident in receiving his guidance. Additionally, his office personnel were organized and very cordial as well.
