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.

If I could give him 10 stars, I would
Dr. Sugarman is patient, kind, compassionate, and honest. He provided simple and practical solutions that were right on point. He went over both of my MRIs and addressed all four areas of concern. When you need a neurosurgeon, a good one is worth the drive and the wait. I did not have to wait long and drove almost 2 hours. His demeanor is so amazing and he is so competent that if I really needed him, I would fly across the country and sleep in my car to receive his care if I was able.

I have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING GOOD to say about my experience. I feel worse after two surgeries than I did before.

Dr. Sugarman has excellent people skills. He is a good listener and good communicator. I clearly understood my medical conditions after he answered all of my questions. He showed me my brain scans and explained. I would highly recommend him. I saw him after two separate accidents. I am doing well now. He is not quick to jump into surgery; he was willing to watch and wait and see what nature, God and time have to say for themselves first. Nice guy.
