"When I 1st met Dr Pirris I was in a wheelchair unable to walk; the day before a schwannoma tumor showed in the mri and it was bending my spinal cord. I had emergency surgery the next day on a Saturday morning...I've had 2 more spinal surgeries (other areas in my back) since then and Dr Pirris is great; he has personally called to answer any question or concerns that I had. He is awesome. A very caring Neurosurgeon. "

"Dr. Pirris listens carefully to his patients & takes time to answer questions. He explains his findings & offers his plan of action to correct your medical issues. Nice bedside manner as well as being an outstanding surgeon. I trusted him completely with my care and am very pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend Dr. Pirris as an excellent Neurosurgeon. "

"This review is long overdue but my only excuse is that I couldn't find the right words to express my gratitude and respect for Dr Pirris and his staff. I had consulted with 3 surgeons before finding Dr. Pirris. Dr. Pirris took a totally different approach to the back surgery I desperately needed but was terrified to have. He and his NP, Sherri Kimes, took the time to explain (more than once) the procedure that would be performed and what I could expect every step of the way. Dr. Pirris is a compassionate, incredibly skilled and state-of-the-art surgeon and you will find none better. Even the nurses in the hospital surgery suite as well as the anesthesiologist sang his praises. I am now 6 months post surgery and I think of him every time I enjoy a walk on the beach, drive my car or swing a golf club. I'd like to give 10 stars to someone who gave me my life back. He is simply the best."

"I've tried to schedule a follow up appointment for surgery but, after ten minutes of pushing buttons and getting more messages to push more buttons, I still don't have a appointment which kind of scares me. What if I need help after surgery, push more buttons?"
