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.

He’s a great Physician whom I’ve been treated by for about 8 years. He is kind snd generous with his communication and overall professional manner…He also referred me to an excellent Spinal Surgeon when he determined that it was absolutely necessary. Dr. Issac is the best…

Excellent!
Dr Isaac is a wonderful doctor. Very thorough in reviewing my MRI and X-rays and explained my condition and offered a potential course of action. Can’t say enough good things about him and my visit. Very grateful to Dr Isaac.

just an fyi - does not take fibromyalgia patients
If you are someone who is recommended to him to treat fibromyalgia, as I was, it may be helpful to know that the office will not make an appointment for fibromyalgia.

Dr. Isaac is a great doctor. Explained everything so That I could understand an truly cares about his patients. He gave me an injection in May for my hip and I went in with a pain of 10 and walked out with zero pain. Dr. Isaac is out standing and would recommend him 10 times over!!

My last visit with Dr Isaac was for trigger point injections. I had over 10 trigger point injections during this visit. He did it as "painless" and as quickly as possible to minimize the amount of time I had to be in pain. After the injections, my quality of life improved dramatically and I had more flexibility than I have had in a really long time.

Dr. Isaac is one of the BEST! Reading other patient reviews, I want note that he was exceptionally kind and considerate of the pain I was in. Personally, bedside manner is not nearly as important as what the doctor is actually there to treat. We developed a treatment plan based on my medical history and started treatment within a week. During the procedures, he explained the process and made sure I was comfortable. Most important thing about this review, he is the reason I am pain free again!

Dr. Isaac listened carefully and provided me with thorough explanations. He has an excellent "bedside manner"--caring and thoughtful. I was happy that he expedited input in my record by dictating comments. His wants both the broader picture and small details about pain triggers and injuries. His assessment of my health was extremely informative. He knows a great deal, and just as importantly, how to convey this information. I could not have been happier with the care I received from him.
