What follows is my opinion about this practice — assess it for yourself. The practice, to me, seems best summed up as “arrogance without empathy.” I do not doubt that if you are a celebrity or a famous athlete you’ll get time, empathy, and fine care here (they are skilled surgeons), otherwise it seems you’re on an accelerated conveyor belt in a cold and indifferent process to quickly determine if you are a viable object they can use to put “points” on the board for the DISC team. That is, it doesn’t seem to me to be a patient-centric practice, but rather a doctor-centric practice: apparently it’s too hard to escape the orbit of ego so as to have a decent bedside manner and treat common people with care like humans who are suffering, even if that doesn’t come with an autographed picture of the rich or famous. It seems they’re first trophy seekers (fame and fortune), then businessmen (not a bad thing), and then healers. I always thought doctors viewed themselves first and foremost as healers and that that altruism is why they first decided to become doctors. Hippocrates blushes in shame at the medical profession.

Back surgery isn’t fun. But I needed to have a spinal fusion. The first time I met with Dr. Field we discussed my options, he listened to me, answered questions and we decided that surgery was the best option. From that first meeting through my recovery I was extremely impressed with the level of care, the caring of Dr. Field and his entire staff. I highly recommend Dr. Field. I would give him 10 stars. He totally put me at ease to face a difficult surgery.

Staff was friendly & respectful. Found that C Yeung was very knowledgeable in that he not only ordered an MRI for me but also X-rays of my back in different bending positions. Whereas the first opinion doctor gave his opinion based on the MRI only. His ‘fix’ would not have eliminated my pain, clearly determined by a lay person-Me! I am now pain free & healing well. So thankful!

This was my second time this year to see Dr Yeung, my daughter took me it was her first time meeting him. He was very rude and my daughter did not like him made a very bad first impression she would probably never see him if she had to. Said, That he spoke to me very disrespectful. My first two visits with him were really good he was friendly happy and very knowledgeable. I think he must of been having a bad day. Praying my surgery goes good! His staff was very nice!

As much as I really liked Dr. Justin Field ....... I really had a poor experience with this practice. Communication lacks on almost every level. There was initially an issue with my insurance not covering this facility. I was referred directly to Dr. Field from my Chiropractors office and so I pressed my insurance company for an exception to cover this appointment and subsequent procedure.... and was granted an "Out of Network" exception. Scheduled my appointment and when I showed up I was told that my insurance was denied. I was in EXCRUCIATING pain and just agreed to pay out of pocket ( the only way they would see me ) and deal with United Healthcare myself. I found out later that my insurance did not deny the appt.......... but rather DISC cancelled the referral negating my ability to get reimbursed. The way I now understand it...... the exception paid amount would have been lower than the $325 they charged me in person so they basically screwed me by cancelling my referral and required me pay cash out of pocket. Additionally,.... weeks were wasted with me waiting for some communication from DISC as to whether or not we were going to move forward with the surgery. NO REGARD for the patient who was suffering. I have little doubt that Dr. Field is a competent surgeon and could've provided a great solution to my problem but I can't recommend this practice after the way I was treated. DISC seems like money is the only thing they are concerned with. I do understand business but a softer less overt handling of me would have gone a LONG way in my opinion of the facility.

Dr. Abrams is always going to be my hero. He's so personable and treats my husband and I like we've been friends forever. He's also very professional in what he does for his patients. The office staff are also very caring. I was in the waiting room watching how they interact with their patients and they go out of their way to help them get their form (pain level and location) filled out. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because they don't accept Blue Cross Blue Shield so my out of pocket was $227. Why don't I find another doctor in my network? Because there isn't another doctor in this state with the experience and expertise as Dr. Abrams. Plus, I trust him with my life because he already performed emergency spine surgery on my back with the most amazing results that gave me my life back.

My wife needed help for severe back pain. Dr. Solari saw her, explained the problem as determined by MRI and scheduled her for surgery. Taylor was wonderful about getting her in for surgery ASAP and Dr. Solari and his PA's were great. Kathleen was able to walk upright and with only some soreness, within days. We can't say enough good things about this team. I would recommend them to anyone experiencing back pain. Thank you!

