Unfortunately I developed additional back pain. I went and got the MRI and CT scan for my lower back. On 7/14/2021, Dr. Traina did a decompression of the L-4,L5-S1 levels. From the very friendly staff, including Maria who schedules all surgical procedures it was very easy to set up the surgery. Dr. Traina takes the time to answer your questions and is very caring to his patients. I would highly recommend this surgeon. read more

For around 20 years, I have consulted off and on with Dr. Traina for various neurological health issues that came up in my life. Because of his guidance and recommendations, such as MRI's, Cat Scans, physical therapy, etc., I was able to deal with such problems without having to undergo surgery. Experience, honesty and professional integrity is what counts, and this doctor has always kept me as a happy patient as a result of it. One day I may need or choose to have surgery, and when that time may possibly arise, I am hoping that Dr. Traina will still be there for my surgical needs. read more

I just had 2 appointments with Dr Traina and if you have not used him before, do not. I saw him for neck and back pains and showed him all my previous doctor's notes, records and CD's of various imaging studies. After looking at all I brought him, he assured me there is nothing he can (or will) do to help me and he has absolutely why I have the pains I have. The worst part of these 2 visits is that he made it painfully and obviously clear he could not wait to finish with me and have me leave. He could not have made this any more clear even if he said get out. The worst thing he did was, at what became the end of my 2nd and last visit, I stood up and said "well, I guess we're done here". He said "you're right", got up and just walked away leaving me and my wife sitting there. My first-hand suggestion is unless you want to throw your co-pays in the trash can, find another doctor. Perhaps one that shows a little bit of concern. read more

Dr. Wolf is one of the few Ivy Leaguers I've met in this part of the world. He uses a Gamma Knife…read moreto treat Acustic Neuroma tumors and in my case it's been all great for four years. The doctor is well respected in his field and was recommended to me when this thing was diagnosed in Los Angeles. One of the well know neurosurgeons at the House Ear Institute said, "See him if you want a proper job done." Dr. Wolf uses The Gamma Knife, at his state of the art facility, which is used to treat brain tumors by administering high-intensity cobalt radiation therapy in a manner that concentrates the radiation over a small volume. A Gamma Knife typically contains 201 cobalt-60 sources of approximately 30 curies, each placed in a circular array in a heavily shielded assembly. The device aims gamma radiation through a target point in the patient's brain. The patient wears a specialized helmet that is surgically fixed to the skull, so that the brain tumor remains stationary at the target point of the gamma rays. An ablative dose of radiation is thereby sent through the tumor in one treatment session, while surrounding brain tissues are spared. Gamma Knife therapy, like all radiosurgery, uses doses of radiation to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors, delivered precisely to avoid damaging healthy brain tissue. Gamma Knife radiosurgery is able to accurately focus many beams of gamma radiation to converge on one or more tumors. Each individual beam is of relatively low intensity, so the radiation has little effect on intervening brain tissue and is concentrated only at the tumor itself. Gamma Knife radiosurgery has proven effective for patients with benign or malignant brain tumors up to 4 centimeters in size, vascular malformations such as an arteriovenous malformation (AVM), pain or other functional problems. For treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, the procedure may be used repeatedly on patients. After my treatment I recovered immediately and have progressed from a guy walking along a sidewalk and bumping into telephone poles to a tennis playing guy who never wavers. In a jiffy he cured the bloody thing. I get an MRI once a year and return for a read. Wolf is a Yale Medical School grad and that counts for a lot in my book. I once visited Yale Medical in order to deliver a check from my father's charitable foundation and was very impressed. The dean was a charmer and convinced me that the money would be spent as we had directed. (I think it's the best medical school in the country.) Their office is so pleasant and the decor is soothing. The parking is easy with a big lot directly in front. A walk of a few feet takes one to an elevator (The building has only two floors.) which opens directly in front of their door. It is nice to go to a treatment center and not have to walk a mile (UofM comes to mind.) and constantly ask directions. There was some good design and thought put into this location. After I completed my consultation, I chatted with some the friendly staff who informed me that on my next visit I can have my MRI on the first floor and then immediately be wisked to Dr. Wolf on the second; now that is convenient. Anyway, kudos for Dr. Wolf and his VERY snappy staff who are always spot on and make my visit smooth as silk. For my money the only thing lacking here is an enlarged center with more doctors whose specialty field might be brain oncology and others whit specialities as Dr. Wolf determines necessary. I was connected with a charitable foundation that gave mostly to medical and I think that with the right kind of foundation behind him Dr. Wolf could develop a major neuroscience center in Miami with world wide reputation. Dr. Wolf's center could be be a center of excellence in neuroscience and oncology that would work with new cancer treatments and he might partner with leading academic institutions around the country. It is not a very big jump when you have the talent and foresight that is his.

