Dr. Zuckerman and his staff have provided excellent care for my cervical spine issues! I've never felt rushed by any of the staff, Dr. Zuckerman has always given thorough examinations, takes the time to explain options & details related to my condition. I've dealt with chronic neck pain for close to a decade and he has been the first surgeon willing to address my complex spinal issues.I highly recommend him to anyone who asks about needing neurosurgical treatment!
