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.

Great surgeon!!!
My experience with Dr. Kalman was very very good. He first put me in the care of Dr. Dalton, to see if there was a way to help me without surgery. After exhausting that Dr.Kalman decided thatI needed to have a fusion done on my lower back and that was in 2005, and 20 years later my back is still pain-free and no loss of motion. I am 74 years old and I’ve never felt better. Thank you Dr. Kalman.

Amazing!!
Dr. Blumberg was genuinely concerned and friendly while maintaining a professional standard of service. I was so very thankful for the excellent care I received from Dr. Blumberg. He reviewed my MRI and gave his expert medical opinion and directing me on what I needed to do to receive the best medical treatment for my back! Which did not include surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Blumberg and value his medical opinion!!

From my first visit to my current visit, and Surgery Dr. Blumberg and his Assistant Tony, every detail has been conducted in a very, very efficient and effective manner. Professionalism comes naturally as the care for you. Those who are lucky enough to have DR Blumberg use his knowledge and skills are so very lucky.

Dr Blumberg demonstrates an appropriate level of confidence consistent with his superior skill and made me feel that he was going to make sure that my herniated disc was perfectly treated and that he was going to heal me. I knew he was the one and there could be no other! --when my disc became excruciatingly painful--he did just that...cured me. If you need spinal care-especially surgery,,,trust no other than Dr Blumberg!

He fractured my spine during surgery- had to revise planned surgery. Rods were to be only mid thoracic spine, now rods are from T3 to L5/S1. he put screws in sacrum to stabilize. He had me on a tread mill shortly after surgery. Never braced me to let the screws set in and heal. screws in sacrum have a hole Halo Effect around them. The pain in my back worse then ever. Needed 2 additional surgeries to repair. Helped but became disabled-extremely difficult to live, raise 3 boys myself.TY

Outstanding surgeon and medical practitioner. I had succesful surgeries with him and on one occasion, he came out to the emergency room on a weekend to evaluate me and the urgency for surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Blumberg as well as the entire staff at the Florida Spine Specialists.
