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.

Feel he is the best. Always recommend him.
He never made us feel rushed or that we were imposing on his time. He answered my questions, thoroughly explained the process, put us at ease. Always included my wife and her questions and feelings. He was more than a skilled professional. He was kind, compassionate, and always respectful with us in his interactions. That's what's important when dealing with a life changing surgery.

Great job on repairing a Critical Condition.
I was admitted through the ER to the Neurosurgical Unit, with a Critical Spinal issue. Dr. Kureshi, his Team, and Hartford Hospital provided timely surgery, corrected the problem, and I am walking again.

Highly Successful L3, L4, and L5 Laminectomy!!
Dr. Kureshi is the most caring and clinically competent physician I’ve ever experienced. He’s highly knowledgeable, confident, comprehensive and his patient focus was incredible. Highly recommend to anyone seeking relief of extreme and chronic nerve pain emanating from disk compression on the spinal canal.

Dr Kureshi and team performed a level 2 cervical disc fusion on 12/12/19. My experience was no less than wonderful. Dr. Kureshi and his staff have great bedside manner and explained everything before and after the procedure so that I understood it. recovery was very quick with minimal discomfort. All of the staff that I encountered were very friendly and knowledgeable. Special thanks to the Physicians assistants Andrew Decusati and Selena Machia who both made me feel comfortable. They answered all of my questions and some that I did not ask.

Dr. Kureshi preformed a spinal fusion on me after a motorcycle accident. While he did help me fix myself after the accident, what followed is why I only give him 1 star. In the months following the surgery in which hardware was placed into my spine, I started to feel pain. He ignored second opinions that it was the hardware malfunctioning and maintained I was fine. Two years later I had the hardware removed after numerous visits to Dr. Kureshi with no help. It was in fact the hardware. Arrogant.
