Back Reviews
“I went in to see Dr. Falakassa when I could not walk more than 100 steps without pain. I needed a hip replacement, and he explained that it was my back. I had back surgery and was able to walk again with no problems and no pain. I felt like it was a miracle. I recommended Dr. Falakassa to a friend who had similar symptoms, but the doctor said it was different and surgery would not help him. Dr. Falakassa only does surgery when it’s necessary. I love that.”

“Dr. Falakassa is a gem. I'm thankful that he is patient, a good listener, and is kind. He has taken care of all my needs and has helped my pain significantly. I'm grateful for the fusion he did on me and would do it again in a heartbeat. His staff is very kind and helpful. He is also almost always on time. Even if you have to wait, it's worth it to have someone who cares and wants to help you. If you're unsure which surgeon to consult with for back problems, I recommend Dr. Falakassa without hesitancy.”

Neck Reviews
“Dr. Falakassa and his team are very Impressive. They care, they listen, they communicate, and they "get it done."”
– Arthur W.
“Dr. Falakassa did an excellent job of reviewing my CT scan, two MRIs, and radiology reports. He also found a significant radiology report error--so he's a very sharp-thinking orthopedic surgeon. After a patient exam and his asking me several pertinent questions, he recommended a treatment plan that had sound logic and purpose. I am now looking forward to our next appointment in mid-January. He's an excellent physician.”

“Outstanding doctor, compassionate with his patients. Very aware of the latest techniques in use for neck injuries. He is able to inform his patients on procedures and potential alternatives prior to performing surgery.”
