ALI BYDON, MD - THE JOHNS HOPKINS HOSPITAL REVIEWS
our father was given a grim diagnosis of Stage 4 renal cell carcinoma that had metastasized to his spine and given a prognosis of a year at best. We were devasted and didn’t know where to turn. We met many doctors and none of them gave us HOPE until we found Dr. Bydon. Within two days of sending images/scans to your office you personally called us without hesitation and told us to get our father to Johns Hopkins immediately and were more than willing to take on the challenge. He successfully removed 100% of his vascular tumor and gave him more time to spend with his family. Unfortunately since that time he has had yet another spinal tumor. Once again Dr. Bydon did not hesitate to help our dad and family. I have never experienced a doctor who would drop everything and prioritize a patients care on such short notice. He has touched our lives with his brilliance, compassion and courage. He is and extraordinary doctor and human being.
My visit to Dr. Bydon was amazing. He is very professional and passionate about his work . He explained my symptoms and his surgical plan in a detailed and simplistic manner. I was truly satisfied with Dr. Bydon and his team. I am happy that he performed my surgery. Thank you Dr. Bydon for everything. You are truly a godsend.
If you are fortunate enough to get Dr Bydon, rest assured that you are in the best possible hands. He is smart, extremely qualified and nothing short of amazing. I did not have any concerns about his skill level or competence. I felt at ease with him from my first appointment and never questioned his plan.

ZEENA DORAI, MD - MEDSTARHEALTH REVIEWS
Dr. Zeena Doria is the most professional, caring, highly respected, intelligent and extremely efficient doctor that I have ever met and fortunately for me she was my surgeon. I would recommend her to my friends or family without a second thought. She knows what she is doing so you are safe from the first office visit. Highly recommend
I experienced outstanding care throughout my visit. Dr. Dorai explained the imaging results and all of the risks associated with the surgical option. Dr. Dorai is not only highly knowledgeable but also compassionate-two qualities that are important in a medical professional. By the end of my visit, I felt like I had the information and guidance necessary to make a decision.
I was recently very impressed during an interview with Dr Dorai in her Westmister office. I am hoping to find a solution to a degenerative spine condition. She had studied my MRI with an in-depth analysis, then gave me a concise explanation of my problem. That was followed by some questions and a discussion of my problem's history. Then she clearly explained a proposed solution (surgery) and what I can expect. Her office gave me a report that summed up the interview, and included the full name of the proceedure so I can research it.

CHARLES A. SANSUR, MD, FAANS - UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND SCHOOL OF MEDICINE REVIEWS
I recently turned 76. Seven years ago I asked Dr, Sansur to get me five more years of singlehanded sailing. I'm still singlehanded sailing. I'm a Veteran and found a reference to the VA on his CV. On a Friday afternoon, I emailed him to find out if he still did any work at the VA. He responded in the affirmative, to my email the next day, a Saturday. The rest is history. Is it possible for an outstanding surgeon to be an even better person? I don't know, but I do know that he and his staff treated me with care and understanding.
I have the utmost respect for Dr. Charles Sansur. After 2 prior failed back surgeries, I was left with chronic pain with drop foot. I interviewed multiple spine specialists to see if they could offer me relief and was so glad when I found Dr. Sansur. He preformed a 3-level lumbar fusion with instrumentation, which significantly improved my quality of life. Dr. Sansur has an extraordinary bedside manner. He is confident and compassionate and takes time with his patients to ensure all questions are answered. His nurse practitioner, Lyndsi Hiler, was also excellent and very attentive to ensuring my needs were met following the surgery. I am a healthcare professional and I strongly suggest that anyone contemplating complex spine surgery should contact Dr. Sansur. My only regret is that I didn't find him sooner!
Dr. Sansur is a very kind and compassionate doctor. I’ve been a nurse for 40 years and have worked with a lot of doctors and he is truly exceptional. He explains everything very well. I never feel rushed and he doesn’t leave the room until all of my questions are answered. I trust him completely.
