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 rushed down to the Jefferson neuro science by Jeff Stat . Had a brain bleed that I didn’t know I had. This Doctor is the best!! Great bedside manner, friendly. I was in ICU for 5 days, the nursing staff was fantastic!!!

I do not recommend
Apparently the pre-approved routine six month MRI scan of my brain aneurysm to keep track of the growth rate that he prescribed was denied as 'not medically necessary' and that the doctor 'did not tell them it was at least six months'. So he lied to my insurance company. The MRI was 6 days after the 6 month mark of my first scan. Now I have to pay for the MRI out-of-pocket. And don't rely on the office to get your appointment correct. I made an appointment for my 6 month follow-up face-to-face and they still lost my appointment. Do not trust this office or doctor.

1st Impression
Excellent Bedside manners, the APN in the office as well who consults to him. Very thorough provider went over MRI, took his time to discuss treatment plan. He is definitely a provider that Talks the talk and walks the walk. Very satisfied and pleased to be under his care. Front and Back-office staff very professional and caring.
