I just got home yesterday after spinal surgery and except for some minor adjustments with pain medication I am feeling great. Walking, sitting, standing and showering by myself. I am very pleased with the surgery and especially Dr. Labiak. He kept in contact with my daughter after the surgery to explain everything to her but then also came to see me the next morning. He was wonderful. The wait for an appointment is pretty lengthy but now I can see why. Also the "open" hours for the office are a bit irregular so check the website for hours.

A little over a year ago, while in the fit of a lackadaisical moment, I had the great misfortune to…read moremiss the last step on my stairs and painfully land on the floor. After feeling a pop in my leg, I realized something wasn't right and insisted my Wife take me to Stony Brook hospital. We naturally had to wait in a room in The ER for an easy 5 hours. I had several Residents check my leg and even some mobile X-rays taken and we where all convinced that it was nothing more than a bad muscle pull... and on my own volition, swore I would go to a Physical Therapist the very next day. It was at the point past midnight that I threatened to take the wheel chair and leave... check out or not. I finally got to see the Doctor in charge and as he was ready to sign me out, insisted he take a look at the leg. Within one second he told me I definitely tore my Quad Tendon. Not something I wanted to hear at 12:45AM. He proceed to text a Orthopedic Surgeon at that hour and said to go there first thing in the morning. Again, not something you want to hear at that hour. I said I wanted to check around and look into one who my Wife was scheduled to see later that week for knee problems she was also having. Come the next day, I found I wouldn't get to see him for a few days. It was then that I realized that if a Doctor was looking at my case at 12:45 and making an appointment for me... maybe I should check into this route. Early the next morning, my Son drove me to Doctor Justin Mirza's busy office and he immediately took me in and confirmed the obvious. He was upbeat but still instilled the necessity of taking care of this as soon as possible. He booked me into surgery the day after, made sure I got a quick check up through an Associate that day, and wound up pushing me in for an early surgery, once again, remaining upbeat and positive. After this three hour procedure, I had a full length cast and let's face it, who the heck wants that? I had proceeded to make all my necessary Doctor visits and then some, and can only say that not only is he one adapt, knowledgeable Surgeon, but unquestionably the most humane, caring and funny person you could come across. He even went to great lengths to make my cast as comfortable as possible... but that's another story. Today, six months later, I've had my last visit with him and not only received a clean bill of healing, but also the confirmation of how well the injury sight remains... which I continue to hear from all levels of medical professionals, throughout my therapy process. As a matter of fact, he has somewhat achieved "rockstar" status from my case with these professionals. Granted, my swimsuit modeling career is over, but it was never that lucrative to begin with (sic). While I have to say, I hope I don't need his services any time soon, I am truly glad to the Attending Doctor in Stony Brook, who had the good sense to steer to me in the right direction. Truly a great Surgeon, an emphatic human being with an awesome staff. Thanks again Doctor Mirza! Sincerely Ted Brass

Dawn C, a licensed R.T., skillfully administered an X-ray today, and Dr. Goldstein interpreted the results. He assured me that my condition is stable despite the recent increase in intensity of my pain. He explained that I likely did something to aggravate my condition and that hopefully the pain will soon subside and, if not, I should make an appointment with a pain management specialist. Dr. Goldstein habitually prescribes physical therapy and medication and makes timely prescription renewals. He also suggests that I apply heat and cold packs on my back whenever necessary. The office staff is professional and skillful. Today I had a pleasant chit-chat with Siobhan, a receptionist who informed me about the pros and cons of different health insurance companies because Open Season on my job just finished.
