Dr. James Brian Manzanares, MD

Wonderful physician. Kind, caring and extremely knowledgeable. No rush and extreme concern for patient. Would highly recommend

Performed a minimally invasive lumbar surgery on me for foraminal stenosis which worked out very well. I was impressed with his staff and surgical team also.

I had given up and resigned myself to a life of chronic pain and immobility at an early age until I met Dr. Manzanares, Jo and his team. Words cannot express how grateful I am that Dr. Kevin Lam referred me to Dr. Manzanares. He is kind, compassionate and knows exactly what he is doing. His evaluation and treatment plan has already stopped my frightening deterioration in its tracks and I feel hope for the first time in two years. I would send my closest loved ones to him in a heartbeat. If I do eventually need surgery, I would not trust anyone but him.

Very thorough examination with detailed explanations to questions asked.

A family friend recommended Dr.Jim after a successful surgery. He took care of me, and treated me like family. I have not felt so good in years!

Never made me feel like I was asking dumb questions. Dr Manzanares was very approachable and made me feel like I was speaking with a friend.

Dr. Manzanares explained what was going to happen with the operation in great detail before the operation occurred. I was very scared and unsure, but once he explained everything that was going to happen and why it needed to be done I was much calmer. Just before the surgery he said a prayer with me which I had never had any doctor do.

I always had the feeling that I was family. He gave out his personal cell phone number, always answered my questions and texts. I was made to feel very comfortable with Dr. Manzanares.

Excellent doctor who cares about patients well being.

After waiting over two hours past my appointment time, staff informed me Dr M had departed the office 1/2 hour earlier. No explanation was offered as to why he did this.
