Dr. Joseffer was great . Ive been to many Drs in the past year . All they wanted to do was injections . Dr Joseffer sent me in the right direction and told me injections would not help . I would highly recommend him .

I would have to agree with the other reviewers here that there should be a negative rating put into the reviews option. Princeton Brain & Spine does fully deserve a negative 5-star review. Now, I am not reviewing here the surgical skills of the several doctors belonging to this practice. That should only be done via proved and accurate documentation of the success rate of the surgeries they performed in, say, 5 years period. However, the way this office operates and Dr. Shah's patient etiquette and bedside manners are horrible, impolite, unpleasant, and outrageously condescending. I had a "pleasure" to be seen by Dr. Shah about 2 years ago. He was the only physician in this practice who wouldn't see patients at the time of their respective appointments but make them wait in their cars in the parking lot until they got a phone call. One would say, "Covid-19 measures" but somehow he was the only one who would adhere to it, no other doctor in this practice would. Both times I had to sit in the car for over 1-plus hours waiting for a phone call. Sitting in the car for over 1-plus hrs after the time of my appointment! After receiving the phone call, I would go up to the office and wait yet another hour, only to be granted 45 seconds of Dr. Shah's tzar-like attention. He never read the radiology report before me walking into his room. Never bothered to check it. He read the report in my presence and completely brushed me off offering minimum to zero explanation. He visibly was in a hurry to leave the office and never made as much as a small effort to conceal it. If you have any other alternative than Princeton Brain and Spine, please try your best to avoid this medical practice.

Dr Lipani is an outstanding surgeon. His care, compassion and knowledge, by far, is one of the reasons he has been Top Doc rated but their are many more. He has empathy and understanding and values your time. You are not left waiting in the waiting room for your appointment to see him for hours, they are very punctual. Their is no rushing you out of his office when you have an appointment with him, answers all your questions, explains things professionally and accurately in a way you can understand, and if available, will even speak with you on the phone. After going to the emergency room at Raritan Bay Medical Center in Old Bridge, 2016 (after crawling out of bed) with excruciating pain after a fall, I was given pain meds, sent home and was told to go see my own medical doctor. After several days of pain at home and waiting to see my own MD I couldnt bare it and did my research on Neurosurgeons, came upon Dr. Lipani, and am glad that I did. Called his office for an appointment which I was able to get within a couple of days. Unfortunately, that next morning I woke up with no feeling in my left arm, called his office, got the answering service and received a call back from Dr. Lipani within minutes. Was rushed to Princeton Hospital and had immediate surgery. I remember the pain being so bad I was crying going into surgery. Woke up from surgery being able to feel my arm again. Since then he has done 3 other neck surgeries/fusions (due to other unfortunate things happening to me). The most recent was November 2022. He has an outstanding nurse Kathy, that also cares for you as a person. She will keep you updated, get back to you quickly and fight for you with the insurance company, she knows the lawsins and outs of insurance. We all know that now a days insurance companies can be a nightmare. If you are looking for an experienced, up-to-date, kind, caring doctor with a great bedside manner Dr. Lipani is the one to reach out to. You just dont find doctors like him anymore, hes a rare gem.