Very attentive to any and all . One of the nicest Doctors and my back surgery was so painless. All people working there are also great. Edward Lewis Return visit on 10/29/2019, still no pain , every thing good. Ed Lewis Follow up on12-25-2020, explained X-ray, all good, return in6 months. I still can’t play golf until then. Everything is doing good! Ed Lewis

I had a lumbar artificial disc replacement with Dr. Justin Field two weeks ago. From day one, Dr. Field was the only doctor who was able to offer me a solution to my chronic pain that accounted for all of the issues and treatment I already had, as well as my own goals. He’s been nothing but compassionate, supportive, and helpful every step of the way. When it came time to have the surgery, I felt very prepared and confident because of the guidance from Dr. Field, his staff, and the hospital he works with. On the day of surgery, he spent time going over everything again in pre-op and again helped me to feel good about going into my first major surgery. After surgery, Dr. Field thoroughly explained that he needed to do some extra work to correct the issues in my spine. I felt reassured that he had great attention to detail, a desire to adhere to a standard of perfection, and did the best possible job he could to create the most optimal outcome for me. I just had my post-op visit with him this week, and the x-ray looked great and I am healing and improving very well and as expected without complications. Not only is Dr. Field incredibly excellent at what he does, but his entire office from scheduling to billing is caring, exact, and most helpful. Having spine surgery is a very big decision, and one that can be quite scary. I’m glad I trusted Dr. Field and the team at DISC—I finally have a chance at living a pain-free life!

The entire experience from scheduling an appointment to walking out the door was fantastic. You really get the sense this is a world class practice. Dr. Field made me feel welcomed and did not rush through the visit. He, and his PA, answered all my questions and ensured I understood the prognosis and all possible directions of care moving forward. I'm very happy we came across DISC.

Dr. Field and his team are best in class! The atmosphere is very uplifting, great humor, great attitudes and with all this great things they never forget that you the patient are number one! They make you feel comfortable from the time you arrive until the time they will you out to you Ride. What a great bunch of people. May God continue to bless each and everyone of the team at disc, Farmer

Overall DISC and the staff are great. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. Dr. Abrams is extremely knowledgeable and communicates well. Office location can be convenient when they are in the area. Only issue for me was, and as it is with many doctor visits, my appointment was for 10:30 and I wasn't seen until almost an hour later.

Everyone my husband and I came in contact with at DISC, from front desk, to xray tech, to Dr. Joshua Abrams, was perfection. Warm, professional, so knowledgeable, kind, and above and beyond our expectations!! We had gone to two other surgeons previously, where we did not feel comfortable or confident, but when we met Dr. Abrams, we both knew we had finally found who would perform my surgery. Though, I have not yet had my surgery, the confidence I feel in Dr. Abrams' expertise, is all I need to feel and know going into it! So grateful we have found the right surgeon for us!

I have had the best experience with this facility! Stephanie Ybanez Deserves a medal for the amount of work she put into my preauthorization through workers Comp. It was out of state and there were a ton of hurdles. Dr Abrams and I had met at his previous place of employment . He has always cared about my well being and I always felt I was in good hands. He is a life saver. the entire staff was no different. If I could remember all of their names I would list them as well. 8 weeks after surgery I was feeling well enough to return to work. A few months later I don’t feel as though I had surgery at all. I had 2 other local surgeons say that they wouldn’t even touch my neck. This was the third time in 10 years I have been opened up. Needless to say. It was a can of worms. All previous operations took a minimum of 9 months to even attempt a return to work. I would, and have recommended anyone who needs spinal surgery. .

If you have a herniated Disc FIX IT !!! Dr Wang is amazing. I am 100% pain free same day after surgery. Thank you Dr wang and the staff at The Core Institute super great experience.

I saw a few surgeons for second and third opinions. I landed with Dr. Justin Field because of his expertise in non-fusion stabilization. He's honest, friendly, and I think truly cares for his patients. My recovery was better than I expected and I can most definitely attribute that to Dr. Field and his amazing team for keeping me comfortable and educating me every step of the way. I’m incredibly grateful for Dr. Field!

Dr Salari is a knowledgeable and talented surgeon. He is very caring, and puts his patients at ease. I have all the confidence in the world in him. He has successfully operated on my husband and me with total success. His staff is always extremely helpful and caring as well. Highly recommend.

