Dr. Paul M. Brisson

Dr. Paul Brisson and his staff are remarkable on the professionalism, talking to me like an equal, and always going out of their way to accomadate me. The surgery went flawless and Dr Brisson was at the hospital checking on me at least twice a day with Theresa Giammarini, RPA for the three days I was at the NY Presbyterian lower Manhattan Hospital. Follow ups were no waiting time and his staff are great. So happy I listened to one of my good friends that recommended him. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr Paul Brisson for any back and spine issues.

This is a very well organised office. The wait time is acceptable. The staff is respectful, organised and professional. The doctors was well trained and thoughtful. They give you all the time you need to ask questions until you feel comfortable with the complexities of your own, unique situation.

Dr. Brisson came very highly recommended, and I could not agree more! He was very caring, compassionate and took the time to explain to me & my husband exactly what surgery I needed and how he would do it. After my surgery he was very busy, but knew I had questions, so he came back to the hospital at 11:00pm to answer all of my questions, he also showed up the next morning, got me out of bed himself, and sat and spoke to me for some time. Dr. Brisson’s office staff has also been great! Every time I call the office they are so friendly and help me with whatever I need!

What a waste of time and money!!!
I had to wait over 2 hrs in the waiting room. Then they had to take their own xrays, because my mri wasn’t enough. Finally I saw dr. Brisson. He spent 10 min with me, explained what needs to be done, but when I started asking questions, he started to rush. He is not covered by my insurance, but I chose him because my physical therapist suggested him. I paid $ 500 for his quick consult. He couldn’t say how much my surgery would cost and said to call billing, because that girl wasn’t working that day.
I called every other day for 3 weeks, left messages, spoke to front desk. No one bothered to call me back.
I don’t know how well he does surgeries, but if his staff is so disrespectful to his patients, what does it say about him?!
I will never recommend him. Only opposite.
Wasted $ 500 on him…

Do not waste your time with this doctor!!! The first appointment went fine, but for my follow-​up appointment which I had booked for 6 weeks, I only met with a nurse who read the results of my MRI to me instead of the actual doctor. When I asked to see the actual doctor, she said that he only sees patients on the first visit (!!). When I said that this surprised me, she said «How else would he see 150 patients in a week?» Completely unbelievable.
