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.

Awesome doctor
Dr. Hussain saved me from having another surgery on my back a few years ago by recommending Radio Frequency Neurotomy. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr Hussain is amazing
I was having surgery at Brandon Hospital and was expecting to have to be put under but I was given the option of a block instead due to Dr. Hussain's specialization. He explained everything, and I felt no pain during the surgery and minimal pain afterwards. No grogginess like I had before with General Anesthesia. Such awesome bedside manner.

Perhaps he was having a bad day. I was having surgery at Brandon hospital and doctor Hussain put a nerve block in my arm. I have never seen such angry eyes behind a surgical mask. He looked at me like he hated me. I would like to suggest that he secure the arm after the nerve block is done since my arm was flopping all around and was even dragging behind on the wheel of my wheelchair. I didn't even know it was happening until I looked down. I believe I have sustained an injury in my elbow from this accident. I'm going in to find out what is wrong. I thought the pain in the elbow was related to the shoulder pain. However when the shoulder got better I realized something was wrong with the elbow. It's been 5 weeks of sharp pain in my"funny bone". I also got covid when I was at Brandon Hosp, so I went in for surgery and came out with an injured elbow and COVID, an extra bonus. I have been in bed for a month and am very weak as I have no appetite. Cheers to things looking better.
