Thank you!
Such a wonderful meeting I had with this most professional and courteous Doctor! He is a breath of fresh air in the neurological field! I'm so happy to have reconnected with him, and appreciate his sincere care and evaluation to my ongoing problems!
Always Professional, Knowledgeable, and Helpful!!
Very informative and open with me regarding my condition.
Very nice doctor. He explained my condition, and gave good advice.
Has a great bed side manner in making sure that the patient understands the diagnosis and what he recommends to relieve the pain.
Very helpful and listen.
Doctor Abdunnur listened well and gave realistic feedback about the types of treatment available to me for my injury. I feel like he considers the person and looks at the big picture in deciding what treatment options are best for the individual.
Very attentive & thorough.
I had to reschedule my appointment 1mo. & some days. To meet w/ the Dr. that would be doing the procedure & His assistant. The receptionist told me the doctor was sick today. But the person that I met w/ the first time, I would be speaking w/ him. I was fine w/ that. Dr. Abdunnur came in telling me what he would do. Something different than what I was told in my 1st. visit w/ the Dr’s assistant. I was told that I had a degenerative disc & probably would need a disc replacement amongst other things. Trimming bone spurs, etc. I Knew something like that would be done. But a back fusion. Out of the question. I wonder how I could I go from a displacement to a spine fusion. Still wondering about my degenerative disc. It’s no good. I’m trying to avoid Any back fusions. I really just wanna talk to the 2 people That I originally had an Appointment w/. The Dr’s assistant took a bit more time going through what was going on. He had more time to study my MRI. It was to quick w/ him. No Vibe.
