Dr.Greenfield is so kind and listens to every single thing you have to say. We came from Tennessee to see him from other reviews. It was well worth the money and time for the best surgeon to see our daughter.

Appreciated his expertise on the condition and giving us answers we needed. With so many doctors pointing us in different directions, he was clear and gave us a plan. Very personable and willing to answer questions.

After surgery with him I not only got worse but his aftercare was a nightmare! I felt ignored and my symptoms got so bad that by the time things got figured out I needed to have a shunt placed. Worst experience of my life! So happy I have a new surgeon that is competent and professional.

Did my moms surgery and told her a bunch of things that he changed said he didn’t say after the surgery. My mom is doing worse then before her surgery.

Had surgery after trusting his word. Complications shortly after and he wouldn’t see me for months. Only his PA. Then wouldn’t do adequate testing to see what was wrong. Had to have another surgery to fix what was done incorrectly. Make sure you are thorough with him!
