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.

One amazing, kind, and very professional doctor.
Doctor Grossman is amazing. He takes his time to listen, and explain and to answer all your questions. His attention to detail and follow up is amazing. He personally contacts his patients to follow up and to answer all questions. He has an amazing staff working hard and responding to all questions we had regarding my surgery. My surgery was extremely helpful and reduced the level of pain and discomfort by 90%. I had my surgery 2 weeks ago and already back to work and slowly recovering. The reason for my review here i to let others know that there are many doctors out there that can operate. I visited many of them before seeing doctor Grossman and I am so happy I did. The experience for both myself and my wife was night and day the way doctor Gross man and his staff treated us from start to end. He is extremely busy so I had to wait for an appointment, but I am so glad I did. Just an amazing person.

Absolutely the worst=NOT VERY GOOD
I had a ruptured disc at L2-L3. He-(Brian Grossman) cut me 9” long and fussed me at L3-L4-L5 and TOTALLY MISSED MY RUPTURED DISC AT L2-L3—-I’ve got all the MRI if anyone is interestedI WENT AND GOT DR YURI FALKINSTIEN IN BURBANK TO FINISH THE JOB AND CAME HOME THE VERY SAME DAY AS SURGERY. I HIGHLY RECCOMENDED DR YURI FALKINSTEIN TO ANYONE WHO WANTS A POSITIVE OUTCOME. DR FALKINSTIEN WILL TELL YOU THAT HE WILL NOT OPERATE ON YOU IF HE CANNOT HELP YOU, AND EVERYONE IVE SENT TO HIM HAS BEEN VERY VERY THANKFUL.

Dr. Grossman
Extremely pleased with Dr. Grossman’s skills as he performed 2 lumbar fusions, 1 in 2015 and another in 2023. Both very successful and the outcome was what was discussed and expected. Great bedside manner in listening to the patient.

Dr Grossman treated me for multiple herniated discs in my lower back with extreme sciatic pain. Dr. Grossman, SCI, and staff were exceptional at treating me in surgery. My herniated discs and sciatic pain were treated via surgery and Dr Grossman cleaned it up very thoroughly. i am completely healed with no pain whatsoever. I cant thank them enough for taking care and relieving me of the pain. Thank you so much.

Dr. Grossman originally performed a lumbar laminectomy and discectomy bilaterally from L4-S1 in early 2018. I felt tremendous relief immediately after the surgery and continued to improve up until I was a year out. I was very happy with my outcome and it definitely improved my daily life. Fast forward to October 2020 and I woke up one morning unable to move. Turns out I reherniated a disc at L4-L5 that was severely impinging the nerve. Surgery was my only truly viable option. Dr. Grossman and his PA Shelby Kirby diagnosed me and got me into surgery within 2 months. This surgery was outpatient since it was only in one spot. I am 2 weeks out and my pain is 100% better. Dr. Grossman is excellent at explaining the issue and all your options. Both Dr. Grossman and Shelby Kirby take time with you and patiently answers any questions you have. I highly recommend him for anyone experiencing continuous back pain.
