Very disappointing he never listened to me spoke over me ,and don’t really care ,he just got up and said have a good day n left in the middle of me talking I would say more but I don’t want to waste my time not even a half of star

I have had four back surgeries with Dr medary. Unfortunately I have a spine that keeps deteriorating upwards after he repairs a lower section. He does wonderful work. He will tell you like it is. If he can help you he will fix you if he can't help he will tell you so he's very honest man.

Dr. Medary was very dismissive. He did not listen to me at all, spoke over me to tell me there’s nothing wrong with me, did not do any type of check - not even vitals were taken. He did not listen when I tried to tell him why I referred to him. He was quick to tell me stop going to doctors. I actually hardly EVER go to any doctor unless as a last resort. I was appalled at the treatment I received.

I had neck surgery by Dr Medary 2vweeks ago and an very happy with the results. Before surgery I could hardly swallow due to a high bone spur pressing on my esophagus. I also had neck disc problems. The pain was horrible. After surgery I am 100 % better.

I visited Dr. Medary three months ago, he was recommended by my primary doctor and, I was so scared because I did not know about my diagnosis, I had Chiari type 1, I had never heard about that. He took plenty of time to answer every question and make us feel comfortable before and after surgery when he checked on me in the hospital. Once again he took his time to explain and answer questions to my family. Now I'm feeling really good and I don't' have pain any more. Thanks Dr. Medary you have changed my life!. If I would have another neurologic disease I would come to him again for sure.

Dr medary saw my MRI and told me to meet him at the hospital because it needed to be removed right away. He was referred by my primary dr. He took plenty of time to answer questions and make us feel comfortable before surgery and after when he checked on me in the hospital. Also took plenty of time to answer my wife and kids questions and had cared for me through this whole process . If the cancer returns I would use him again for sure.

Dr. Medary is a wonderful neurological surgeon. I have no pain, even after two years out from surgery. I recommend him to anyone needing neck/spine surgery. He is the best!

all i can say is that Dr Medary is amazing had two surgeries done by him in the last year and he change my life for good amazing easy recovery.

Bad after care. Srgical site got infected, was told dont go to ER its nirmal. No culture or mri ordered when ER contacted him. Staph infection on brain and boneflap had to be removed by another surgeon as a result. Brown ooze and puss not normal sir.

Dr. Medary is a competent, wonderful and very knowledgeable doctor. I moved here from Michigan and needed to find a neurosurgeon as I was told I needed surgery. I had 3 back surgeries 20 years ago, so I needed a doctor with experience. I found one! He answered all my questions, and explained everything in terms I understood! The office personal was also wonderful!! and kind! SO thankful to find Dr. Medary!

As a patient for many years I can assure anyone that not ONLY did Dr. Medary correct the surgery on my L5-S1 that another local "expert" messed up - I have played tennis again. He has a deep sense of humor that could be misdiagnosed if not recognized, but NO other surgeon could be a better choice. When my hubby had to seek back restoration we did not even get a second opinion. IT WAS 100% Dr. Max Medary.

It seems like some of the negative reviews I have read about Dr. Medary are from patients who he has not operated on. My situation is different. I heard about him from church friends who were very happy with their TOTAL experience with him. I was fortunate that I was able to consult with him soon after I started having serious sciatic nerve pain problems so bad that I could not walk. After his review of my MRI and diagnosis, he felt positive that he could repair the three disk and vertebrae problems I had suffer with for many years. Importantly, he felt confident that he could operate on all three of my problem areas in one surgery at the nearby Dr. Phillips Hospital. The surgery went well under his capable and experienced hands and the hospital staff was wonderful. The manner in which he explained what needed to be done, how it was to be accomplished, and what my short term recovery would be was exceptional. He took the time to answer every question my husband and I had with great professionalism and in a manner that gave us the feeling that there would be a very good likelihood of success. As I look back weeks after my surgery by Dr. Medary and the elimination of my leg pain, I still very much feel that the total experience of putting myself in his hands was a very wise decision. His office and hospital surgical staff were wonderful throughout the process. For that above reasons, I would recommend him to anyone who HE feels he can help to improve the quality of their lives.

If you want a warm and fuzzy surgeon that is a "1.5" .... there a MANY in Central Florida. If you want the BEST surgical care then Dr. Medary is among the best. Maybe trying to improve his bedside manner he can make a joke that does not seem funny - and maybe he can tell in 5 minutes that surgery should be your last resort - and just MAYBE his social skills on Monday & Friday when he is not doing SURGERY on mostly very grateful patients who are not among the 25 that took the time for this commentary - he needs a specialist himself on his always busy and often abused staff - a specialist who can deal with the negative % that would overlook what he is WONDERFUL AT - SURGERY> Just my 2 cents worth - because I had the other surgeon and Max saved me from a lifetime of pain and probably more.

NO other would work on my back - THE BEST - and he has a good sense of humor......

I was able to get an appt. with this neurosurgeon sooner than several others I contacted by weeks. He was friendly and spoke in layman's terms instead of medical terminology. He was clear in his explanation of my condition and future care. I would highly recommend this doctor.

I saw Dr. Medary for the first time today. I read all the negative reviews and have to admit they gave me pause. I was anxious about the appointment today, but Dr. Medary was very kind and patient, and went over everything with me. I will be having surgery soon for an anterior discectomy at several levels. He told me he has done thousands of these and I am hopeful that mine will be successful. The only reason I am giving 4 star vs 5 is because I haven't had the surgery yet.

You expect a doctor to be compassionate, kind, concerned. Not arrogant, impatience and visibly angry that my family doctor referred me. Left in tears.

He performed cervical fusion 2 yrs ago.. The pain n numbness still there.. Went back to him with xrays and MRI results n CD, that he sent me to take.. When i went back to him , he would not even look at me.. His response was there's nothing wrong with the surgery I performed.. He was so rude to me I felt like crying.. I was so disappointed, because i let this monster operate on me..His license should be revoked. He has no compassion for humans he should not be a Doctor. I would not recommend him. SOB is racist..

One of the worst experiences I have had with a Dr! He is a condescending rude person!! He cursed at me and told me I was too young to be in his office. If you are looking for a Dr with great bedside manner he is not for you. He staff was rude as well and I had to wait an hr and half to be told I was a waste of his time!

I had cervical spine fusion and all things considered - could not have been happier with Dr. Medary. I would send family members and friends in need.
