Patients Reviews

Dr. Palejwala is an excellent surgeon. I fell and hurt my neck so badly that I needed surgery two days after entering Long Beach Memorial. At first I refused to be operated on but through indepth discussions with Dr, Palejwala she told me I had a choice; complete recovery or risk having paralysis or worse. I decided to proceed although I was very nervous about the operation. Before the operation I was near tears and asked Dr. Palejwala to please take care of me. She promised that she would and she ensured me everything would be okay. Dr. Palejwala fused my C3, C4, C5, C6 and partial C2 and C7. As she promised, everything turned out okay. it's been a year since my surgery and everything she told me has come to fruition. My left arm regained strength, the numbness all but vanished, and my neck and shoulders are strong and I'm 99% back! I attribute my amazing recovery to the skill and personal care of Dr. Palajwala. I'm very grateful for Dr. Palejwala and I recommend her to anyone that wants a skilled surgeon that provides a personal caring touch to the situation.

I was very impressed by Dr Javahery Earlier this month. From the beginning of the Appointment to the end, he was very caring, patient, and Interested in what I had to say. He showed me the images of my MRIs Explaining the areas of concern And allow me to ask questions. He is a very thorough Doctor I knew that he looked at my history before seeing me Because he knew ahead of time that my case medical history was complex. He ordered more tests To check on other things before he would be Able to tell me what options I have for treatment That are safe for me. That is what shows me that he cares about me and my health matters! Thank you Dr Javahery!!

Dr. Javahery is an amazing neurosurgeon. My spouse needed brain surgery to clip an artery, extremely rare and dangerous case. I seriously believe he saved my spouse’s life. When he came onboard with the other physicians, Javahery believed he could help us. He took his time communicating to us the procedure. We were frightened but wanted to put our trust in him. The surgery was a success considering the circumstances and difficulties. Dr. Javahery bedside manner and skill set is amazing, he is thee #1 neurosurgeon I would not hesitate to recommend. He is truly a Godsend and we’re blessed to have him.