Dr. Fields and his PA were thorough and explained everything in a way that I could understand. I was impressed by their bedside manner and patience with all of my questions after learning that I will need a fusion to fix my back issue. I have 100% confidence in this team and look forward to continuing with them as my Orthopedic Spine specialists.

DISC is a remarkable practice. From the staff who answers the phone, to the medical assistants and surgeons, everyone conducts themselves in a friendly and professional manner. This office has gone the extra mile in assuring the patient's experience is top notch. The surgeons are highly skilled and have excellent bedside manner as well. I highly recommend this office for anyone in need of a back surgeon who performs minimally invasive spine surgery.

Dr. Abrams at The DISC institute is always so good at addressing all my needs. He listens well, follows up and shows complete compassion when dealing with his patients. He has a great bedside manner and you can truely tell he cares about how his patients are doing!!!! Dr. Abrams and his staff always goes above and beyond. My personal experience with The Disc Institute has always been pleasant. I highly recommend The Disc Institute of your Healthcare needs!!!

Dr. Abrams is a great diagnostician. I was blessed in 2011when my doctor referred me to him at the Core Institute for low spine issues. I suffered severe back pain from a car accident in 1996 with most surgeons unwilling to attempt surgery. But Dr. Abrams did. He has kept me on two feet, not succumbed to a wheelchair like previous doctor's suggested. I will forever be grateful for his care. He is kind, personable, conservative in treatment, and thorough. He is truly the best in town. Congratulations, Doc Abrams, for joining DISC. Looks like you have a great thing going on.... efficient office people and your team with your assistant and PA is pleasant and knowledgeable, just like you.

I just went for an opinion today and, fortunately and unfortunately, I am not a candidate yet for surgery but Dr. Yeung is absolutely amazing, sweet, kind, honest, smart!!!!! He was thorough even though my case is pretty simple, cut and dry. I came out of this office reassured, knowing that when I will need surgery I’ll have a great doc!

My spine surgery went extremely well. Dr Field and the lady doctor who assisted him are wonderful. All of my pre surgery pain is gone and I haven’t had any post surgery pain. I have healed very well and was able to ease into my normal activities 6 weeks after surgery without needing physical therapy. The only negative thing I have to say is that when I saw Dr Field for my 6 week follow up in mid July 2021 no one in the facility, including Dr. Field wore masks. My husband and I were the only ones wearing them. That surprised us because every other medical facility we have visited still requires them.

Very knowledgeable, courteous, professional medical staff. I was a patient here ten years ago and returned to have Dr C. Yeung diagnose my latest spinal issue. He once again provided me with a treatment plan and an understanding of the problem being experienced. I do recommend DISC to friends and family.

Saw Dr. Fields after he had treated my wife. Fixed her fantastically twice, me just time.

This is one of the best Facilities we have been to, including Dr Field and all their staff. They listen, care, and respond quickly. When you call for an apt you one quickly and you never have long waits in the waiting room. Everyone is efficient and kind

DISC staff are very professional, caring, and polite. I found this office by reading the Google reviews and they truly do live up to all the high praises. When I called and explained my situation/pain, they got me in quickly. They take x-rays right away so the doctor knows what they are working with. Dr. Wang is fabulous! He explains everything he is thinking should be done and will not do anything beyond that. I had lower back surgery and recovery has been pretty straight forward. I have had a few times where I called the office regarding concerns and they returned my call the same day to help. The Phoenix office is easy to get to and very well laid out. I highly recommend DISC.

Excellent physician. Very knowledgeable and compassionate. Would highly recommend to anyone with back pain. The office personnel were helpful and the entire process from initial visit though post op was very thorough and well organized.

You made it as easy as it could be. The CORE facility is great. It was a completely different experience than going to a large hospital, very personal and caring. And I feel much better already. Thanks.

Just had surgery 2 weeks ago and already feeling massive improvement. This was probably the easiest process for relief from the pain I had. The initial consult and agreement on what was needed was done via telemedicine link, the date for surgery was set for a month out. No 6 month wait like I was experiencing in my home state. Disc folks checked my insurance and got approval to move ahead. I was kept informed of everything. I was given my choice of hospitals in Phx and chose Honor Health Sonoran Crossings. This was the best Hospital I have ever experienced. Dr. Wang spent an hour with my wife after surgery explaining what was done and how I should manage my recovery. She was extremely pleased with his attention to detail. I was up and walking the same day and all bodily functions working by the next. I was able to leave the hospital the next day. So far this has been a exceptionally great experience for surgery and while I understand the fear of surgery on your spine, I am so glad I trusted the DISC folks and Dr Wang to help relieve the constant pain I was in.

