Referred by my wife who also suffers chronic back problems, I visited Dr. Mazin regarding pain shooting down my left buttock and thigh. Having previously undergone (successful) surgery to repair a herniated L4/L5 disk, I (unfortunately) know my way fairly well around degenerative spine disease and treatment modalities.

Dr. Mazin was the consummate engaged professional at every encounter, from the moment he first walked into the exam room, through diagnosis and treatment (L4/L5 injection) at the hospital. He asked incisive questions, articulated his thoughts and medical opinions with absolute clarity in both lay and medical terms, and all the while expressing genuine sympathy for my condition.

My treatment was decided very much through a bilateral dialog between Dr. Mazin and me. He took the time to discuss all the options, fielded all my questions, and together we agreed that the injection best suited my situation.

I came away from every consultation with Dr. Mazin with a feeling of categorical confidence that I was in the hands of a physician who knows his profession at the highest levels of skill. I should also note that Dr. Mazin and his office team (Mary gets a special shout out...) went out of their way to get me fast-tracked through MRI, injection scheduling and insurance approval to get the procedure done prior to my imminent departure on a two-week international trip.

Having read some of the complaints about Dr. Mazin's bedside manner, I can only remind others that our doctors are not there to be our friends, or to provide us with a pleasing "customer experience." They are there to provide us expertise about, and treatment for disease. That said, I personally found Dr. Mazin's bedside manner to be impeccable (I also overheard him at the hospital in conversation with an elderly patient suffering from excruciating back pain, and he could not have sounded more empathic!).

I highly recommended Dr. David Mazin.

Dr. Mazin seemed inattentive, dismissive, and uninterested. He spent less than 10 minutes with me. I have several injuries, and even though he had only spent a few minutes with me, after briefly addressing one injury, he refused to address another. The symptoms he did address were done so with a very, very brief and superficial physical evaluation...even though I told him these symptoms had lasted almost 10 years, required two surgeries, and prohibited many daily activities. He asked almost no probing questions. His prescription for me was equally as uninvolved and dismissive. Additionally, his office gave me the wrong address, so I was an hour late (though they were very courteous).
