Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent doctor very honest

I chose Dr. Myers because he had the best ratings. I was not disappointed. His staff is top notch. All my questions were answered. I needed back surgery and had been suffering from severe pain for over two years. I had the surgery (a complete success) and the post op treatment...I couldn’t ask for better care. The professionalism and thoroughness of Dr. Myers and his staff quite frankly is the best I have ever experienced. I would recommend Dr. Myers without hesitation. Simply put, the best.

I am from CA but visited Dr. Meyers in FL because he is known to be the best and extremely conservative. Conservative meaning he will not operate on you unless he really has to. This shows the ethics and integrity Dr. Meyers has which is rare in his field, especially when there is potential income being lost by not choosing to operate. Moreover, he uses minimal invasive techniques that others can’t do. I have had a c6-c7 disc herniation, and waited for years until I found someone I was comfortable with. His staff is very welcoming and sincere, and treat all patients as family. I am back up and running again!

Dr Myers was very responsive. While on vacation, I herniated a disc, suffering from acute pain. MRI revealed other lower back degeneration issues requiring surgery. Dr. Myers is very personable, re-arranged his schedule/worked extra to fit me in. The follow-up however is a little lacking. Several calls to the office have been required to obtain 'bone growth stimulator' which Doctor ordered 2 weeks ago but still has not been provided. I would choose an exceptionally skilled surgeon with delayed follow up due to busy office staff over exceptionally skilled office staff and mediocre surgeon. I can't thank Dr. Myers enough for his responsiveness and skill, and his willingness to take on the burden of medical school to become an exceptionally skilled surgeon.

Dr. Myers is amazing but his staff... not that much. I made an appointment and although I asked if he is in network with UHC and I received a positive response, 4 months later I received a bill in the mail for close to $2K and that it because he is OUT OF NETWORK with UHC (UnitedHealthcare). Wait time??? Horrendous!!! Why? Because he is double or triple booked. Nurse coming in to do the pre-scan? It's a joke!!! She didn't know the spelling of the words and used the dictation tool. The "visit" with the nurse took about 25 minutes, then wait time then the doctor came in for 5-7 minutes. What has the healthcare system become???

I was recommended to this doctor. I called to book a visit to review my MRI. I asked" do you accept Cigna insurance?" The lady who answered said yes we do...I met with Doctor after waiting an hour past my appointment time ..ok..busy day..he spent 15 minutes with me and told me about the surgery..having been recommended to me I moved to book the surgery with his assistant..at that point she informed me they are out of network Cigna..I was furious..when I called to make the appointment the correct response should have been..yes we accept Cigna but we are out of network..I would not have wasted time with meeting this doctor..2 days later I get a call from the office CFO and he said they will take what ever Cigna will pay for out of network..REALLY !!!! I get stuck with 80% of what they don't pay..no way ...and for less than a 15 minute consult he billed Cigna over 1400.00 and sent me a bill for almost 300.00. ..unprofessional operation.. I emailed the CFO ...no reply

Dr. Myers and his staff treat their patients with excellent care. I recently had a 3 level ACDF and made it known how nervous I was going into the procedure. Both him and his O.R. team, especially Nurse Erica made me feel comforted and relaxed. Doctor Myers is an exceptional and brilliant surgeon as less than 2 months after the procedure I was feeling great. I can't thank him enough!

Excellent Doctor. I was suffering from severe pain due to a L3 & L4 herniated disc and stenosis. Tired of being on pain every day and not medicine to help, I decide to go to one of the doctors in my insurance network and he referred me Dr. Myers. The best decision I ever made for my lower back pain. 100% recommend for spinal fusion.

Dr. Behnam Myers gave me my life back. I was suffering from severe and debilitating pain due to a L5S1 herniated disc. The pain had become unbearable even on pain meds. I was referred to Dr. Myers and he suggested Microdiscectomy. Dr. Myers treated me with the care and concern of a family member. The day after surgery I was walking and pain free. Dr. Myers is a skilled, compassionate surgeon who gave me a reason to smile again.

When I was referred to Dr. Meyers I was in a lot of pain with sciatica going down the left leg and drop foot with weakness in the right leg. I had been to other doctors with little relief, until I met Dr. Meyers. I could tell he really cared because he asked for several tests to be done before he planned his surgical approach. The whole experience has been positive from the pre-op to the surgery to the post-op. Dr. Meyers did an excellent job and I am pain free. He is a very compassionate Doctor

I scheduled surgery with him because of severe pain from a compressed fracture. His office set up surgery for me ten days later. I went for my pre-op and his office manager told me he couldn't do it because the surgery center did not accept Aetna. It is ridiculous that his office would not have been aware of this when they scheduled my surgery and not told me at that time or at least given me a phone call! I had to decide on another surgeon at the last minute.

Went to this Dr. I had severe neck pain and dizziness after car accident. I saw the PA . This was by far the worst experience I have had with a doctors office in my life. PA didn't even examine my neck, she told me she wanted me to see a chiropractor! Really! Without having ex-rays??? They don't do exrays in their office so now I need to take another day off to do exrays somewhere else and then come back to themll NOT A CHANCE

My L/5 S/1 was severely herniated, so much so that the herniation was jammed into my sciatic nerve. For two years I tried every kind of intervention; epidural, steroid injection, radio frequency... nothing worked. In September 2016 I was referred to Dr. Benhan Myer Spine Institute in Hollywood. He scheduled me for surgery and the day I woke up in recovery I was pain-free for the first time in two years. Within 24 hours of surgery I stood up and walked like a normal person, completely pain-free

Dr. Myers, Thank you for elevating my pain and for helping me to return to my life as an athlete. After meeting with four other surgeons, and not feeling confident in their care; I was referred to Dr. Myers. Finally, I felt I was in competent hands! Dr. Myers and his staff are attentive, professional, and genuinely caring. Six weeks weeks post surgery, I am pain free and still mending from my spinal fusion. I am blessed to have been in your care.

I've had back and neck pain for years now and every doctor I see refers me to either a massage or physical therapist. I finally got referred to Dr. Myers because another orthopedic Doctor told me he was one of the best. I scheduled an appointment to see Dr. Myers and only spoke to him for about 2 mins which was his name and left. The rest of the time I spoke to his PA which recommended me to take Aleve because I might have arthritis. I felt as if I was let down and left highly disappointed.