Very impressed with Dr. Abram’s and his PA Karla. They were very thorough in going over my MRI and explaining each concern. Both were pleasant and gave me all the time we needed to get to a conclusion about my spine issues. Will definitely continue being a patient with Dr. Abram’s.

One of my best friends shared with me the great result he got with Dr. Abrams, so I made an appointment to check him out. I took an MRI with me from a previous consult with a different specialist, who declined to operate because of my age (78) and condition. My pain level was pretty much a 7/8 at this point and I needed a cane to get around. Steroid shots were no longer helping. Dr. Abrams throughly explained his minimally invasive recommendation that involved removing a large cyst at the base of my spine and fusing one of my vertebrae on the lower right side. I’m now beginning my 5th week of recovery and I’m doing great! Much of the time I’m pain free and walking around my home without my cane. When I go out I wear the brace I was given and use my cane to be safe, and I may develop some pain (2/3) after exercising, which Tylenol or Advil takes care of. I’m amazed! I highly recommend my surgeon, Dr. Joshua Abrams and his great team. 🤗☝️🇺🇸

I absolutely LOVED Dr Wang! He was so understanding and wasn't jumping on the surgery train with me. He explained everything in depth re: the cervical spine surgery, but that even though the spine is damaged, he believes that I should see a shoulder surgeon first to discuss fixing that to see if the shoulder muscle pain responds. If so, and the neck pain is tolerable, the spine surgery could be postponed. I know this may sound counter intuitive to some, but I love that Dr Wang was honest with me. And for this old lady with some residual MD PTSD, he was a dream come true! Thank you, Dr Wang!

Championship team to say the least. Dr Yueng- Very professional and answered all the questions I had pre and post surgery. DISC- The entire staff was excellent and informative. Chad answered a lot of questions before Dr. Yueng even got into see me at the initial consult. Super friendly staff all around. Core- This facility is great. The staff there is great. Everyone was super kind and explained everything in great detail. Everything that was scheduled was on time, including the length of the surgery. The nursing staff was constantly in my room checking on me and ensuring I was comfortable with the pain level. The food was really good. My family- My wife and son came with me to the facility and never had to ask twice about me. The nurses answered all my wife's questions and Dr. Yueng took time from his lunch to answer her questions as well. I would recommend DISC and Core to anyone. Thank you- David Parrish

When I first went on line to check out Desert Spine to consider which doctor I should choose, it was with one doctor in mind within the practice who was recommended by my chiropractor who was a former patient at Desert Spine. But after reviewing all the doctors I ended up choosing Dr. Nima Salari. I couldn't have chosen a better spine surgeon. His bedside manner is very calm and reassuring, easy going, polite, as well as a fun side to his personality. I am very pleased with the professional care I have received from Dr. Salari and I would highly recommend him. He is the perfect spine doc for me. 🖐🏼 Dr. Salari's P. A., Chris, is the best assistant doc, always quick to call me whenever I've been concerned with my post-op progress, as well as in office care, very professional, yet an easy going manner as well. I would be remiss if I didn't mention Dr. Salari's office assistant, Lindsey. She's always the first person me and my husband see when we begin each office visit. Lindsey's personality is fun and put you at ease right away, and very professional, and helpful when I had to make calls, pre-op and post-op, with any and all questions, and you feel like you've known her for awhile personally because she's so down to earth and reassuring, while very professional and proficient in our interactions with her. And last, but not least, every other office staff member we've encountered, be it the front desk reception check-in professionals, or surgery schedulers, and Xray techs, all have been so nice in all my [our] encounters. Overall, I would highly recommend Dr. Salari and his team at, DISC — Desert Institute Spinal Care for anyone in need of top notch, minimally invasive spine care treatments, and Desert Spine in general.

Dr. Abrams is the best! I trust him completely with any surgery or procedure I’ve had. I’ve had two surgeries with him and my husband has had one. Both of us had 100% recoveries! He’s informative, honest and always takes the time to explain the procedure and answers every question. He is also the kindest doctor I’ve ever had. Trust me…. Dr. Abrams is the best!