He drilled me as if I was lying about my pain.. He couldn't bring the MRI cd to actually view it but he could give his opinion that my dizzy sensation isn't coming from my neck.. also I don't need surgery just by a physical examination by squeezing his hand... I wouldn't recommend him to a dog .. Very rude, very unprofessional, he went over his opinion concerning me in front of the staff at the check out desk, after they removed me & my daughter from to room into the hall with two chairs ..Yes he did that, he gave his opinion in front of three desk workers that should be against HIPAA .. this should've been done in private.... Thank God His opinion doesn't matter. Not to mention I sat out there in the waiting room over 1 hour and a half, then 30 minutes in the back..

I ended up finding Paty through Yelp and reached out to her for an appointment. After filling out a quick questionnaire, she gave a me a call and we discussed all the aspects in my life that have been causing me despair. From the moment we spoke a calm came over me. Some people have that effect and Paty is definitely one of them. I felt like she understood me immediately. I then set-up a face to face meeting at her office. Our first session she explained to me all about chakras and energy and how everything around me can affect that, including food, people, and my thoughts. We delved deeper into the issues I had and she gave me a lot of recommendations. We then moved on to the Reiki part of the session. I went into it not knowing what to expect or what to believe and I left there feeling like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders. I felt balance. Which is what I have been after for a long time. Some info: - The session lasted about an hour 1/2. I think they are usually an hour but they could run a little longer depending on the client. - Her office is located in Pinecrest, where she can meet with you on certain days. She has a calendar online where you can set that up. - Paty is a very spiritual person. It doesn't mean you need to religious or super spiritual but I do think you need to be open to her and to the process in order to have a good session. - $ - I know people are always concerned with money. Once you reach out to Paty and speak with her, she will recommend a time frame to work with you and provide you with package options. She was so kind and understanding and able to work with me. I will say this - it was well worth it and I have only done one session. I am looking forward to my next session with Paty.

when i say that ive had the worst experience at 27 weeks pregnant... the receptionist was so rude, and after i complained to my doctor, he said if i felt this way to go else where!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wowwwwwwwwwwwww after i was in complete shock, he then said 'either way, im still delivering 30 babies a month'. he must not care for his patients. i will never go back to him again, nor will i recommend him. the worst!!!!!!!!!!! and NOT to mention, after the dispute i had with the receptionist, i went to use the bathroom inside the office and when I came out, I caught her mocking me in the Doctor's office (LIKE SAYING, OH SHE WAS DOING THIS AND DOING THAT AND BASICALLY MAKING FUN OF ME!!!! I was about to start foaming out the mouth with how rude she was! She didn't even care that I could see her. What kind of office is this??? SOOO UNPROFESSIONAL. And the Dr didn't even apologize or reprimand her for her behavior. No pregnant woman should have to encounter this and start looking for a new Dr especially at 7 months pregnant. he could seriously care less that I left. Not to mention, I was initially there to take my diabetes test. He was going to let me walk out with my records without drawing my blood!! Thank God I read up on gestational diabetes and knew that I had to get it done that week so I stayed just to finish that up. That shows alot on his character. I should have left a long time ago!!! PLEASE READ THIS AND TAKE IT INTO CONSIDERATION. THE DR THINKS HE IS THE BEST DR AROUND AND IS UNTOUCHABLE. HE CAN'T SAY OR LET SOMETHING LIKE THIS SLIDE JUST BECAUSE HE HAS HIS OWN PRACTICE! On top of all this, if you do get him as your obstetrician, more than likely you will only see him once the whole pregnancy since he will send his brother( Dr Albert Triana) to see you. he also works in his practice. The brother Albert is much better by the way! But still, if he is labeled as your doctor, you should be able to talk and speak with him. I seriously only saw him once out of the many appointments I had. He needs to wipe that smirk he has on his face and take customer service and patients feelings into consideration. After that comment he made about "no matter what review I write, etc, that he will still deliver 30 babies a month, well..not anymore.. he will deliver 29 because I will never go back to him!!!!!!!!!!! read more
