Having Dr. Rajnik Raab as my spine Neurosurgeon was one of life's great full-circle moments! I had…read morealready decided upon Dr. Colin Harris as my Orthopedic Spine Surgeon when a friend reached out with the name of a highly recommended Spinal Neurosurgeon: Dr. Rajnik Raab. It was mere coincidence that Dr. Raab is also part of the CNSO medical team! This connection affirmed that CNSO was indeed the correct practice for me. For cases such as mine, the CNSO surgical team includes surgeons from both spinal disciplines: Orthopedic Spine Surgeon AND a Spinal Neurosurgeon. This combination was super-important to me and actually one of the main reasons that I went with CNSO. I met with Dr. Raab and I immediately liked him. He is very calm, warm, and articulate. He further clarified and explained the issues/situation around the progressive, painful deformity in my spine (Scheuermann's disease) that I had lived with for years. He appreciated my questions and my understanding, which he also further impressed upon me, of the seriousness and the recovery challenges associated spinal surgery. In January, Dr. Harris and Dr. Raab performed a 13-vertebrae (T2-L2) spinal fusion on my spine. The results are absolutely incredible and I couldn't be more pleased (no more pain & no more ugly thoracic hump)!! I highly recommend Dr. Raab for anyone in need of a Neurosurgeon.

I had a breast lift on one side and a reduction and lift with some lipo on the other. This is…read morebecause I had a lumpectomy in the past so I was uneven. The lumpectomy side just needed a lift. The staff and facility I thought was great. The end result a year later is that I do think they look much better, but I don't feel they look the same. The shape is different. This may be because of the prior lumpectomy but I think this should have been taken into consideration. Also the side i had the lipo looks like it needs a bit more lipo as you can see a section that clearly needs a bit more. There is like a layer of fat. When I went to my last follow up, the Dr wasn't there. And he wasn't there on a few follow up visits. The nurse was, to take some final pics and said I can have a bit more lipo done, but it would be another lipo procedure, meaning I would have to pay again. Which I feel to be unfair as I already paid to make them look the same. And already paid for lipo. This was expensive ..all in all, I feel they look better than before but still don't think paying for more lipo is quite fair. Also while I was recovering one side got a fungal Infection. I don't know how that could happen as I kept it very clean and followed all the directions. All I can think of is the tape that was put on was not put on properly and moisture got beneath it. I had to go in and have the tape removed earlier than expected, and put anti fungal medication on. It wasn't even noticed , as I was sending photos, until I specifically pointed it out. So I did have a difficult recovery. It was a stressful time for me.

Office staff does not not know how to process claims related to auto insurance. A basic auto insurance claim has still not been properly processed 5 months later due to the ineptitude of the entire practice.

Direct quote from site administrator, "We retract ALL MEDICAL ADVICE we gave you." While Dr. Pierce comes off as a nice person, his company does not mirror this by their actions. Managers for the doctors are atrocious and are emotionally vapid. They have zero interest in the care of their patients. Avoid this practice at all costs.

Prior to surgery I suffered for 7+ years with constant pain and the inability to do common everyday things we all take for granted.

However, I feel compelled to share my disappointing experience with the Wayne office. Dr. Gritsus himself was great--kind, informative, and professional. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for his staff, specifically Adriana, the surgical coordinator. I had my initial consultation with Dr. Gritsus on May 19th at 4:30 PM, likely one of the last appointments of the day. At the end of the visit, I was told my surgery could be scheduled. A medical assistant (I assume) informed me that Adriana had already left for the day but would call me the next day to move forward with scheduling. That call never came. I followed up myself on May 23rd. I was told Adriana wasn't answering and that a message would be left for her. Still, I heard nothing. I called again on May 29th and was once again told she had left for the day. I asked about her schedule, and oddly, the staff didn't know it--yet somehow always knew she had "just left." I called back once more on May 30th and spoke with Brian. He was sympathetic and said he would email Adriana, copying in the office manager and her supervisor, to make sure I received a call from her that same day--or by Monday at the latest. It is now Monday afternoon. Still no call. After weeks of being in pain and getting nowhere, I now have no choice but to find another doctor and start the process all over again. It's incredibly frustrating and disheartening. I truly don't understand how someone so critical to the scheduling process can be so unresponsive--and still employed. The office is likely losing revenue and, more importantly, patient trust because of this. Thankfully, my situation isn't life-threatening, but it could be for someone else.
