The best doctor! I sent my MRI and got an opinion with him regarding my neck problem. The visit offered me a lot of explanations my doctor in San Francisco didn't cover. Doctor Mindea is very knowledgeable and patient and I strongly recommend him.

Incredible neurosurgeon. I saw Dr Mindea when we were seeking a 3rd opinion for a very complex tumor my father-in-law had. He was very professional, realistic, and amazingly down to earth. I thank God we had a chance to be under his care. He was OUTSTANDING!

The doctor was great. He looked really young but my wife and I knew we wanted someone with the latest and greatest.I left the hospital the following day and I can't be happier with doctor Mindea. I can't recommend him enough

I had four prior surgeries on my spine and had lost nerve function. Dr Mindea came highly recommended. He did a minimally invasive surgery given my age, 81, and hasgiven me a new lease on life! I'm eternally grateful.

Dr. Mindea and his PA were generous with their time and provided the information in a caring manner necessary for me to make an informed decision. I was very happy with Stanford and with Dr. Mindea

Can't thank doctor Mindea enough. He's a great surgeon and when we were at radiology for xrays, all of the staff there said he was an excellent spine surgeon. He's respected throughout the hospital at Stanford.
