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. Azordegan was very attentive to my situation and offered transparent feedback and advice. I would recommend him to others, without hesitation

Dr. Azordegan takes the time to listen to his patients, talks to them and explains how and why something can or can’t be done. He was highly recommended to me by another Doctor.

Patient and caring
Came in with a smile, apologized for the wait, and then took time to listen, think, assess, and implement a plan with thorough explanation. He was kind, caring of my health concern, and desired to help find an answer.

Very Pleased With My Visit
We were very pleased with our visit with Dr. Azordegan and his staff. We found everyone to be very efficient and professional.Dr. Azordegan is a very experienced, knowledgeable and personable Neurosurgeon. He spent time listening to all of my concerns related to a herniated disc and I am very interested in getting involved in the program he has proposed for treating several issues related to my back. We were very impressed with Dr. Azordegan and his staff.

One of the best, if not THE best in Jackson
Dr. Azordegan saw me for acute severe low back pain and findings on the MRI that surgery was indicated. He did the surgery and I have had an excellent result. Some arthritic pain that is transient and improves when I am more active. But there is no pain from the ruptured disc after surgery. He also operated on my husband some years ago. He is personable and takes the time to explain what is wrong and how to fix it. I have recommended him to a number of people and would feel very good about him treating any of my family members.

Informative and friendly.
In the nicest way, I was told I was a fat slob, and that my back issues could not be helped anywhere in the state of MS. A procedure was named that could help, but there were only vague references as to who and where. While grateful for the candor, and information share, I am no better off from my visit. At least I got some honesty.

I had been in three different hospitals with three groups of doctors trying to figure out what was wrong with my lower back. Phillip is a friend and client of mine so I called him. He saw me the next morning. He asked questions and asked me to lean forward so he could tap me on my back. I went ballistic when he did. He set up an MRI for me the next day and called me with the results which backed his prognosis up. He got me an appt. with a good doctor who could help me get well and I did. He spent 15 minutes with me a solved my problem. He’s a genius and a wonderful physician!

Dr Azordegan messed my daughter up. Gave us incorrect information about what she needed which caused her to have three operations. Don’t go to him if you’ve had a car accident. He doesn’t mind operating on you but then wants to have nothing to do with depositions etc. to help her in court. Would not recommend him for any spine surgery.

I have been a patient of Dr. Azordegan since 2004. I have ongoing spinal issues. I would never consider going to a different neurosurgeon. He is thorough and kind. He gives you all options so you can make an informed decision. Sometimes there is no solution that eliminates pain. He is very patient and never pushes surgery even when it’s the only option. He is truly a professional and I am blessed to be his patient.

Great caring surgeon who gives you the facts and your options without pressuring you to have surgery. I decided to have surgery for Carpal tunnel on my hand with great results .Dr Azordegan and his nurse Clemmie are wonderful and caring professionals who I would strongly recommend.
