MARK S. STERN, MD - SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF NEUROLOGICAL SURGERY REVIEWS
This guy is a master of back surgery! My operation was great success. I feel better than I have in a decade. The nerve pain is all but gone and my paralyzed leg is truly fixed. The staff was receptive and helpful. The fusion and bi level disk replacement went seamlessly. Dr. Stern is amazing! A champion for people with chronic back pain!
Highly recommend to all my family and friends and anyone who wants a high level of care! Dr. Stern listens and cares and is the most compassionate about his field! I feel so lucky to have him as my doctor! I have my life back with two new discs and I can’t thank Dr Stern and his amazing staff enough!
Dr. Stern one of the best doctors I have ever meet. He is so honest and nice

SUNIL P. JESWANI, MD REVIEWS
When discussing back surgery with people you know, more often than not, they will tell not to do it. I'm glad I went forward with surgery with Dr. Jeswani since he found and repaired a problem that didn't show up on my MRI. I'm still going through physical therapy but each new week is better than the last.
Dr. Jeswani used my spine after I broke it in a car accident, I have had little to no pain ever since and could not be more thankful. I was even able to get pregnant less than a year later and give birth with no complications or pain to my back.
Wonderful Dr! Takes his time and answers your questions, he will be doing my back surgery and I am looking forward to having it done, and an end to this horrible back pain.

ANDREW NGUYEN, MD REVIEWS
From the very start I felt that I was going to be in good hands with Dr. Nguyen because of his ability to communicate the plan, and answer my questions, with clarity and honsety. With each visit, including the Surgery itself, my confidence increased regarding Dr. Nguyen's abilities. It was always obvious that he cared for my well being and wanted the best end result he could possibly provide for me.
Though it took a while to get the initial appointment, once there the Doc was up front about what could go well, and the alternatives if it didn’t go well. He listened to my concerns and put them to rest. Within a couple days of that visit his office called me with 3 appointments already set up for the pre-op, surgery, and post op. The Doc replaced 2 disks and for the first time in years I have no pain.
Very professional Dr. & team. I am pain free from my back surgery. I have recommended him to friends and will continue to recommend every chance I get.
Dr. Andrew Nguyen saved my life 9 years ago on 2-22-2014. I was air lifted to the hospital after falling off a horse. I predominantly hit my head the way I landed on the ground. He performed a superb surgery when he installed a shunt. Unfortunately, it DIDNT work and my head was still swelling. He had to come back not that many hours later to partially remove a section of my scull to relieve the pressure. I didn’t have a good percentage of survival. Be he had a guardian angel by his side and his hard work and determination to save me. I appreciate Him beyond words can explain. I was able to come back with his dedicated work & guidance. HE SAVED MY LIFE. May God continue to Bless Him. He has a heart full of love and compassion for ALL of his patients. - L D.
