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.

After breaking my foot, I had such an amazing experience with Dr. Lewin, Dr. Popowitz, and Dr. Sarraf, not to mention the professional front desk and surgical coordinators who work at this practice. They gave me treatment options, answered all my questions patiently, and were overall extremely knowledgeable and caring. Highly recommend this well-run medical group and feel very confident with the care they give.

I had awful neck pain for the past ten years that was impacting my life tremendously. I had gone to many spinal specialists that were never able to treat me. A friend recommended I see Dr. Lewin, after having my consult with him I knew I was in good hands . Dr. Lewin had so much patience and care for me that I never got anywhere else. Aside for his excellent bedside manner, he diagnosed my condition correctly. He is a real deal specialist. I’d only feel comfortable seeing him as my spine specialist. If you are looking for a spine Specialist look no further.

Initially I was referred to Dr. Lewin by a provider. I also heard about him from from around. Word on the street is that he’s a big surgeon and that is definitely true!! He has great bedside manner, kindness and a caring person . When Dr. Lewin saw me , he told me what I could do. From that point on , my visits have always been a pleasant experience. I was scheduled to have a surgery. Before it took place, I wanted to talk to him, he called on his cell phone after hours to answer all my questions. On the day of surgery, Dr. Lewin calmed me down and put me in a better place mentally. I knew he would do a great job and I was in good hands. After surgery on the second day, he came to see How I was doing. His bedside manner is excellent . A lot of providers are disconnected with their patients. He is different- he has tons of compassion . Before seeing Dr. Lewin I had a terrible condition. Dr. Lewin healed me , understood my needs and was always there for me. He is remarkable!!!

Dr. Lewin performed a spinal fusion and decompression on my L-3,L-4 and L-5; prior to this surgery I was on 1600 mg. of ibuprofen everyday and over a period of time, the stop working. When I went to his practice at Center for Musculoskeletal Disorders in Teaneck, NJ, I saw a doctor for pain management; he prescribed various treatments for me but to no avail. He recommended that I should speak with Dr. Lewin about surgery. Upon doing so, Dr. Lewin took his time explaining what my body was going through and how I would benefit from the surgery. Needless to say I did have the surgery and I am pleased to say I no longer experience the level of pain I had previously. His bedside manner and concern about my post op experience was beyond reproach. At my age a lot of my peers suffer from some form of back, shoulder or neck pain. I do not hesitate for a minute to suggest they reach at to Dr. Lewin

Kind, caring, compassionate, expert, experienced - those are the terms I'd use to describe Dr. Lewin. Friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, compassionate, great people skills - those are the terms I'd use to describe Dr. Lewin's staff! CMD (I used the Englewood, NJ location) is truly a special office - and the people determine how great a place is - this has all of the components of a place I highly recommend for your orthopaedic needs! I am extremely satisfied with my cervical fusion.

Dr Simhaee gave me my life back. I have spent the last two years with pain that was debillitating. I went to numerous doctors, chiropractors and acupuncturists, who couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. Luckily, i found Dr Simhaee, who determined that the pain was coming from my sacroliliac. I can't say enough about how much he helped me and how I recommend him to anyone experiencing pain.

Dr. Lewin saved my life and re birthed me a new way of living. I'm beyond grateful for all that he has done for me. He has gave me a new way of life he was so kind and professional and never in my life have I been so happy and satisfied if I could rate him 10 stars I would. I have the upmost gratitude that he was pushing for me not to give up in life. Usually doctors are so quick to brush us patients to the side. It is so rare to find a true professional wish high stamina and with a love and car

Dr. Lewin is an excellent listener, who actually gives excellent feedback to what the patient tells him. He was very kind about my lateness for my first (and, so far, only) appointment. His diagnosis was well thought out and was not rushed. My wife and I both greatly appreciate that. His office staff, especially Gabriel, was very helpful and patient when my wife had to re-schedule this appointment. Gabe, in particular, was anxious to help her any way that he could in this regard.

Dr Lewin has given me back my life! At a point when two other surgeons told me there was nothing they could do, he studied my history and all my tests and carefully plotted out a surgical plan. On my 74th birthday I had my surgery - a discectomy, and fusion using a cage, and plates and screws. At one year post op I am virtually pain free and leading the life I enjoy! I can never thank him enough and would not hesitate to recommend him to my friends and family. Truly a wonderful doctor!!!

Dr Lewin & his Staff are awesome! I had been in unbearable pain for 3 years after having an unsuccessful surgery on my lower back. I had been to numerous doctors and couldn’t find any answers or sympathy. After visiting Dr Lewin, he worked on a solution and formulated a plan to help me. He advised me to have the initial surgery re attempted, with a few changes. He performed the surgery as soon as we could and it was a great sucess!! I'm on my way to recovery, Thanks Dr Lewin!!
