Completely Fixed my Back
I was suffering with back issues since 1996 and finally it got so bad I needed surgery in March of 2020. Dr. Khounganian performed the surgery and I was up and walking within a few hours after the procedure and have been pretty much pain free since. His nurses and staff were great to work with al well..

It's possible he's a terrific doctor, but...
After my 2nd appointment to discuss test results with Kelly, the Physician's Assistant, she gave me her business card and told to email if I had any follow-up questions. A few days later I did have a few questions I had neglected to ask during my brief appointment, so I emailed them to Kelly. Weeks went by with no response. After a month or so, I called the office to make sure she was working (she was) so I emailed her again. No response. After a couple of additional months, I sent a personal letter to Dr. Khounganian explaining the situation to him and why I can't move forward with him as my doctor. I never heard back from him either. No call. No email. No text. So, it's very possible that he is a terrific doctor, but I'll never find out.

Greg Khounganian simply does not care about people or their health and will direct you to whatever it is to his benefit, which is money. I have never left a bad review, but here is my first and reason why. I trusted his highly recommended new "none invasive surgery" and paid $7500 for a stem cell therapy in which he promised would improve the "arthritis" and lower back pain I am having. It has been over 5 months since the procedure and 0% improvement. In fact, I'm having more pain and issues than ever and could firmly say that he caused more damage to my lower back. It turns out that he did not use quality product, nor performed appropriate service. Finally, he did not even bother with a follow up appointment ever since I left the hospital. I finally called him last week and explained how I am having severe lower back pain from the procedure, additionally that he not once make effort to follow up on a CASH patient who trusted his word.

I was in so much pain for 4 years, because I was afraid to have surgery! I interviewed a few doctors, I decided to go with dr. K. since I felt he was very honest with me. I am very happy with the result of my surgery. The other doctor told me that in to time 6 weeks after surgery that I can start playing tennis. Dr. K told me that is not true, it will take a little longer. Also to try not to do too much, by lifting heavy stuff. He is a good doctor with kind personality!
