Dr. Saleh spent his time answering my questions about my scoliosis even though at 76 and a Parkinson's patient I am not a good candidate for surgery. I appreciated his honesty that physical therapy could help along with massage. I would recommend him to any adult struggling with scoliosis. He is one of the good ones practicing medicind.rater8 Verified Patient

It's lots of things that I can say about Dr. Saleh's professionalism, but there's on thing in particular that I would like to point out. After replacing a bad disc in my back, the following 3 days that I was in the hospital, he came to visit me every morning! That was so special to my wife and I. Sometimes it's just the little things that means a lot. Jesus is my Lord. Dr. Saleh was my surgeon. Thank you Dr. Saleh!

This was my first time meeting Dr. Saleh. He introduced himself and asked me to give him the scenario of my issue. After he asked a few questions to make sure he fully understood my issue we discussed a treatment path forward. Even though Dr Saleh is a surgeon, That was not his first suggestion, but he stated there was a strong possibility that was where we would end. He attentively listened and answered my questions and we agreed on a treatment moving. I was very impressedrater8 Verified Patient

My visit was great and very thorough. Dr Saleh was easy to discuss issues with my back and we both agreed, based on imaging and symptoms that surgery would be the best option. I have put this off for a long period of time looking for a surgeon that was the "right fit" I feel like I found that in Dr Saleh.
