dr kolb has done surgery on me 4 times. he is brillant.

Walked into surgery but never walked out.

Great job

Dr. Kolb was absolutely outstanding throughout my entire surgery process. As a 27 year old who just moved to New Haven for grad school at Yale within the last two months, learning that I had a tumor in my spine was a very difficult time. However, Dr. Kolb approached the issue with the perfect balance of stating the facts and pros and cons of surgery while also allowing space for emotions and coming to grips with the diagnosis. Dr. Kolb took as much time as I needed to answer every question I had about my diagnosis and my options. My procedure was originally scheduled for about 7 hours but ended up taking 12 hours as Dr. Kolb very meticulously removed an extremely complicated tumor that was entwined with a nerve and artery. A post-op MRI showed the tumor was completely removed. After surgery, the feeling in my leg was immediately restored, an absolutely amazing feeling. There are very few people who have made a significant direct impact on my quality of life and Dr. Kolb is… one of them. Heaven forbid if I need to have neurosurgery again, I will certainly be flying to Yale New Haven Health and having Dr. Kolb perform the surgery regardless of where I'm living at the time.

Had spine surgery about 2 years ago and things went very well, nearly pain free and still very flexible. Could not remove the nerve damage that was already done but nobody can. Good doctor.

Dr. Kolb is very kind and caring. He takes his time which is really important. He listens really well and makes sure you understand everything he is telling you. He is operating on me next month which I will be able to post another review.

Great surgeon!