Dr. Field came in and introduced himself and started to review my imaging. He was very pleasant to talk with. He asked some questions and listened attentively, clarified some of my answers and was very interactive, going into detail what he saw on the imaging. We started to make a strategy and was very easy to understand. I felt very comfortable we had made the right decision together. Dr. Field is a very competent orthopedic surgeon and I felt quite comfortable with him.

Dr. Nima Salari performed a Laminectomy on me in late April this year. I had extreme lower back pain on top of a fractured vertebrae. I was basically a cripple as I could not walk for very long without being almost Completely bent over from the pain. The day after surgery except for some surgical aching I was pain-free. Dr. Salari receives my highest recommendation. As I have told him, he gave me my life back!

Dr. Nima Salari was very thorough and took time to explain everything to me. He even showed me the issue on my MRI. I’m thankful that I found him and feel confident that he’ll do a great job on my surgery.

After extensive research I chose Mark Wang at Desert Institute For Spinal Care. I had a cyst in L4L5 that was pushing on sciatica nerve to the point I couldn’t stand up and walk very little. It had improved over time to where I could walk for short distance and stand up straight most of the time. The pain never goes away. I went into surgery at 7:30 out at 9:30 took 2 hour nap woke up with 0 pain and was driven home. I have had no pain since and 3 weeks later playing golf again. Happiest as can possibly be with results. There isn’t enough stars to Give Dr Wang and his Staff. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! JERRY CAIN

I am VERY disappointed in the lack of post-op care my father has received. He had surgery less than a week ago and the lack of communication + medication follow-up has been a true nightmare.

I was in severe pain, had a disc out of place. DR Yeung did my surgery and I feel like a whole new person. The best!!!!

I just had a microdiscectomy two days ago from Dr. Joshua Abrams at the beautiful DISC surgery center in Phoenix. After 6 long months of pain and ineffective treatment from a pain clinic I am so relieved to have had this minimally invasive procedure. Though there is some discomfort at the surgical site, the pain in my low back/butt is gone!!! This staff could not be any more professional and efficient and I can't say enough about Dr. Abrams and his expertise and communication!

I sincerely appreciate Dr. Salari's skills and techniques at DISC Orthopedic office. The whole team is caring and personal. Thank you for caring. Joyce McWhorter

Dr fields is fantastic. He was persistent in resolving my terrible back problems. His assistants were great and the office personnel were wonderful.Disc is a1.Thank you all..

Everyone at the practice is incredibly professional and responsive to patient requests and concerns. Dr. Salari is a skilled surgeon and was able to expertly manage and treat my father's severe and debilitating neck pain when other providers' efforts fell short.

I was in extreme pain when I walked or tried to do any task where I had to bend over At night I had burning and tingling in my legs to the point that sleep was almost impossible. Shots in my back didn’t work and I had to increasingly up my pain meds. I was referred to Dr Field for surgery. After the surgery I was pain free. Dr Field discovered a cyst pressing on my spine that wasn’t seen on the MRI. I’m totally pain free and can’t thank Dr Field and his staff enough. Ted M

Dr. Salari and his staff are awesome. I have been in a workmans comp nightmare. They have done some amazing things to rehabilitate my injury. Dr. Salari, personally called me after surgery to see how I was feeling. That is the kind of service you hope to receive all the time. Outstanding team.

Dr Justin Fields is a Back surgeon that Has done some terrific work on my back 8 years ago , it was laser surgery and it lasted over 2 1/2 years , but unfortunately things don't get better they get worse with age & time and now in the process of getting a back fusion surgery in the Next 6 weeks. let me tell you it's a bit overwhelming to hear that you need back fusion surgery that consists of 4 screws 2 rods and a cage, but Dr Justin Fields made me feel at ease that due to my condition Degenerative disc disease, I now need this upcoming surgery, and honestly I wouldn't let anyone else do my back fusion Surgery..

Dr. Justin Field and his assistant Andy are by far some of the most amazing Spine Surgeon there are! I had and have the most amazing care from them throughout my whole case from the day of consultation to surgery and aftercare. They paid attention to every detail of every step the whole way through. I was not an easy case and had many complications (None of them their fault) But they were there throughout every asspect giving the best care possiable. I highly recommend DICS and their team of Dr.s for any spine issues you my have, You won't regret going with these guys. Thank you Dr Field and Andy for all the help you've given I dont kniw where I would of been without you guys.

