Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Dumont epitomizes skill and compassion
Dr Dumont has performed two surgeries on me and one on my wife. His skill is unparalleled and his level of calm compassion is quite remarkable.

Aaron Dumont is a cruel, non-compassionate white coat! I had to drive an hour and a half to get to my appointment with him. I didn’t know the area, I didn’t realize how far I’d have to walk from my vehicle, and I was in tremendous pain as a result of my lower back issues, thus the reason for my appointment. Well, that appointment turned into a disappointment quickly as the super hero’s mask came off revealing a monster. I was literally 2 minutes late for my appointment. This unprofessional and arrogant person refused to see me due to that two minutes. No compassion, no consideration, no heart. Isn’t that the opposite of what you want in someone dealing with your health? My advice is that you find another doctor, a real doctor.

Amazing, Dr. Dumont was absolutely the right choice. He cured me! My back surgery went great and I have a strength I haven't had in 20 years. Muscles coming back to life. The minimally invasive procedure was the way to go.

Dr. Dumont is a life saver. My surgery for Trigeminal Neuralgia completely eliminated my facial pain. He explained in detail everything prior to the surgery and he has an excellent rapport with the patient. I would highly recommend him and his team.

Dr Dumont might be a good surgeon but if you have a problem after the surgery it is almost impossible to get an appointment to see him.I had a CT scan on 1/8/18 for ACDF surgery C4 thru C7 and it's 3/7/18 and haven't seen him for the results yet.All the Neurosurgeon's in this practice only go to East Jefferson once a week.Think twice before seeing them

I'm not a patient of his, but I have worked with him in the operating room and I was impressed by how skilled and professional he was. He genuinely cares about his patients, he has a calming presence, and he's very knowledgeable. I would trust him with my family member.

New Orleans, LA – Oct 18, 2017

I've had two bone fusion surgeries in the past, and my previous doctor has since retired. One of the rods in my back broke. After seeing two other doctors that never once looked at my back or checked anything other than an x-ray, a friend recommended Dr. Dumont. He has exceeded my expectations in every way. He is very humble and it's shocking how he does things most doctors would have a nurse do. He always put the patient first. Everything you'd want in a Doctor. I would recommend him to anyone!
