Dr. Neuwirth and the Assistant were wonderful! They took a full history and treated my issues with professionalism and experience.
I have a follow-up appointment with Dr. Lee for pain management.

I really liked the doctor and NP that I saw. The medical assistant was a bit curt and unfriendly. I would have appreciated getting the appropriate intake forms prior to my visit, which would have saved a lot of time at the visit.

Dr. Neuwirth and his PA did a thorough exam and provided me with information regarding the next step. He provided the name of physician and helped me make appointment.

I had a spinal fusion surgery with him in 1995 and 25 years later my back and the rods are still in place and I've had minimal issues since then. I went to him recently because i was experiencing back pain which thankfully is muscular and has nothing to do with the surgery or hardware. The exam is incredibly through-- the PA Siena i amazing too. You do not feel rushed at this office, so there may be a wait time but that's because they take their time with their patients and give them the attention they need.

Listened and explained everything.

Dr Neuwirth was extremely knowledgeable and down to earth. He was extremely patient and answered all of my questions and even told me to call him should I think of any others. I would send my family to him in a heartbeat.

I had a great experience with everyone I encountered yesterday! From check in, to the nurse who took my vitals, to Gilda and Dr. Neuwirth... everyone was extremely personable AND helpful. Couldn't believe they did X-rays on the spot with instant review. Excellent.
May 16, 2017Molly C.Verified patient
The Nurse Practitioner (Gilda) and Doctor were wonderful. I felt they focused on my issues, listened to my concerns, carefully evaluated me and conservatively diagnosed me. Everything before them was not so great.
I arrived 25 minutes early to fill out forms and sign all the legal stuff. The front desk was mostly rude, seemed utterly disorganized and were quick to offer two other clients information on how to complain to their managers. Perhaps they take a lot of crap from people...
At my appointment time I finally got the forms. (I asked on arrival and again after 15mins. I also offered my MRI files so they could be uploaded but they didn't want to take them.). I rushed filling out all the paper work and waited. I got called fairly soon their after however none of my information was inputted so I answered verbally all the basic questions in the room. There were just so many administrative points where a lot of time could have been saved.

Firstable Due to my Job I was late, I had called the Dr's office five minutes before my appointment letting them know that, they said it was OK, so I kept going there, as soon I got there I did fill the forms?? In order to save time I did online previously, so I did again at the office, so I don't know what is the purpose filling the forms online. Dr. N. saw me and told me four times I was late and he had not enough time to spend with me but doesn't matter how late I was he is going to claim my visit to the insurance and he is going to get paid for a regular and no rush visit, I wa expecting more from him but I do not recommended him, get on time at your appt. I am pretty sure you be treated the same. Later on I saw him walking around??? Need time?

Dr. Neuwrith was thorough and suggested that I take an MRI.
A day after the MRI was done, he personally called me with the results (later I received the CD) and he explained my options. I choose to go the way of epidural injections to see if my problem clears up.
I was impressed with everyone at the office from the clerks, staff, and of course, Dr. Neuwirth. --- thank you

Very warm and yet very professional. Perfect combination of the two. If I decide to have the surgery – he is the surgeon I will use.