At DISC all the Dr's are great! DR. Nima Solari and his team preformed cervical disection last April , my results have been excellent . I rate the whole surgical team a great big 5 . I received excellent care from Dr Solari and the team. I recommend DISC for anyone with cervical issues they are the best. Thank You Ardis Bain

Was a great experience from my consult to my surgery, which I needed by the way. Dr. Fields' staff is very knowledgable and friendly. Dr Fields' knowledge was exceptional. He listened and then made me feel comfortable with his decision to have surgery. My surgery was quick and The Core Institute was a pleasant, clean facility. I am cured as I NO LONGER have tingling running down my arm. Thank you for taking great care of my situation.

Don’t ask to change doctors or office cause they don’t let you and it’s so far for me to go to and in so much pain hard to travel that far

Dr. Abrams is fantastic! I was referred to DISC by a pain management doctor. Was having problems with L3, L4, and L5. In 2015 L4, L5 was fused and Colflex Spring installed between L3-L4, all done by another surgeon here in Phoenix. Dr. Abrams had to do corrective surgery to, basically, correct the work previously done. That was in February 2019. In December of 2019 and January 2020 I was able to return to running and ran 2 races, finishing in the top 30% of each. Not bad considering I am 69. I would never consider going anywhere else for back issues and wish I had gone there in 2015! Friendly and knowledgeable staff, minimal wait times, and great scheduler.

I was fortunate enough to have Dr. Joshua Abrams as my surgeon. He fused L4/L5 in such a way that I was walking the next morning. I am 13 days out of surgery with no pain and no problems. Thanks to your entire staff for making this encounter with surgery come out so very well. I would recommend Dr. Abrams any time to anyone!

Dr. Abrams is amazing. I took my diabetic 84 year old dad to him after seeing his local doctor treat him with a slew of pain meds. So much meds that my dad fell down from the effects and had to be taken to the hospital in an ambulance. We dealt with this for 3 months and honestly thought he was going to die from the pain in his leg. After talking with another doctor who strongly recommended seeing a back doctor, we found out that his problem was not from his leg but his L4 and L5 disc in his back. We drove to Phoenix and met with Dr. Abrams and within 30 days had out patient surgery and drove three hours home with my dad the next day. The miracle was that my dad went into the hospital the day of the surgery using a walker and came out not needing it. Two weeks after his procedure, he's walking his dog and enjoying a pain free life with no pain meds. Please be an advocate for your older parents. I'm glad I was and I'm very thankful for the talented Dr. Abrams.

Quick and easy check in - had a morning appointment and got into the exam room in less than 10 minutes- Nurse was great and personable- less than 5 minutes and I met with Dr Field- friendly professional and kind- gave me options- listened to me and no pressure on surgery- I am opting for waiting now but if I decide to get surgery I will return to this office and dr field

This is the best place to go!! I wouldn't take my mom anywhere else, Dr. Abrams was amazing and really made her feel at peace and like a human being. At DISC, you're not just another patient, you're a person who matters. All the surgeons there are amazing at what they do and I have nothing but confidence in them.

Dr Salari fixed my back 5 years ago. L2-3 on my left side was brutal. He did a great job with the surgery, I was back to work in 6 weeks. No problems since. Not only is he a superb Dr. he's a good guy also. Would highly recommend.

Had lower back surgery and the attention to care was just wonderful! Everyone seems to love their work and it shows! Thank you Dr Field for your ability and knowledge! You gave me the confidence to have this procedure done! God Bless Norris (Ned) Leigh

I was referred to DISC by my pain management clinic for chronic lower back pain that was causing extreme sciatic pain. I had tried everything to get relief except for surgery at that point. I have never had any type of surgery or even an IV before so I was extremely scared and hesitant of even the thought of needing surgery. From the moment I met Dr. Field, he made me feel at ease and I knew I was in the right hands. The day of surgery, as expected, I was extremely nervous and in a lot of pain. Dr. Field and the entire staff at the SurgeCenter was so kind, helpful, patient, professional, organized and understanding. They made sure I was comfortable and that I knew what was going on every step of the way. Everything about this experience and this team of people was beyond my best expectations. They made something that I expected to be such a horrible situation such an easy and positive experience. Even my sister in law who was my ride and waiting for me in the waiting room had a great experience with them. Dr. Field came out and gave her a full in detail run down of how I was doing and Gus at the check-in helped her find some snacks while she was hungry and waiting. I am now 3 weeks post op, healed up and have ZERO pain. I am so impressed with this facility and thankful that I was referred to DISC. Thank you so much for taking me out of pain and giving me my life back Dr. Field and team! I am forever grateful for you!

