Dr. Magdy El-Kalliny, MD

On time friendly and answered all of my questions

He sat down face to face and thoroughly explained my procedure and gave detailed instructions and information about what to expect before during and after procedure. Explained all risks involved and made sure I was comfortable with all information given. He and his staff have been wonderful and helpful.

Such a great caring doctor that knowsWhat he's doing very professional

I had a L5S1 cage and rods and have no hip pain anymore. Next I have to have a L3L4 and L4L5 fusion. I totally trust Dr El Kalliny and his decisions. Him and his staff are always nice and answer all questions and the wait time to be seen is always short. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I was greeted at check-in asking if I had a hard disc of images. I said I wasn’t informed I needed to bring my own images. Their first response was sorry we won’t be able to see you. Thoughtless, inconsiderate, disorganized.. Staff didn’t know what an EMR was.. The office said they were unable to request or receive electronically. When I was on the phone getting the images sent over from my referred PCP they said time was up and I couldn’t be seen.

I have never felt better

Very attentive and caring. Makes sure that he knows all aspects of your condition before doing a procedure.

We saw the PA for several visits until my condition was found through an MRI. Then the dr came in and explained what was happening and what was wrong and he showed me the MRI as he explained it to us. Now I am a week post surgery and the dr tells me my progress is doing good just need more time to heal.. He friendly and explains things well.

Dr. El-Kalliny is an awesome Dr. And surgeon! He has been my Doctor before and he is again currently. He has taken excellent care of me and several of my friends and family members. I won’t see anyone else as long as he is practicing. Results have always been great for us all!

Always take the advice of this excellent Dr and surgeon. He’s a Godsend.

This Dr is so upfront. He is amazing! I know if I have questions, he is more than willing to answer them. He is such a gentleman, and on point. My sister drives 2 hours just to see him. Thank you doc for taking care of me and my sister..

I’ve been seen at this office for over a year,this was the first time I had seen the Doctor.The appointment was set up from his assistant who said I was seeing him to discuss surgery or some type of pain pump because I did injections which didn’t help.After waiting on him for over a hour he suggested another injection to see if it would work.it’s been 2 weeks and the injection still has not been set up.I realize because I live in a small town his office is busy and I’m sure he is a excellent Doctor but I’m 63 yrs old and I ‘m in such Severe pain and have been for years. I’ve not been prescribed pain medication only muscle relaxer, I just want the pain to subside at least a little.

I have been a patient (?) for the past 9 months, but have never seen him. A PA met with me on each visit, ordering additional tests each time. Appointments were cancelled and rescheduled several times, including once while I was in the parking lot for a scheduled appointment. Would not recommend this practice.

This website would not post my actual opinion because my review was very long and in detail as this doctor has no integrity whatsoever his word is not good. His staff were nice and very helpful but the ending result his surgery was scheduled three times and three times canceled town for a new doctor

Waited 3 months with severe low back pain to get in seen the PA she said I had two disc rubbing bone on bone that was what was causing the severe pain and I needed surgery so I said ok she said the surgery would be in 4 weeks and they would call me with a surgery date I waited 4 weeks still in bad pain and didn't hear from them so I called them back and they said the doctor looked at my disc and didn't recommend any surgery at this time they didn't even bother to call me back I'm no doctor but something is bad wrong it's just not normal to be in severe pain this long I have now hired me a doctor in Lexington that's going to fix my back I would not recommend this doctor.

I had been patient of Dr. El -Kalliny for about 4 years. He did the best he could do and than some but in the end the bridge was burnt. The receptionists are extremely polite and kind but the rest of the staff is bogged down and over booked. I attempted to establish communication and contact but not a return call, text, email, or even a letter in the mail.

This was first appointment and I waited well over 2 hours to get back into the exam room where I saw the Nurse Practitioner. He was nice enough and tried to answer my questions unsuccessfully. He went to get the doctor who I dont think I would have seen if I hadn't pushed the point. The Dr. was there about 5 minutes didnt really explain anything he checked my mri but not the ct then just ordered more test. I left knowing less than I did when I came in. I'm finding a new Dr.!

PRE-op care - Dr El K spent approprite amount of time, responded empathetically. Quickly obtained insurance approval for surgery. I was impressed and grateful to have found him. However, very poor POST- surgical care. Very difficult to reach office by phone. Reply to messages slow/or non-existent. Slow to provide test results. Slow to respond to urgent post-op concerns. Poor nursing care. At the very least, poor office management. Don't be fooled by office decor, it's all smoke and mirrors.
