Patient Reviews

What Patients Say

Dr. Erick Kazarian and his team at NYU Langone provided exceptional care. I underwent surgery to address two herniated discs in my neck, and from consultation through recovery I felt completely supported and informed. Dr. Kazarian has a truly warm and caring nature. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel calm and not scared going into surgery — which meant so much. Today my neck is better than ever, and I am able to do all the activities I love, from horseback riding to spinning. My outcome has been truly life-changing, and I am incredibly grateful for his expertise and compassion. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing spine surgery.

From my first consultation through my ongoing post-surgery follow-ups, Dr. Kazarian has been nothing short of excellent in every aspect of the care he has provided me. When we first met, my spine issues prevented me from walking more than 20–30 steps. Now, five months later, I am walking pain-free and effortlessly, and have returned to my active lifestyle — riding my bike over 200 miles a week and regularly going to the gym. From day one, his bedside manner was great. He listened to all of my concerns and responded in an informative and caring manner, often referring to the imaging so I fully understood all aspects of the procedure. Since my surgery he has remained fully involved and engaged in my recovery.
