DAN S. HEFFEZ, MD, FRCS REVIEWS
After one chiari surgery and a year of having my diagnosis be misunderstood, my husband and I made the trip to Milwaukee for a consult with Dr. Heffez. His examination and explanations were thorough. He explained my symptoms and a proposed treatment plan thoroughly. I had a second surgery, and within 3 weeks, felt like I was on the right track towards recovery for the first time in over a year. I returned to work at 5 weeks post-op. I recently took a new job as a Clinic Director at our local university. I would still be on disability and being treated with anxiety meds that were prescribed by a major medical network, if it were not for Dr. Heffez's expertise. My husband and I will forever be grateful.
One of the MOST amazing doctors I have ever met . He is very thorough and takes Great care of his patients. Not to mention the staff at Froedtert are unbelievably amazing down to the cleaning staff. Best hospital in Milwaukee for neurology Hands down, thank you froedtert and doctor Haffez.
I travel from New Jersey 7 miles west of New York city. To see Dr. Heffez. Would not trust anyone else. He knows about Arnold chiari Malformation.

MAX C. LEE, MD - FROEDTERT & THE MEDICAL COLLEGE OF WISCONSIN REVIEWS
Dr. Lee is outstanding: his knowledge, experience, kindness, and patience set him apart and on top of his profession. His team operates as an extension of his practice. I couldn't have been taken care of any better from a surgical or treatment manner. Any yet, Dr. Lee made himself available and went over and beyond to make sure I had no questions, that I understood what he was going to do, and that my input was important. He is confident, deservedly so, he delivers as described, but, most of all, he is a caring and kind person. My outcome was simply perfect and I consider myself so fortunate to have been under his and his team's care. Thank you Dr. Lee!
I felt very comfortable talking to Dr. Lee, neurosurgeon. He explained everything I needed to know to make an informed decision on my treatment plan. He was down to earth and easy to understand while speaking to me. I believe he can really help me using epidural injections, working with PT and pain management. I am very satisfied.
Dr. Lee has been taking care of my spine problems for my years. He continues to work on helping me make decisions by explaining problems with my spine.

WALTER P. JACOBSEN DO - AURORA SPINE SURGERY REVIEWS
I saw Dr. Jacobsen after being referred to him and seeing all his positive reviews. I’m glad I did because he is someone that I would confidently recommend to see if you’re having neck issues. He performed a 2 level ACDF on me and I felt better the instant I woke up. It’s like night and day. I went home the next day and the recovery was quick. I’m very happy I was referred to him.
I went to Dr. Jacobsen when I started to get a tingling sensation in my arms. After seeing him a few times, he suggested surgery, an ACDF. I was nervous but immediately after surgery, it felt like night and day. I was instantly better. He's a nice man and has a very nice staff.
I went to Dr. Jacobsen after being referred to him by my primary care. I was told that he is the best and he did not disappoint. I would recommend him to anyone that is having serious back pain like I was.
