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.

I wouldn't recommend this guy AT ALL. He cancelled the day before my appointment and I had been waiting for over a month. Incredibly inefficient and inconsiderate! If his office runs this way, how do you think he does surgery? How many people are walking around with ruined backs because of the ineptness of him and his rude staff?

Dr. Mehdi Habibi is an EXCELLENT Surgeon! He's patient and very sympathetic to patients needs. I was losing the use of my arms, could not hold anything in my right hand. My left arm and hand was numbing up. I saw a Neurologist who referred me to Dr. Mehdi Habibi, after an MRI and several test. After he did the surgery on my C-spine, a spine fusion, I regained the use of my arms. I saw him several times after the surgery and I always left his office knowing I was going to be ok.

This doctor does not care about his patients he seems to be senile. cannot keep his patients straight he sends patients to other providers in physical therapy without feeling that there is going to be a successful outcome to their additional treatment. He just sends patients elsewhere to send them and really claim to be helping them has no care to be seeing them. Does not want to operate on patients unless it's the perfect situation. Does not need to still be practicing needs to retire
