Dr. Azedine N Medhkour, MD

Since my original (amazing) Neurosergeon Dr. Gaudin has left, I’ve had several appointments with Dr. Medhkour. Each time our appointments are over, I feel that NOTHING gets accomplished, and am left with anger, frustration, anxiety, and pain. Waiting to get an appointment takes time, waiting for an MRI takes a long time, and all of this time, I am still having ALL of the same problems that I made my original appointment for. He has done nothing to improve the quality of my life, in fact, it has done just the opposite. It has been excruciating, waiting to just get to the point of having the appointment, but then adding disappointment, frustration, and sadness, to my ailments AFTER my appointments with Dr. Medhkour. He has left me worse off each time that I’ve had an appointment with him. Today was the last. I was already in horrible shape, and he had no problem ending our appointment knowing that he had left me in worse shape then I was prior to speaking with him. I don’t understand how a doctor could do that in good conscience. He will no longer be my doctor, I will be firing him as my Neurosergeon. Because of how disgusted I am with his performance as a “doctor” forces me to wait with my same problems for the entire time I search for a new doctor, then the time it will take just to get in to see him. Which will leave me with the same problems (that I had come to him with, originally) plus, now the added stress of having to find a new Neurosergeon in the middle of a pandemic. Horrible.

went out of his way to help us, more than most doctors would do. completely trustworthy, and has the experience and skill to excel at what he does.

Is a excellent, Doctor. Explained everything in detail, so you could understand. Gave options for treatment. Follow up also top rated. Spends time evaluating you, instead like most othet Doctors runi in the room thows a script at you and leaves. Would 100% send family or friends if needed.

The wait times were unprofessional, he overtalked me as the patient and over and over again focused on insurance paying for my surgery. I made numerous complaints directly to him and his staff to have my access to my patient records and portal removed to silence my complaints of his substandard care. I asked for a second opinion after he strung me along for a Y E A R to only say I wouldn't be considered a surgical candidate. Upon second opinion I underwent a 3 level cervical fusion. The same surgery this provider said I did not need!!!

I use the term doctor loosely! Doesn't bother to listen to patient. Very rude and condescending.

I had a previous surgery 14 years ago by a different Dr. This Dr. Had my results and scheduled me as soon as possible. I had to have several pre surgery tests, by other Dr.which where very fast also. I had surgery within 3 weeks. He was excellent presurgery,while in hospital and has excellent post surgery care. Medicated appropriately. My care is on going.

Very thankful to Dr. medkhor his skills made my life so much better.

Dr. Medhkour is a brilliant surgeon. He clipped my daughters Brain Aneurysm. We got to know the staff in the office very well and they are all wonderful and caring people. I think you should ask different questions for the rating. Questions like, What is the quality of life like now for the patient? AND Is the patient alive because of Dr. Medhkour? Instead of how long did you have to wait? Or did he spend enough time with me. My daughters surgery was almost 10 hours long. I think that is a long time to be spending with someone. He is a SURGEON, not a nurse.

Dr. Medhkour performed a laminectomy on me. I came out of surgery a hemaplegic. I spent time in rehab and learned how to walk and use my hand. Dr. Medhkour was there by my side! He has excellent manners and his nurse Becky was very caring. I would absolutely recommend him to all new patients!

I am a 24 year old female with two boys, age 5 and 3. I had a hernaited disc in my back and he shoved other people out of the way to get me in. I am stuck with 6rods,6screws, and a tiatanium cage in my lower back and fusion done.. I can not lift, twist, stand for a long time, walk for a long time, and Lay down with out pain.. I can not do anything with out hurting, I have found out from other doctors that sugery should of been the last result.I am very upset they way Ihave to live my life in pain everyday.. I went and had a procdure done and when I ask him what the results was he said nothing was there. When I started seeing a pain mangement doctor he pulled my chart from that test and behind all of that I had buldging disc. I got out of sugery and he didnt put me is physical therapy and he should of.. Everytime I seen this doctor he kept telling me i neeed to loose weight, Once he hadd grabbed my stomach and told me (I dont want to see this) I'm very upset and in pain the rest of my life. On my very last vist he told me the pain was just in my brain. MALPRACTICE OR WHAT? I have some much problems with my legs back and nerves its so unreal. I dont reccomed him periode. I thiunk it was a unnessary sugery ?
