Dr Aferzon preformed (2) spinal fusions on me. One in 2016 and the XLIF was in March 2017. My spinal cord (dura) was directly cut, "accidentally" when opening me from the front. They repaired it, but my room filled with doctors at 2am, asking me if I knew where I was. Every time they stood me up, my heart rate skyrocketed. Aferzon cane in on his cell, smiled at me, then left. I COULDN’T feel my left foot! I ended up with foot drop, arachnoiditis and an abscess in my spine. He said he wasn't taking bone from my hip, but he di... read more

Dr Aferzon has done all 13 surgeries on my mother's back and has gone to bat for her on multiple occasions. The ladies in the office are amazing , beautiful people as well.

I also see a review on here where that lady trashed his ... read more

Absolutely love this doctor. I'm happy with all he has done for me and my back, that has taken beating after beating from years of lifting, repositioning, and securing the safety of the patients I'm responsible for. I find him honest, forthcoming, and easy to talk to.

I thought he was the best. After the first 360 fusion, I read in my surgery notes, that my cerebrospinal dural was cut. He did sew it but it left me with foot drop. The most rude receptionist, on the planet. Very inept and unable to follow through on booking tests. She cannot take a message at all. Even the office online portal is ignored. (My cell phone shows the # of times, I used it) Nothing happens, no calls are returned. It is annoying and stressful and I do not think it is acceptable for a surgeons office to behave thi... read more
