Patient Reviews
Feb 20, 2025
Horrible experience going into surgery with this doctor who refused to answer the questions our nurse said to ask. He advised she could come do the surgery then. The patient was in tears going into the surgery suite. The nurses were very nervous about him and apologized once he left assuring us he was a great surgeon. No one should be made to feel this bad while being wheeled into surgery by a doctor who doesn't care.

Dr Politz is an amazing surgeon/individual. He cares about his patients and makes sure they understand the process. In addition to being thoughtful and caring, his utmost professionalism tops! My spine surgery would not have been possible without him. Both Dr Politz and Dr Patel worked miracles. My surgery is 100% successful. I am thrilled to have Dr Politz on my team! TY Dr Politz for what you do!!! My quality of life is much improved. Blessings
