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.

In 1997 I needed spine surgery and was introduces to Dr. Ramesh Babu, at NYU. My surgery went absolutely perfect thanks to him. I never had problems again. He is a Great Neurosurgeon ! He has also great communication skills and bedside skills. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Babu for anybody that needs a Great Neurosurgeon!

I “met” the doctor when he came into the room, looked at the computer, mumbled a bunch of stuff and left. I learned that I was approved for surgery, I broke down in tears of joy. I did not see the doctor on the day of my surgery. I did not see the doctor after my surgery. I saw him yesterday, asking if he actually did my surgery. He said something about having a heart attack during my surgery. I’m talking to him and he’s trying to walk out of the room. I will be taking my care elsewhere.

After 9/11 I was always in pain after having surgury in Queens. I was referred to Dr. Babu and he has done wonders. I have recommended him to family and friends and the results were all 100% positive. He is not the type of Surgeon who does surgery just to grab the money . I've heard him on many occasions in his office telling patients surgery is not recommended and or needed.