Dr. Justin field at the disc Institute for spine care did an excellent job on my C6 C7 Fusion. I would recommend Dr Fields for anyone with spine issues. Good people. Caring and understanding. Mark Martinez

DISC and Dr. Justin Field was recommended by a coworker who had similar neck issues. Everything went smoothly from making an appointment to the friendly front desk personnel and X-ray tech. The PA Jennifer was easy to talk to and efficient. I really can’t say enough good things about Dr. Field. He’s the kind of doctor that makes you feel at ease immediately. He encouraged questions and answered them all without making me feel stupid for asking. I felt confident I understood my condition and his plan of treatment. If you’ve been to a many doctors you know how rare it is to find a doctor like him. He’s warm and friendly and you get the feeling that he honestly cares. I will recommend DISC and Dr. Fields to friends and coworkers. Class act!

Dr. Christopher Yeung performed back surgery on my L5- S1 vertebrae through a MIS fusion procedure. The surgery was successful. Dr. Yeung is an expert in his field plus he is a kind & compassionate Surgeon. His staff & assistants are wonderful as well. Thank you Dr. Christopher Yeung. May God Bless You ! - Arumugam Satyanarayan

Great staff, Doctors and availability. Takes time to explain situation and options. Highly recommend.

I had lower limb resulting from sciatica for several years. I was using "pain management" with intermittent improvement. One visit with Dr Abrahams convinced me minimal invasive surgery may resolve the issue. Post surgery no leg pain. Three weeks out biggest problem is slowing down to heal.

So far so good. DIFSC responded to my initial web contact immediately and set an appointment two days later. I spent little time in waiting room. I had MRI with me showing major disc herniation. Met Dr. Salari on Tuesday and he performed micro surgery Thursday. I was in great pain and couldn't walk, sit, or stand up without great difficulty. After surgery I was pain free and totally mobile. That was 5 days ago and so far I have been pain free, and have taken zero pain pills. I have been taking daily walks and working at my retail store. Looking forward to complete recovery. Prior to surgery no promises were made but Dr. Salari felt I'd have a good result.

The attention to detail from the first consult through recovery was first class. Dr Fields and his staff was very responsive and timely in answering any questions.

I really appreciate the staff at DISC. Dr Chris Yeung is thorough and concerned to get the best results possible. He has taken the time to fully explain my options so I can make the best informed decisions for my health. I feel lucky to have the DISC team to work with. I believe they and Dr. Chris Yeung are the very best in this field. I recommend them whenever I hear of someone with back pain.

Doctor Abrams is an amazing surgeon. With all of my reluctance and hesitation, I must say my experience from beginning to end was flawless. Everyone from the front office to the xray tech were kind, patient, accommodating and understanding. Great staff and great doctor.

...This will be the second five star review that we are going to give Dr. Christopher Yeung and desert institute for spine care a review. Three months prior my boyfriend had to have neck surgery which they did a phenomenal job on. Now he had a second surgery lower spine back fusion. Once again Dr. Christopher Yeung and his staff did an outstanding job. We could not be any happier with their service and their results. My boyfriend is 57 years old extremely Active business owner who travels around the world. For over 1 1/2 years he wasn’t able to do his job until he had both of the surgeries. Thank you Dr. Yeung and your staff for allowing him to have his life back!!!!!

In for my second Post Op. it is just a pleasant experience every time!

Desert Institute is an extremely professtional and caring facility. Upon arrival, you first meet the staff that is freindly and professional. Next, you will see the exray technician, who will brighten your worst day. Then, Dr. Abrams, who was my surgeon, will greet you with a terriffic smile. You will be well cared for..as that is what they do. And they do it very well!! I would give them a 10 if I could!!!

