List of Kenneth Lipow's Reviews
Dr Lipow and his team are exceptional. My dad suffered a TBI 12 years ago and he knew exactly when he could not survive without a decompressive craniotomy. He visited my dad often and unlike the first doctor who wanted me to let my dad die, dr Lipow surgery then and later with skull flap was amazing. Even though my dad had to relearn so much, he was right in saying he would improve over first 2 years. We have been blessed.
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Lipow and his staff. After multiple inconsistent doctor results Dr. Lipow found metastatic breast cancer in my bones and has since been an incredible helpful guide. I highly recommend him as a sensitive, caring And truly compassionate individual. A rare gem in today’s world! Gina Barra Faccio
Excellent surgeon who is very caring and professional, He took excellent care of me.
Awesome doctor. Extremely knowledgeable, great bedside manner and great staff.
Cervical spinal fusion done 2019. Surgery a failure, no concern for patient. Found a wonderful new surgeon at Yale. Another surgery and after over 7 hrs of repair, found out that spine was in the process of collapsing because no framework had been inserted to support spinal fusion. Plus the fact that the hospital overdosed me and had to be given narcan.
Dr lipow ruined my back.he did a laminectomy on l4 l5 on lower back. I brought the MRI cd with me.he c Didn't even know how to open it to review it.He said he didn't need it. He poked around on my back to find where my pain was.He said ah that's were it is .He did a laminectomy l4 l5.After the surgery I could feel it was a failure. I never got any relief.It caused my back to progress to spondololthesis grade 3.I also developed foot drop.He told me it would get better.He ruined my back and life. I went to another surgeon and did a spinal fusion.That is what He she Outdoor of did in the first place.Please beware of this doc unless you want failed back surgery. I should do sued him.IWaited too long to.he is a bad surgeon.
I was referred by another physician who couldn't perform surgery since she didn't take my insurance. It was a hassle finding parking and having to visit Zimmerman at the hospital. I Spent 15 minutes filling out the endless pile of forms and then another almost 20 minutes waiting (nobody else was in the waiting room). After all of that, Dr Zimmerman spent less than 5 minutes with me, didn't do a full exam and completely discounted what the previous doctor had told me. In my opinion he was rude and arrogant. .. As I was walking out he tells me he is moving to another practice and I will have to schedule any additional appointments with the new group. ... I'm going to find someone else entirely. This was a terrible experience.
Dr.Zimmerman is an outstanding Doctor. He has treated me with the up most respect and care. If your looking for the best back surgeon Dr.Zimmerman one of top surgeon in Fairfield county and possible New Haven Country.
Dr Lipow performed a spinal stenosis laminectomy and fusion without metal splinting, using the bone removed from the vertebrae.
Dr. Lipow doesn't rush to knife. He treats the patient first.
