I can't recommend Dr. Kanter to anyone. I had degenerated disks in my back. Dr. Kanter performed a laminectomy. We discussed doing a spinal fusion and he said he would not do it now. I was still in pain after the surgery. Sixteen months later the pain was so intense, I went to another surgeon who said that he could not see any difference in the before and after MRIs. In fact he said he could not see that Kanter did anything. He also said it was one of the worst disks he had seen on the first MRI. Very unhappy that I had to go in for surgery that soon. Kanter is very arrogant and not patient friendly. I have considered filing a malpractice suit against him. I did have the other surgeon perform the fusion and I am a new person now.

I was in the worst pain of my life. Couldn't sleep in my own bed. Walking with a walker. Just went down to the count after 6 months of therapy chiropractor and injections. Thought I might be disabled for the rest of my life. Dr kanter did my spinal fusion and I was back to work in 9 weeks and am back to my old self again. Feel fortunate to have found such a great surgeon with such an awesome support staff. I would recommend him to anyone. But remember, its up to you to do your work after he does his. Thanks Dr Kanter!!!!!!

First appointment said definitely could benefit from surgery. After finds out you have Medicaid does not want to treat you. Sends you off to others and wastes your time.

Wonderful, knowledgeable neurosurgeon and person. Fabulous bedside manner. Explains everything in layman terms. Puts patients first and always goes above and beyond call of duty. His office staff is top notch. This is a must see/go to dr. for any/all spinal/lumbar/cervical issues. He will not only heal you but make you feel like a person and not just a patient! Highly skilled, top notch dr.!!!

Steer clear of this doctor. After going through a double lumbar fusion, the pain in my back and going down my legs are still just as bad if not worst. And his answer when asked why was, "I don't know". Then continued on to say that there is really no need for me to return to see him. So I feel like he got his money and now he is done with me.
