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.

Before I met Dr. Salkind I could not walk more than 3 minutes without my legs getting numb and unable to hold me up. Dr. Salkind did surgery on my lumbar spine. That day I could walk without numbness. Now I am back to dancing, hiking, and traveling. I will be forever grateful to him. Thank you and God bless you.

I was referred by Dr. Bruno & PA Feba. I was not happy with his decisión but I understand as he made a decision in my best interest. I take this moment to apologize for my attitude on the day of my appointment. Dr. Salkind is very professional and did a thorough evaluation. I fully understand his decision. I trust him enough that I don't feel it is necessary for a second opinion as this is what he specializes in. He is an excellent neurological surgeon. I came to terms with his decision and although I am suffering in pain due to six herniated in ther cervical neck and six bulging disc in my lower lumbar, nerve impingement in my cervical neck and two in my lower lumbar due to a spinal bifida aculta I am not a candidate for surgery. The staff is very wonderful and professional.

I absolutely LOVE Dr. Dallas nd! My daughter was his patient for a time for treatment of a compressed nerve following an auto accident. His bedside manner, his genuine caring and concern for me always came through at each encounter. I am facing spinal surgery but he will leave it up to me to decide when. Very professional and knowledgeable is he, as are his staff. I highly recommend him.

Well it has been six years since I first met Dr. Walking but I truly must say he has left a lasting impression on me. He takes time to explain things to you in a caring and respectful manner. Thank you Dr. Walking I will not forget your time and patience you showed me. William Zuggi

Dr. Salkind made me feel very confident about having the surgery (Laminectomy) that I was very fearful about. He explained the procedure a lot different than two other surgeons. The nurse who interviewed me was excellent and very caring.

Dr. Salkind is amazing! I have had a shunt placed by him and he was astounded me with his professionalism and care for patients. I have lived normally w/o a shunt until things went wrong in my body and Dr. Salkind had visited me twice at the hospital to see how I was doing. His office staff are also very prompt with any needs and have always been very courteous in addressing any questions or concerns. He has saved my life and I am forever grateful!
