Dr. Rashidi saved my daughter from being parallelized, and she was the first patient under 20 years of age to have had a L-5 infusion under his watch. (2006 ) my daughter was only 12 years old when he performed the surgery.

Dr. Rashidi saved me from being paralyzed on October 2nd of 2010 when I fell 30 feet off from a roof and my spine was shattered. I was literally 1 Millimeter from the bone chunk severing my spinal cord and me being paralyzed for the rest of my life. I am forever grateful for him saving my life. I am from New Hampshire and we lost a great surgeon because he moved to California.

I felt Dr. Rashidi was competent and compassionate in my health care. I ended up having surgery and did not feel pushed in any way toward this procedure. With every appointment Dr. Rashidi answered all of my questions and explained everything going on. I would refer Dr Rashidi to friends/relatives in need of a Neurosurgeon. I was very happy with my care, treatment and outcome.

Made unrealistic claims of recovery, and overly spiritual. Unwilling to recomend proper pain management to family doctor. Failed to see on MRI images that there was a third disc herniation at the same level after preforming two surgeries to correct my compressed spinal cord. Failed to preform the first emergency surgery in a timely manner, leaving the spinal cord severly compressed for two days causing perminant nerve damage and scar tissue.

I loved this Dr. I would trust him above all others. I'm just so sorry we lost him to New Hampshire. They're very luck to get him. I just wish he would come back to Bakersfield. It's a great loss for us.
