I met with him, and he yelled at me, mocked me, talked to me like I was an idiot child. Scoffed at me after he asked me if I was married, had a boyfriend, or had any children, and I said no. Wouldn't go over my MRI with me. I had to ask his nurse after he left the room to ask for my results. Everyone praises him to the sky's, but he really has it out for single independent women.

We flew across the country to see Dr Linskey and it was well worth it. He spent so much time with us, explained things very thoroughly, and was kind and compassionate. We are so happy to have sought his expertise and could not believe how much time and attention he gave us. Thank you, Dr. Linskey!

Dr.Linskey is the reason I am alive today. He is the kindest, smartest, and most careful surgeon I have ever met. I had 3 tumors removed from my Pituitary gland and I literal tears have my life back. If you have cushing’s disease he will save you. I felt so safe in his hospital and the after care was fantastic. I traveled to have my surgery with him. Certainly highly recommend this surgeon!

My mother recently had brain surgery on the 2nd of this month for her Trigeminal Neuralgia. She was taken great care of. She is expected to return home this Sunday. I didn't know whether this man would be good or not. But, my mother's recovery process and the care she was given during let me know that she was in great hands.

I was in such extreme pain with TN when I saw Dr Linskey that I couldn't even talk without pain. He showed such compassion toward my situation, presented me with a complete list of options before we both decided on Micro Vascular Decompression (MVD) being the best course of action for my case. A great bedside manner, he is all there for you until your questions are answered. I'm so thankful Dr. Linskey was my neurosurgeon given the complexity of what my problem that involved 3 veins & 2 arteries wrapped around the nerve. Before surgery I was in pain, afterward - cured! If you are considering MVD, I strongly recommend trying to see Dr Linskey as he is probably one of the top few surgeons in the country capable of dealing with whatever complexities that are discovered in treating this disorder.

If you are in need of Micro Vascular Decompression (MVD) surgery for Trigeminal Neuralgia. Dr. Linskey is one of a handful of neurosurgeons nationwide who achieve the outcomes he does. We are so fortunate to have him in our community. He has been recognized as one of the nation's top docs and neurosurgeons. I know he operates on more than just TN patients with excellent results. He operated on me and I will forever be indebted. He is the best.
