Ochsner Medical Center

Dr. Denis is an extremely capable, skilled, empathetic surgeon, who always has his patient’s best interest in mind. I became an emergent patient of Dr. Denis in early 2020 - right in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. I have a degenerative back disease and was referred to Dr. Denis for immediate care and surgery. My situation was so precarious I could have ended up paralyzed with the slightest misstep. He took me on as a patient and performed an extremely difficult three-tier back surgery. He was just amazing and I recovered from that surgery, which was performed two years ago. Recently, I developed a new back issue, which will require a new surgery directly above the previous surgical area. I am so pleased that the initial surgery has held up perfectly, and the new surgical area can be reached and resolved with minimal difficulty. That surgery has been scheduled for early May 2022.

Exceptionally thorough! I highly recommend Dr. Burke.

I suffered with back pain for a long time He operated in did a lower back infusion and immediately I was paying free He operated in dead a lower infusion and immediately I was pain free He is an amazing doctor And I cannot tell you Enough to say that he is a great doctor

Dr Denis performed major lumbar fusion on me 2 months ago. My recovery Is and has been exceptional! His staff is caring and pleasant. I highly recommend him.

Dr Denis is a miracle worker! Fusion surgery and he got me back to my normal everyday life in 6 weeks. You can see the confidence in his face when he’s telling you what you problem is and exactly what he can do to repair it. Great dr and staff is friendly as can be. I’ve sent 2 people to him and they have had same outcome. Thanks Dr Denis. ??????

Great experience. Had leg/back pain for around 9 month. Dr. Denis found nerve problem in my lower back. MicroSurgery done with a short recovery time. Leg pain gone 2 weeks after procedure. Highly recommended.

Emily Montz, won't leave your bedside till she has explained everything that went with the surgery. Great communication skills.

My daughter was admitted recently after experiencing severe and unique pain at a recent surgery site performed by a different doctor. The first 3 days of her admission they treated her pain and monitored her incision. They were going to refer her back to her previous doctor but accepted our request to transfer to the care of Oschner neurosurgery. At that time they were preparing to discharge her to follow up on an out patient basis when they noticed suspicious drainage on her surgery site dressing. From that point Dr. Kahn and her staff acted expediently to work her up for infection, start IV antibiotics and plan a surgery to access the site and manage the pain hardware she had had installed previously. Dr. Kahn and her team were very detailed oriented and acted expediently and efficiently during her nearly 2 week stay in the hospital. I am grateful for her kindness and expertise and that of her PA team as well.

After seeing Dr. Denis for pain in my lower back.He ordered a Bone Density Test and called me on a weekend himself to give me the results.Very few doctors will call you themself's with test result's let alone on a weekend.I will be seeing him again for neck pain from a previous ACDF surgery.

Dr. Denis is at the very top of his specialty with a comprensive analysis of causative factors and alleviation of pain. Throughout the process of planning through rehab he is very compassionate and personally available to his patients. He is abreast of the latest innovations that neurosurgery has to offer.

Before I saw Dr Denis I was having pain and numbness in both legs. 10 days after surgery I was pretty much pain free in my legs. I definitely recommend Dr Denis if you have any kind of back or leg pain. I'm back to being my normal active self.

Since my surgery of April, 2018, I have strongly recommended Dr. Denis to a minimum of 10 friends with back or spinal issues. I saw him following another physician's failed surgery, where I was mislead to believe that my complaints were fiction. Dr. Denis listened, reviewed my record and thankfully operated on my back. He did for me what I thought would be impossible. He is a physician with empathy and I shall be forever grateful to him.

Dr. Denis is an excellent Neurosurgeon. He did a Lumbar Fusion of my L4 and L5 Vertebrae and R1. I was in severe pain before the surgery. He had a full schedule and cleared his schedule to do my surgery one week after I saw him at his office due to my excruciating pain. I have had total relief of the nerve pain I was having due to my nerves being pinched in the L4 and 5 and R1. I highly recommend Dr. Denis. He is also a very pleasant doctor.

Dr.Smith is a caring and wonderful surgeon , he always takes time to listen and answer any questions or address any concerns. Ofcourse he gets paid but he doesn't seem to mind taking any amount of time to help his patients and their families understand what is happening. He is knowledgeable and is willing to share info. My surgery went great no over cutting and he mayed sure that I healed correctly. I absolutely love him.

Doctor Bui has taken great care of my family and I. He preformed emergency brain surgery on me back on April 3, 2018. And the surgery to put my skull back on, on June 28.

Waited for over an hour past my appointment time only to be rushed and have my questions dismissed. Can’t comment on his surgical skills but after my office visit I’m definitely not letting him perform surgery on my spine. Lacks the kindness and compassion I need to see in a surgeon in order for me to put my spine/life in their hands.

Dr. Denis is an excellent neurosurgeon and a very personable doctor. He has a vast knowledge of his field and explained things to me in layman's terms. I never felt rushed during my office visits. He got me through some painful times. I appreciate his kindness and putting me on the road to a pain free life. I would not ever want to see another doctor. Thank you for being the best, Dr. Denis!

I had a car accident in 2016 that set a horrible set of events in to place. After meeting other neurosurgeons and getting nowhere, and at the peak of my pain and living on multiple painkillers, I went to see Dr. Denis. He recognized the gravity of my situation immediately and scheduled me for surgery the next week. I have a long recovery ahead of me, but thanks to Dr. Denis I have my life back. He was thorough, understanding, and talked to me in words I understood. I'd never see another surgeon!

My name is Tina. Lancon, Dr. Denis & his staff express such professionalism and sincerity when dealing one on one with you. I THANK GOD daily for bringing me to his facility. Due to a failed back surgery in 2016 by an orthopedic surgeon Dr. Denis was the ONLY doctor that was willing to invest his time in finding out what was wrong with me. He has now set forth a plan of action in helping me getting back to BEING ME AGAIN. thank you so very much Dr. Denis! words could never describe my gratitude!

Dr. Daniel Denis is a true professional. I went to him because my right hand was going numb. He explained to me I had spinal stenosis. He really made me feel comfortable and I decided on the surgery (Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion). He did not pressure me to get the surgery, but he explained to me that surgery was my best option. He did the surgery and the next day I was home feeling much better than when I went in. I would highly recommend Dr. Daniel Denis.
