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.

Brain surgery
I had the best service with Dr. Schneier neurologist specialist and his entire team went above and beyond, both ICU and oncology department. Horrible brain scan. Emergency department at Sunrise Hospital. Top notch bedside manner, easy to talk in laymen’s terms. Very caring and with empathy. Quick in doing what he doesn’t best!I’d highly recommend him and his expert hands.Now I hope I don’t have to visit him anytime soon, he’d be the only neurosurgeon I’d call or see again.Thank you Doctor for your exceptional service.Janet

Dr Schneier is a magician.
The doctor appears to have excellent diagnostic skills. He sat with me and went over my x-rays and MRI, and showed me what was wrong and what he was going to do in surgery to repair it. When I first saw him, I couldn’t stand up straight and I had to walk with a cane with my back bent. He operated on me September 1 and now I feel like a new man. I am doing physical therapy. I can stand up straight and walk. I have very little pain and I can’t say enough about the doctor. He knows what he’s doing and he does it. Thanks Dr Schneier.

Dr. Schneier was highly recommended by my Neurologist. I had already had two carpal tunnel surgeries by an other surgeon, but it didn't correct my symptoms of loss of grip strength and severe tingling in fingers. After a MRI, Dr. Schneier recommended ACDF. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Schneier and his team. He gave me back my quality of life, and in fact, I am playing better golf than I ever have. Thank you Dr. Schneier.

I had a three level back surgery (L4-S1) in March 21. I see a big difference in mobility and comfort level. Dr Scheier is very personable and I have never had to wait for more than 10 minutes to see him. He's very good with complex surgery, using robotics to ensure precision and accuracy.

Dr. Schneier performed a Craniotomy on me at Sunrise Hospital. He did a great job and I am 90% recovered and thankful for him. I did not chose him; he was assigned to do it by the hospital. He checked on me almost daily at the hospital and he did his best to explain to me my progress and answer all my questions. After leaving the hospital I was supposed to see him for follow up. He did see me once at his office but because he doesn’t take my insurance he said I have to get approval first from them to see him again after I do another scan in 3 weeks. His assistance Carla however, did everything in her power to prevent me from seeing him. Either because my insurance wasn’t good enough for them or most probably because she is one arrogant lazy incompetent assistant. First she refused to have him refill my medication (Keppra) and referred me to the hospital doctor which I never met. She said Dr. Scheier can’t do that. She also told me that they can’t request a pre-authorization from my in

Dr. Schneier is not only a great surgeon, he is an artist. If it was not for him I would be walking on one leg only! Not only I walk, run and enjoy my daily life, I am still able to enjoy my passion in life which is Jumping my horses. This is a very late thank you from a very grateful patient. Thank you for giving me my health back.

Lifelong surfer with history of severe back problems - repeated herniation of disk, starting in Hawaii, 1972, compressed fracture of L-2 and fracture of spinous process in Australia, 1980. All were from severe contact with ocean floor after wiping out in powerful waves. Final straw was severe disc blow out in 2009, from a sneeze! Dr. Schneier took me in immediately for discectomy/laminotomy. Pain and problem free ever since, surfing even with my kid or grandkid piggyback! Miracle worker!