Dr. Justin Field and his staff are very professional and friendly. He is a highly accomplished surgeon and I am glad that he was recommended to me. My experience with his surgery and the technique he uses is much better than a previous back fusion from another surgeon the year before. Also, the Oasis Hospital experience was MUCH better than the hospital I went to during last surgery.

I just moved from Calif to Phoenix. Went to my first visit to see Dr Nima Salari. I was very impressed with him and his staff. Everyone was very friendly and most importantly I left feeling that he was proactive and would be able to help me. His staff has been on it as far as making sure all xrays were ordered and done prior to apt. Him and his staff seem extremely knowledgeable. I know I'm in good hands. Thank you...

Through The grace of God Dr. Christoper Yeung has hands like Jesus Christ! In November 2019, My 71yr old father needed several vertebrae fused in his neck due to years of hard work which left him in severe pain, loss of mobility and constant discomfort. Within 24hrs of the surgery my father was not only released from the hospital but pain free and ready to take on the world as if he was in his 30s! From The staff at DISC to the hospital staff at the Core Institute, each and every one was compassionate, caring, professional, patient and gave nothing but their best attention to his care and needs! Thank you for giving his life back to him!

The doctor may be alright, but his staff is unethical and unaccountable. The office failed to check and verify our insurance status before the visit even though they were informed we had changed insurances and were given the new information. Not only was a basic office visit (surgery consult) WAY over priced, but when the matter was addressed with the office manager she informed us that though her office had made the mistake and dropped the ball we would need to pay the difference minus her price increase discount from the former year. Be accountable for your staff! Do your jobs correctly! Don't act like your mistakes are no big deal to others. They could have given a reasonable reduced visit rate for being out of Network, but it is clear that this office is all about money and their patients aren't seen as people but rather as walking check books. Additionally, "the minimally invasive- nerve burn" surgery preformed through this office last year was ineffective, hence the reason more surgery is still needed!

I made an appointment with DISC after experiencing enormous frustration with my previous surgeon and center for orthopedic research. I was living in extreme pain, unable to sleep or walk with my left leg becoming partially paralyzed. Phone calls and pleas for help went ignored while waiting for up to two weeks at a time for any action and appointments. I accomplished more in one office visit with Dr. Abrams at DISC than a month and a half of being played with by my former provider. DISC x-rayed me right then and there, with an excellent follow up and discussion with Dr. Abrams who reviewed my MRI and x-rays. Dr. Abrams explained all the pluses and minuses of the different approaches to my not so good condition and gave me a very high level of confidence in himself and DISC. His minimally invasive approach (as opposed to the other guy) sealed the deal. After my discussion with Dr. Abrams, I was able to immediately schedule surgery that I felt comfortable with and felt like I made the right decision. Surgery was scheduled with only a 10 day wait, as opposed to 4-6 weeks from the other guys. I am so happy to finally be moving forward and living pain free. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Abrams and DISC. Do not mess around anywhere else if you need decisive action.

Dr Justin Fields is Amazing! I am Without Pain after he performed a diskectomy on my L5 S1! I had injured my back picking up a case of water bottles incorrectly and when I picked that case of water bottles up, I slipped 3 discs in my back at the same time. It was a pain like I have never felt in my life because my disc was pressing on my nerve on my lower part of my back ( the MRI showed severe spinal stenosis). I had numbness in my leg as well as pain shooting through my hip and leg area and pain centered in my lower back. Dr. Fields is a conservative surgeon and I love that because he didn't try to rush me in for a fusion. Of course you have to jump through Insurance hoops and I did have to get an epidural which didn't help but I knew that it wouldn't. Dr. Fields did such an amazing job in surgery that the moment my surgery was over, I was out of pain. In fact, healing from a back surgery seemed simple because I no longer had the pressure of the discs pushing on my nerve in my back. I would recommend him to anyone! His bedside Manner and his surgery skills are above the Rest! Thank you so much doctor Fields for all that you did to get me back on my feet literally. So many of my clients had referred me to doctor fields and I am so glad they did.

They really care about there patients and do everything in there power to make sure you are taken care of and a huge thanks to Dr. Salari and Nicholas Davis couldn’t have asked for a better team .

I want to thank Dr. Field for giving me my life back! He and the staff at DISC are the best!!

On time, pleasant, helpful, informative, no feeling of being rushed, listens to the patient. Great experience!
