Dr. Alan Mechanic, MD

Back in 1996 Dr Mechanic operated on my Father, who was in a bad car accident on the Northern State Pkwy.....I received a phone call from Winthrop Hospital and all we knew was that he was being operated on...when it was over, Dr Mechanic came down to the waiting room....introduced himself to me, my Mom and my Aunt which led to a very comical situation he introduced himself and my Aunt Gloria just looked at him and said "You gotta' be kidding me !!" I'm sure that wasn't the first time he heard that !! but he ended up piecing my Fathers skull back together and my Father has been fine ever since....he's 85 and still going strong thanks to Dr Mechanic....on behald of my whole family....THANK YOU and God bless you Doc....we couldn't have asked for a more caring and gifted Doctor and also a very nice guy....God bless Doc

My experience was not what I expected from this referral. I did not feel like I was being heard for the seriousness of my condition. Only to find out my MRI report was written incorrectly by the Radiologist and even though the disc was submitted and the time of my appointed it was overlooked as well. I do not feel I got an accurate diagnosis because missed information was not reviewed.

dr.Mechanic did my spine surgery on c7-8, I thought I was going to be paralyzed from neck down thats how serious/bad it felt. I am back to normal and don't even feel I had 5 hour surgery done with titanium plate and 3 screws in my neck...amazing....Thanks Doc : )
