Dr. Rajiv Vishnu Taliwal, MD

Knows who I am What I need

Dr. Taliwal is very easy to understand and speak to. He tells you what you need to hear in terms you can understand. I recommend him to anyone with back and spine issues. He’s very good at what he does and I am better now than I ever been.

The doctor has an easy manner. He reviews tests with you and offers his opinion. His staff was friendly and the wait time is very short.

Everyone was absolutely amazing. I was treated with kindness and compassion during every interaction with the doctor and his staff.

Rude and unprofessional, I was referred to him from another surgeon. His response was he wouldn’t comment on their surgery. They shouldn’t comment on his left with no answers.

Dr. Taliwal listens closely and explains very well. What is going on with the spine. He is not one to rush to surgery and discuss his other options. I would and have definitely recommend him to friends and family.

Dr. Taliwal is fully informed of what is going on by the time he comes into the office. He spends time listening and explaining all options. I really appreciate how he doesn’t rushed to surgery but looks at other options. He has done three cervical fusions, and I have been pleased with each one. I highly recommend them to my friends and family.

Excellent physician with full understanding of my problem

I chose dr taliwal due to his high ratings. I just left his office disappointed. He seemed in a hurry, totally blew me off and didnt listen to me or give me a chance to ask questions.

Dr. Taliwal performed a one-level cervical ACDF for me. If you're reading these reviews, you're probably as nervous or scared as I was. When I scheduled, my physical therapist smiled and said I was I good hands with Taliwal. The surgery went well. I have seen him now for all my follow-ups. He is always upbeat and attentive. He tells me that I have a lifetime option to call him directly for anything pursuant to my conditions or symptoms should they reappear. I have a positive impression from my office visits; however, if I had 100 reasons for picking a spine surgeon, at least 95 of them would deal with the ability to operate next to my spinal column, not office manners. In my research, he seemed like a good choice, and my experience confirmed that.
