Dr. David is knowledgeable and caring. I had a complicated surgery need, but then again I suspect that most of his surgeries are complex. He took the time ahead of time to tell me my options and gently offered his recommendations, at a time when I was scared. When the time came to perform the surgery, he gave me the confidence I needed to move forward and the result was fixing my problem perfectly. Afterwards, not only did he just check on my overall health, he also took the time to check out my wound to assure that he was healing correctly. The end result was a scar that's barely noticeable in a very visible place. Dr. David is not only an amazing surgeon, he's also an artist. I would trust Dr. David with my life, after all, I've done that before and I'm still here to talk about it.

Dr David treated my acoustic neuroma, diagnosis to surgery to followup. At every step he was superb, carefully explaining everything in a manner easy to understand. The surgery's results were outstanding with none of the potential hazards occurring. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him as a physician and surgeon.

All I can say is Dr. David saved my life. I had 3 aneurysms clipped. He took great care to explain the procedure and the after care to me and my husband - especially my husband since Dr. David could see that I was in denial. Dr. David's care and thoughtfulness is deeply appreciated by me and my family.

I most strongly believe that Dr. David is perhaps the finest neurosurgeon in the United States right now. Simply the best. Unmatched expert knowledge of his extremely complex specialty, absolutely gifted surgeon, patient, talented, caring, thorough. He is the one surgeon too turn to when faced with this most difficult medical emergency. No higher recommendation can be made.

Let me just say that Dr. David is the most compassionate doctor with a wonderful bedside manner. I had a major brain surgery and all went well with Dr. David.

Dr David provided me with all the information I needed and answered my questions honestly and in a way that I could understand. I felt truly confident that my brain aneurysm clipping would be successful and I fully understood the healing process. I would highly recommend Dr David and am so grateful to him and his wonderful team.
