I requested and scheduled 4 meetings with him and he only showed up for one. Didn’t see him in the hospital at all. He didn’t attend the follow up meeting. Just seemed like he didn’t care. No patient benefit from an $89,000 procedure. This was a fine example of US healthcare. Surgeon and hospital benefit, patient pays, suffers. I wouldn’t send anybody to this surgeon. He’s a very failed practitioner.

He lied to me that I had fused, even put it in my medical record. How he could tell without a CT ,I do not know all he ever did was follow up X-rays. But I didn't. Had to have a repair surgery and have the contraption he put in deeply dug out of my neck.

I have had low back problems for 40 years from over use and to much heavy lifting and that had created a few different issues. I had my first surgery in 2015 by Dr. Roe to relive pinched nerves exiting the low back spine both sides at S1 to L4 vertebra and it helped to some degree. In 2018 Dr. Anissipour found that the two lower disc were getting squashed and the spinal cord was getting pinched and did a laminectomy and remedial work at previous surgery to clean up around nerves exiting the spine, this gave a good amount of ... read more

My initial consult with Dr. Anissipour was very pleasant. I had a flexion and extension xray done at his clinic prior to us talking. His exam was quick, as after he put his thumb in my lower back I jumped in pain. Then we went over my history of dealing with back issues for the past 5 years. There wasn't anything that I haven't done or tried up to this point. Nothing helped. My diagnosis was major spinal instability at L5 S1 with spondelolisthesis and pars defect. The new OLLIF surgery was put on the table by doc, I was told... read more

I had a lower back surgery with him and during my one week check up I told him that it doesn't feel right. He told me to rest more. The next morning I was in agonizing pain and the receptionist said to go to a walk in. The walk in told me to go to the ER. ER said I'm lucky I got there bc I could've died. 3 surgeries later and I still hurt. I was supposed to be out of work for only a couple of weeks according to him... Six months later I went to work limping. That was March of 2017 and this is June of 2019 and I'm worse than ... read more

After being diagnosed with degenerative 5/6 disc, I'm so grateful to have been referred to Dr Anissipour. The pain was classic symptoms anterior deltoid pain much like a toothache. Post surgery the pain is gone and I couldn't be happier. I would trust him to perform surgery on my grandchildren. He's kind and has my full confidence.

After suffering chronic back pain for two years and painful Sciatica, I was referred to different specialists but finally to the Gateway Center. With much prayer I asked God to help me choose the right Surgeon. His answer was Dr. Annissipour. A Doctor who never talked down to me, I always understood what he was telling me. It is one month since back surgery and I am totally grateful to this Doctor. PS the cleanliness of the entire facility stands out.

I went 5 months with EXSTREEM back pain. Saw a lot of doctors and specialist. What I learned along the way was persistence. I cried at most appointments. AFTER 5 MONTHS of chronic pain and two years of pain, I was referred to Dr. Ali Anissipour who went in and promptly found a cist that was pressing against a nerve. Everyone else thought I had sciatica. I went to acupuncture, physical therapy, deep tissue massage with NO HELP. God bless and thank you for all you did. And I pray for everyone.
