I don’t even know where to begin. Today is Christmas Eve 2014 and I am hanging and feeling great after my neck surgery that took place 5 days ago. Dr. Siddique — I write this directly to you… I am so grateful for you. Beside being the most talented surgeon — you are kind, human, available and all around comforting. I was referred to Dr. Siddique by two co– workers that had the same surgery I did. I had a synthetic disc inserted into my C5&C6 of my neck. I was experiencing horrible pain — tingling down my left arm, occasional tingling down my left leg. The quality of my life was totally affected by this both physically and mentally. From the moment I met Dr. Siddique I felt comfortable with him. He suggested at first I try PT, get epidural injections and only then if those didn’t work that surgery was the next step. The fact that he didn’t rush right into surgery made me feel even more confident that he was a good person. His office staff rocks. Amanda Barrett and Erika Cartegena are so lovely, responsive, supportive, and accessible to the many questions I constantly had. Even after my surgery — during the holiday season all have responded back to me via email with questions I have had. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Siddique and his staff.

Dr. Siddique is an amazing spinal surgeon. You can’t get much better than Dr. Siddique. He is so caring and amazingly talented and gifted as a surgeon. I thank God for him often. I had known Dr. Siddique about 3 years before he operated on me. He had taken care of my mother and was so kind and wonderful. He was very upfront with us from the start that he did not feel he could operate on her and make her condition any better. We appreciated his honesty and integrity. In 2007 I was involved in a very bad mva and was experiencing neck and back pain along with some headaches. He was extremely conservative in his approach, never mentioning surgery until my pain began to radiate down my arms and cause numbness and tingling in my fingers. I was also getting weaker in my hands. He told me that it was time to operate because my condition was getting worse, definitely not better. He told me surgery to replace the cervical disc was no longer elective, but absolutely necessary to stop the damage the disc was causing to my spinal cord. I elected to not have the fusion type surgery instead having a titanium disc inserted where my damaged disc was removed. When I woke up from surgery I could almost immediately tell that the horrific pain I had been living with was much better. I continued to improve and I can definitely say it was a total success. This office is wonderful and you won’t find any better surgeon elsewhere.
