I have been a cosurgeon with Dr. Nakaji for many years at both Barrow and Banner University, and he is both world renown for his expertise, and relates well with patients helping them face extremely complex medical conditions. Highly recommended!
I've had a few neurosurgeons since my AVM repair in 2009 by Dr Nakaji. I moved to Florida. Terrible health care! Not one of them was as kind to me or seemed as concerned about me or my brain as he was. I'm back now in AZ got sent to a neurologist through banner health who ordered all the right tests, but after reading reviews on her I'm worried. Would really love to go back to Dr Nakaji again.
I had brain surgery with Dr. Nakaji and it left me with right side numbness, memory loss, pronunciation of speech problems, light sensitivity and headaches. He can't explain why this happened to me and says I'm the first that this happened to. I find that hard to believe. But it did happen to me, and he doesn't like to admit that his surgery caused it. I chose him for his good reviews. I wish someone would have gave me a heads up about him. All I know is I went in to surgery capable of a normal life and came out of surgery q... read more
I have been a patient with Dr. Nakaji for over 18 years and have met or interacted with him every year. He has the best bedside manner. Explains the procedure well and does not rush anything. I am truly surprised at the one star ratings but don't question them. However please don't blame the doctor for his staff's fault. They are completely different people. I would highly recommend Dr. Nakaji to anyone. Thanks!
Dr. Peter Nakajii is an exceptional doctor, who removed my big meningioma brain tumor. The post-surgery recovery was exceptionally fast. I was so impressed with his demeanor and exceptional manners. He thoroughly explained my brain surgery. His staff was also exceptional from the very first phone call.
I met Dr. Nakaji for a new consult for my 2nd brain surgery. I was so impressed with his demeanor and exceptional bedside manner. We went thru my images, he answered ALL my questions, with no rush, and explained my procedure extensively. His staff is exceptional from the 1st phone call. Being in the healthfield myself, I was pleased beyond belief! He DOES listen to his patients which is not a common thing these days, unfortunately!
Dr. Nakaji is very kind, attentive, knowledgeable, and professional. He gave me a potential answer I had been searching for nearly a year and explained it well. I hope never to need surgery, but I would 100% trust Dr. Nakaji as my surgeon if I do.
He saved my life twice. 2006 and 2013. I will always have him as my NS for my life long condition and VP shunt issues. Bedside manner does not matter- it's the life saving skills that count! You are alive and breathing.
Dr Nakaji is an extremely talented surgeon and just a wonderful human being. Super easy to talk to and wonderful bedside manner. He is great at explaining what exactly is wrong and how he's going to remedy it. If he doesn't know an answer, he'll search it out until he has one. I am extremely grateful to have had him perform my last 5 surgeries. I wouldn't trust anyone else!
