Dr. Pirris performed a laminectomy on my lower back to relieve pain and sciatica pressure - he was very through and concise in explaining the procedure to me. The procedure went very well. The pain is gone. Thank you Dr. Pirris and Sherry;

I have no issues with Dr Pirris at all. he is the best. I do however have an issue with their office policy. I have had two major back surgeries within a one year period with Dr. Pirris. These were both in depth surgeries. I am now due to have my one year checkup and since then my cobra insurance has expired. Their office visit is 92.00 so I asked if I could pay half of that and then the other half later. they said no. WOW. Guess they didn't make enough off the insurance I did have.

Dr. Pirris is very professional and conscience. I am very comfortable with him and am very satisfied not only with him but his entire office staff. They treat patients with kindness and caring. Questions answered quickly with what you can understand.

Dr. Stephen Pirris, neurosurgeon at St. Vincents Brain and Spine Institute, has performed 4 surgeries on me, including a neck fusion and 2 back fusions. He always takes the time needed to explain all options and never leaves you feeling hurried in an appointment. When performing surgery, Dr. Pirris utilizes the most up-to-date instrumentation and cutting-edge surgical procedures to be as non-invasive as possible. He is very compassionate, gives excellent follow-up care and is highly reccomended

Dr. Pirris is phenomenal! I had a MRI that showed a disc in my neck that had protruded thru my spinal fluid and was jammed up against my spinal cord. I was in serious pain and a risk of being paralyzed. On 3/6/18 he performed an Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion at the C 3-4 level. I woke up from surgery with no pain and the ability to move my neck in any direction. It's now been seven weeks since the surgery and everything is still perfect! Thank you and your team Dr. Pirris!

Dr Pirris did my neck (C6-C7) fusion in July of 2017. He did a fantastic job. I had no pain after surgery and felt great. when it was time to start therapy everything went good and I do my exercises daily. I am pain free after 9 months and loving life again, at 66 years old. I would recommend him to anyone and I have. Thanks again for your great help when I really needed it. PS Go penquins

First, the staff in the office went above and beyond in scheduling my surgery on short notice. They were competent, professional and friendly. I had 2 fractured vertebrae that had all but immobilized me for 6 months. Dr. Pirrus performed Kyphoplasty surgery on my back and within days I was pain free. 4 months later and I am still pain free and as active as ever. My quality of life returned.

Dr. Pirris and his staff are phenomenal. On initial visit Dr. Pirris explained my problem and how to repair. The expertise of Dr. Pirris allowed me to have a disectomy at 1PM and be home at 6PM with NO PAIN. Scheduling appointments is fast and efficient and staff are friendly and accommodating. For anyone suffering with back pain, I would encourage a consult with Dr. Pirris. You won't be disappointed.
