Dr. Dorsi listed to me and gave me the opportunity to be myself again. I came to Dr. Dorsi after battling chronic pain for the past 3 years, doctors had thrown every medication in the book at me and they either didn't work or turned me into zombie. As a mother of two with a full time job I needed something more and Dr. Dorsi understood that and took the time to explain the how an implant might help me. He, Dr. Kia and his staff supported me the whole way through and I can't thank them enough.

Dr. Dorsi is the best neurosurgeon in the world. I had 2 back surgeries (Levels L5-S1 and L3-L4) before I met him and was really nervous about the third one, which was waiting for me. He did a great job on my L4-L5 herniated disc and made the trust between physicians and myself. I still have a lot to go to eliminate the issue, but he was a big support of my healing process. I highly recommend Dr. Dorsi as the surgeon who is capable of doing sophisticated treatments.

I should have pushed for surgery earlier. Pain from sciatica disappeared almost immediately. Pain from surgery lasted less than three weeks. I neglected the "as needed" clause in pain relief medication and reduced dosage too slowly resulting in severe constipation. Discharge paperwork on medications was so many pages without compact summary that it was hard to follow. I would highly recommend the team.

I had a 'Paddle' inserted in my back. This was to replace a failed Spinal Cord Stimulator. This new Stimulator is working even better than the previous one when it was working. I also have a pain pump inserted and this Spinal Cord Stimulator works better than that. I highly recommend this to anyone suffering from lower back pain. It is a simple surgery done on an outpatient basis and I was fully recovered after a week and was able to get up and move around after the second day.

It’s not possible for me to have had a more ideal surgical outcome than the one provided to me by Dr. Dorsi.

I stop and pinch myself every day. Thanks to Dr. Dorsi, my world has reopened. I don’t think a better surgical outcome is possible by anyone else, anywhere!

Dr. Dorsi was was attentive to my concerns and candid in his advice regarding my laminectomy and Nevro HF10 spinal cord stimulator implant. The surgery went off without a hitch, and I'm now using 1/4 of the pain medication I used to need for 5+ years of low back, hip and leg pain. If you're considering a spinal cord stimulator implant with dorsal paddle leads, you need the best spine surgeon you can find. Dr. Dorsi scored 4.9 out of 5 across 244 ratings at vitals.com, and was a perfect 5 thoughout all of my contacts from initial viability consult through actual surgery to the final post-op office visit.

Dr. Dorsi's evaluation was spot-on. I was a candidate for disc replacement. The surgery went perfectly, without any complications. Within a week I felt like I was 100%, but followed the post-op directions of Dr. Doris and Jenna. Today, I just had my 6-month post-op appointment, and I am fully released to live the life I couldn't before this surgery!

Dr Dorsi worked to avoid surgery and follow a conservative approach, which I appreciated. He then urged implanting a spinal stimulator to hide the pain. I considered it but declined. We evaluated my options together. I ended up with surgery. It was a total success. I am pain free and very happy with the results. I am also very happy with my treatment by him and his entire office staff. I hope I don't need to see him again, other than routine follow up, but I wouldn't hesitate to consult him again if need be.

The spinal stimulator that Dr. Dorsi implanted has already helped with long standing neuropathy (unexplained) on the bottoms of my feet. At about 3 months from surgery time, I'm playing tennis and going to the gym. So far i would say that the condition is at least 50% improved, which has been greatly helpful in daily activities, especially driving where the pressure of the gas pedal was very painful. Glad I went ahead and did the surgery.

Dr. Dorsi by far was one of the best doctor I ever encountered. He made me feel comfortable by explaining to me thoroughly the benefit of having neck spine surgery, and not having one. Dr. Dorsi is not like any other doctor who just recommend surgery immediately without a detailed explanation about the patient problem, and just taking advantage of the system, trying to make money. Honestly, I strongly recommend Dr. Dorsi above and beyond his peers for being truthful, honest, and concerned to his patients.

My experience with the Abbott back stimulator has been a very positive one. It has reduced my overall severe pain level significantly (80 percent at least). Having control over how much reduction in pain I receive is in my hands alone. I would recommend this procedure to anyone who has back pain issues. Excercise in addition to the stimulator will also help reduce pain levels, especially stretching. I chose this procedure over spinal cord fusion, which is not something I wanted to do.

I was having severe lower back pain that had me bed ridden for 6 months and couldn't get anyone to help. I had to advocate for myself and was so tired of getting the run around from every doctors office I called until I called Dr. D'Orsi. He got me in within a week to see his PA, and him within a few weeks. I had a herniated disk, and had surgery soon thereafter. He listened, he was patient, and kind, and understanding. I have also heard from others that I have since run into who have also had him as a doctor, that he is the best, and I absolutely agree. Dr. D'Orsi is top notch, and I am so lucky to have found him. Thank you for everything! You truly are a gift to this profession!

Dr. Dorsi is the best neurosurgeon in the world. I had 2 back surgeries (Levels L5-S1 and L3-L4) before I met him and was really nervous about the third one, which was waiting for me. He did a great job on my L4-L5 herniated disc and made the trust between physicians and myself. I still have a lot to go to eliminate the issue, but he was a big support of my healing process. I highly recommend Dr. Dorsi as the surgeon who is capable of doing sophisticated treatments.

I had a paddle stimulator put in my back oct 2019. It was the best thing I could have done. My pain level at this point has gone down at least 50% and climbing. We are still working on getting the right program down for me. Jenna and Dr. Dorsi have been so helpful in this process. I would highly recommend this office to anyone. They are available when ever I need them. Also working with the rep Sara from Nevro has been a god send. She has been available to me when ever I need her. So far this is the best thing I could have done for myself. I highly recommend this to anyone having the kind of pail I have been having.

Dr Dorsi has been concerned that my symptoms be alleviated.

It was so good to be able to phone the office with questions and even be able to talk directly with the doctor.

I met with Dr. Dorsi to discuss my low back issues and after seeing numerous other Orthopedic Surgeons and Neurosurgeons. Which all Recommend 3 level disc fusion as the only recourse to fix the issues. I was referred to Dr, Dorsi by Dr Spiegel, and I am so glad he did. Dr. Dorsi reviewed all my MRI's and notes, and clearly stated Fusion will not take away the pain and he would not recommend it unless there was a major reason to do so. After my Appointment I now totally trust, respect Dr. Dorsi

Then we needed to address the remaining problem.I had extensive surgery but found that I recovered more quickly than I expected. While moving toward surgery. Dr. Dorsi was able to refer me to other specialist to try more conservative therapies before surgery. I recommend Dr. Dorsi for your care.

When I came into Dr. Dorsi's office for the first time I was scared out of my mind & in extreme pain. He was patient with suggesting things to try to avoid surgery first. When it was clear that surgery was my only option, he answered every question & made sure I knew what was going to happen & what to expect. The after surgery care was just as compassionate. I pray that I will never need his services again, but if I do, I know I will be in good hands.
