Dr. John D. Lipani MD, PhD, FAANS, FACS

My name is Dr. Sam Gallucci and I am honored to have the opportunity to write a review on Dr. John Lipani. Dr. Lipani is certainly one of a kind who specializes in revision spine surgery. I was seeking second opinions on back surgery where fusion was recommended by other Neurosurgeons. I was seeking advice from the best, so I contacted Dr. Lipani. In my conversation with his Nurse Kathy, I was informed that he did not accept my insurance but was willing to review my MRI and other Xray’s. Keep in mind that I had reached out to other Neurosurgeons who did not take insurance and was told the fee would range from $375 to $500 for 1 office visit. Not the case with Dr. Lipani. He reviewed my X-rays, spoke with me on the phone for 20 minutes and gave me his recommendations. He then sent me a formal written report of his findings and recommendations that I could share. He certainly considers people above monetary gain. He performed this service free of charge and never once requested any payment. Dr. Lipani is an amazing human being, a top surgeon who specialize in revision spine surgery. I would recommend him without hesitation.

Dr Lipani has been given a gift and Blessings with his hands skills but more importantly his bed side manner. He has been in complete communication with me about my case. Our first office visit he got to know "Me" he literally took the time out for me to physically demonstrate where my pain was located. I felt like I made no sense but he was patient, understanding and compassionate. He has an old school bedside manner combined with new technology. (They just don't groom doctor's like this anymore. He's truly the best at what he does).

He explained the process to me in English terms not " DOCTOR "jargon. He showed up in the anesthesia room and talked to me again. After speaking with me several times throughout this process. His RN Kathy is the best she will walk with you ecplain anything that you may not be clear about.
she will fight for you when the insurance company try to pull a fast one.she return emails in an appropriate and timely manner. If you're looking for a neurosurgeon to make your life whole again. Dr John D Lipani is your guy not only is he humble and incredible He has the best staff in the field
Friendly, personable, Professional and yes they're hilarious. I had my surgery on the 23rd of February 2021. The 24th of February 2021 is the first time that I've been pain-free since October of 2019. Other than surgical soreness.
My Lower back pain is completely than you Dr John Lipiani is not only a humble doctor and man. He has the best staff in the field. They're Professional, personable, patient and friendly they are also hilarious and do all they can to place the patient at ease. Thank you Dr John Lipani for giving me my life back.

Dr. Lipani has Operated on 2 of my immediate family members. My sister had an anterior cervical decompression and instrumented fusion and she made a complete and total recovery. My niece had lumbar spinal surgery and she too had a full and speedy recovery after suffering with debilitating pain for a very long time. You will not find a more qualified, experienced, caring and genuinely compassionate surgeon. He is truly the best.

The care I received from Dr. Lipani and Kathy, his head nurse, is unlike any I have encountered in my entire life. Dr. Lipani at every visit takes the time to listen and then thoroughly explain how he can help you. He truly cares about his patients and wants to fix what is wrong. He is there for his patients before, during and after surgery. I have never met a doctor that is willing to be on call to talk to his patients the way Dr. Lipani does. He has truly been an angel and is so incredibly genuine. Kathy is another invaluable component of the office. She makes sure that you NEVER have to wait for anything. She literally takes care of everything single thing that you need from insurance, hospital, appointments, you name it - it's done. I could never thank them both enough for everything they have done for me. Dr. Lipani is a very special man and amazing doctor that anyone would be incredibly lucky to have.

Dr. Lipani is hands down, the best neurosurgeon around. Thorough, has up to date knowledge and skills, he is super compassionate and strives to provide the absolute best care possible. Dr. Lipani takes all the time you need to address the issue. He's seen me in the office, taken my calls, and responded to my emails promptly and answers questions in a way that the average person can understand with ease. I've had two spinal surgeries and require a neck surgery due to a deformity I have, and there is no one else I would consider to do my surgery than Dr. Lipani. He visited every day during my hospital stay, including on a holiday, ensuring that I remained pain free and that my recovery was a breeze. Dr. Lipani's staff are just as great as he is. He's fantastic and the only neurosurgeon I'd let operate on me or my family. Highly recommend him.
