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.Glazer is absolutely a skilled and talented surgeon! However had I known the attitude and complete disregard by several staff members ... (such as being told a message would not be given to Dr.Glazer). Among other issues/ concerns I would have found another surgeon.

I have been a patient of Dr. Glazer since 2003. He has done multiple fusions and surgeries on my spine with excellent structural work.He is the best, compassionate, cautious about surgery procedures if needed, responsive, consultative and just a good kind Dr. I consider him family and am a lifelong patient of him due to my condition.

He did my neck and my back surgeries and gave me my mobility back. That was seventeen years ago and at 60 I still lead an active live style.

I recently had a discectomy with fusion on 2 discs in my lumbar spine. I came to Dr. Glazer after having seen 2 physiatrists, a neurosurgeon, and pain specialist in NH. A neurosurgeon at MGH reviewed my case and they all said I was not a surgical candidate. I self referred to Dr. Glazer in May after he was recommended to me by a friend. He ordered a discogram done by one of his colleagues, which was positive and this specialized test indicated I needed a surgical intervention. Dr. Glazer is the ultimate professional, he is highly skilled and does ongoing research to find the best surgical techniques for his patients. He is intelligent, compassionate, caring and a good listener. He is one of the best and brightest doctors, I have ever come in contact with, both personally and professionally. I work as a Nurse Practitioner and I will be referring patients to him in the future. I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Glazer. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs spinal surgery.

Dr. Glazer operated on me to correct my scoliosis in November of 2016. He did 3 operations over 3 days. These surgeries were life-saving for me. The hip pain I had made it difficult to walk prior to the surgeries. Now I'm working full-time and doing well. Dr. Glazer did the surgeries that other surgeons told me couldn't be done. I'm so grateful to him.

He made the difference – Mar 07, 2019
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Glazer?
Dr. Glazer saved my life! He gave me feeling in my feet that I haven’t had in over 6 years. I’ve been suffering for 22 years and I’m only 37. I almost ran away and backed out several times only because I was so afraid. I had a spinal fusion and I’m SO glad I did it and even more happy I chose him as my surgeon. His entire team was beyond amazing! Best decision ever!
