Excellent staff in both office and hospital. Excellent facility and care. Highly Recommend!

For two years I had trouble functioning day to day because of my intolerable pain -- I felt like my head was a "bowling ball". After surgery, I am enjoying activities and functions with my family and friends. Dr. Oberlander and his PA, Kate, did an excellent job explaining my condition and my surgery. They always took the time to answer any of my questions. Highly recommend!

Quick diagnosis and resolution to my pain

I came to Dr. Oberlander in a lot of pain. He immediately knew which test to run to give me a proper diagnosis, performed my surgery and had me pain free immediately after surgery.

Much better than I expected

In a word "awesome". I had to make numerous calls to ease my
mind following surgery no one ever got upset or irritated. That was a big plus for me.

Dr. Oberlander listened to me when I told him how I was feeling and what was hurting. He gave me options. I trust his opinion. He is just the greatest and I will be forever indebted to him for taking me on as a patient. My overall experience is a 5 star rating.. Dr. Oberlander gave me back my joy for living. I am so grateful to him.

AMAZING !!!!

From the time i was told my shocking prognosis, Dr. Oberlander and his staff did everything to make me feel as though everything was going to be OK. I had 2 neck surgeries at the same time (front and back) and A LOT of pain. I am so happy to say that just as the Doc told me on day 1, after 1 year I am 100% back to normal, with a few new screws. I highly recommend this office and this amazing staff.
