Dr. Philip Schneider, MD

I have been a his patient for years and Dr.Scheider has been an excellent doctor. He listens well and adresses concerns. He puts my mind at ease when I talk to him when I tell him about my neck problem.

Dr Phil Schneider has been treating me and my family for over 30 years. Every treatment or procedure has been successful. I wholeheartedly endorse Dr Schneider and Montgomery Orthopaedics

Dr. Schneider treated pain in my right knee and lower back. Excellent diagnosis and treatment plan. Friendly, professional and responsive approach to my concerns and questions. I would highly recommend him for anyone who needs to speak with an Orthopedic Surgeon who specializes in spinal injuries and back/knee pain.

I consulted Dr. Schneider about symptoms related to spinal stenosis. He explained the diagnosis beautifully, described my options, and prescribed medication and physical therapy. He was friendly and unhurried, and efficient at the same time. I greatly appreciated his counsel on the various options available.

Very professional and informative.

Will definitely recommend him. I found him very professional. He explained my treatment plan clearly to my understanding.

Dr Schneider, in my experience, is an excellent physician. He listens carefully, then asks relevant questions to define the issue. He's very forthcoming with info and lays out his recommendations clearly. I find that he respects my concerns and questions, never brushing them off as unimportant. He's very easy to talk with, and consumately professional at the same time. I have no hesitation recommending him for any back problems.

I absolutely would recommend him to anyone needing a orthopedic doctor. He still display that good ole bedside manners as a physician who cares.

This was my 2nd follow-up visit after back surgery. Dr. Schneider came highly recommended to me. I am pleased with his work - I just wish his office was easier to get to. I gave him a 4-star rating because I feel there is room for improvement in everyone - no one is perfect.

In short: He always helpful and satisfying. I have been a patient of Dr. Schneider for a couple of years. He has treated me in the past for lumbar issues and very recently for a cervical issue. He is clearly an extremely competent physician. He explains x-ray results very clearly and provides, what for me have been, effective treatment plans; i.e., appropriate medications and prescriptions for physical therapy. He provides clear guidance and counsel on preventive measures and movements to avoid. In my book, Dr. Schneider is the man to see for issues affecting your spine. I have been treated by other physicians and staff at The Centers for Advanced Orthopedics, Montgomery Orthopedics, Chevy Chase Office for the past 15 years, including surgery. This is an excellent practice, with an awesome culture for patient care.

Dr. Schneider was very personable, thorough, and knowledgeable. He examined my x-rays carefully, listened to me, and diagnosed my issue. He explained what was causing my pain and recommended a conservative approach to treatment that I appreciated.

After being diagnosed with a pinched nerve in my neck and having constant throbbing pain as well as pins and needles in my arm I was referred to Dr. Schneider for consultation. Both my mother and fiance were former patients and talked highly of Dr. Schneiders manner and skills. He took his time explaining in great detail my problems and potential solutions. He was able to answer all my questions and made me feel comfortable and confident in his answers. He came highly recommended and it's easy to see why. I hope with his medical guidance and expert knowledge I will be quickly on my way to complete recovery.

Great Dr I a few years ago a few times I was gonna have him operate on my spine.Saw him last week July 2020. Take time With you.Explains the x-ray and your problems and gave me steroids. The pain went away for a few days. If you don’t exercise that’s your problem Smile. Many doctors are just in and out they turn around and they’re out. You have to tell them your problem very quickly. I Not say things very often that are pleasant. I Recommend him very highly.

He is so clear in his counsel . Very glad I choose him.

Excellent, conservative medical approach. No pressure to operate immediately.

Very thorough right to the point very informative and very professional

Very

Dr. Schneider operated on me November 14, 2016, I woke with no pain and now a year later I am still without pain. I was seen and treated tragically each time making me worse by other "top doctors" in the area. Each one caused me more pain when I thought it couldn't get any worse. Dr. Schneider took one look at the same thing everyone else looked at and saw what I needed and performed a laminectomy.. The best I have met.

Very attentive and showed genuine concern for me every time I visit.

My experience with Dr. Scheider was so demoralizing. He made it so obvious he had little to no interest in helping me. I went in with question regarding a surgery I need, and he kept looking at his watch, acted impatient and responded to my questions like, "What a stupid question" by his arrogant attitude. I don't know why he could not have shown some respect and compassion. I have to pay for this surgery myself and my talking with him was so apparent I was an annoyance and waste of time.
