“Great surgeon”
We went to doctor Blum after my wife had an eye exam because she was experiencing problems with her peripheral vision and migraine headaches.
The ophthalmologist suggested that we see a neurologist because he thought it might be a tumor. We went to our primary physician who sent us to a neurologist who confirmed the 8-centimeter tumor. My wife researched all the Neurology Surgeons in our area and out of all the good Surgeons she selected the best ..... Doctor Keith Blum.
We met with Doctor Blum who told us that she had to have surgery, that the tumor was too large for any other option. He was straight forward and let us know what all the possibilities that might occur during the surgery. He also told us the surgery would last at least 12 hours and on the worst case scenario it could resume into the second day.
The day of the surgery came and we meet with Doctor Blum who was very alert and rested for the long day of surgery. My wife was taken back for surgery at Spring Valley Hospital and the long day began. Every four hours we were updated on the surgery, and after 12 hours we were told that they got all the tumor and that they were closing. Four hours later Doctor Blum came out and told us that the surgery went well and my wife was being taken up to her room. Doctor Blum who came in so rested at the beginning of the day looked like he had been up for days after the 16-hours of surgery. His conversation with us was from a person with true compassion. Dr. Blum checked on my wife during her hospital stay and has been great with her after surgery care.
Doctor Blum’s office staff are professional and we have never waited longer than 15 minutes before seeing Doctor Blum.
Without hesitation I would recommend Doctor Blum for any neurological matter,
Respectfully,
KT
