He spent all of 3 minutes to examine and dismiss me. Would had been great to find out what was going on with my back and what the next step was but he didn’t have time for all of that and sent me to the receptionist to print a referral and another appointment. Maybe a good surgeon but people skills and empathy for patients is very much lacking.

Being ignored, dismissed and made to feel like I was being dishonest. It was clear he was only interested in getting my wc claim closed.

I was dealing with chronic pain in my legs and hips due to what we thought was a herniated disc. I had surgery and Dr. Swartz dealt with an unexpected spinal cyst, removing it and doing a laminectomy. My recovery was so much easier than I ever imagined and my pain was gone from the first time I stood up after surgery. Spine surgery shouldn't just be trusted to anyone. Dr. Schwartz is outstanding and gave me back my quality of life.

Dr Schwartz saw me for an urgent issue. He listened to my concerns, asked questions, and was thorough in his consideration and opinion on an appropriate course of action. He went on to coordinate staff and resources to perform an emergency surgery. No one during the entire experience made me feel like an inconvenience or imposition. I was more than comforted and given exemplary care throughout the prep, procedure, and post op processes. I am so grateful for everyone who was so kind in caring for me.

Dr. Schwartz saved my 15 year old sons life. My son suffered from Sherman’s Kyphosis and his back was unbelievable curved over crushing his heart and lungs. He was patient, caring, and confident. He made sure he took the time necessary to explain the procedure and answer all our questions. After the surgery my son’s back was perfect. He was no longer in pain and had a positive heathy future to look forward to. I will always be grateful to him. If you need back surgery Dr. Schwartz is the BEST choice.

After expediting 7 months of pain due to a herniated disc at L5 S1 and trying physical therapy and nerve root injections with no relief, Dr Schwartz performed a micro lumbar discectomy on my back. I’m about 10 weeks out from surgery, in no pain, and have resumed my normal physical activities.

I have lived with back pain most of my life . Several surgeons recommended that I should not have surgery - only as a last resort . Well that time came - Dr . Schwartz did a back fusion surgery in November and I have had no back discomfort since my surgery . It feels amazing to be able to walk distances and stand without back pain ! I am able to do so much now and participate in family activities . I would highly recommend Doctor Schwartz and have already .
