I have no words for how rudely I was treated by this dr. I say in the patient waiting room for almost 2 hours. Nobody poked their head in to let me know what's going on. When he finally came in he didn't introduce himself and immediately began telling me I need to lose some weight. ( no kidding I've been trying. I'm heavy but not obese) Then he tells me I have to have a spinal fusion and goes into the fastest recap of my prayers. Reminds me again that I need to lose weight before he will fuse my spine (I don't want surgery) tells me it's only going to get worse and to see his Physicians Assistant in 6 weeks. I will be getting a second opinion elsewhere. He then leaves without ever telling me his name or any reason as to why I sat in that room for almost 2 hours. I've been to the Core before and had a wonderful experience when my knee had problems. That's why I'm shocked by this Dr bedside manner. The rest of the staff were wonderful
Dr Araghi was excellent! He is an awesome listener who takes everything into consideration and then suggests opinions.
Great doctor and great person.
Dr Araghi has been my back surgeon for more than 2 years. I know I am in good hands!
Very knowledgeable
Very calming and reassuring. I now have a good idea of what is going to happen next week and am very confident in him.
He explained very well what would be done during surgery. And what would happen after the surgery.
Always friendly, informative and explains all questions.
Very impressed with his knowledge and friendly
He is a very caring spine surgeon. His work is impeccable.
