I have had two conditions in the past two years that required me to seek physical therapy: a disc problem and a shoulder issue- both were causing me considerable pain. The staff of the PT department were kind, compassionate, and professional, helping me through those issues and supporting me each step of the way. Mallory in the scheduling office has a heart of gold, and helped me not only with scheduling to fit my busy life, but she also navigated the sometimes-tricky concerns of insurance coverage; and worked with my provider to assure that the coverage was correctly applied to my case. Dr.'s Monika and Karen worked with great skill to get me back to functionality, making me feel special and cared for while treating me. Kudos to a great team!

I’ve seen Dr. Ron Ben-Meir in both the Hoboken and West Orange offices. He is not only pleasant, attentive, empathetic and sympathetic but very patient and accurate. He takes his time with his patients, ask questions and answers all your concerns. His staff is excellent, a pleasure to see, Maria at front is so pleasant Danielle is super sweet and Karina is very very professional and always helps with any questions I have. Dr.Ben-Meir is always smiling and a pleasure. I recommend anyone and everyone to see Dr. Ben-Meir, he makes you feel so comfortable and relaxed the staff makes you feel welcomed , you don’t want to leave his office which is also Covid free and clean and beautiful. A+++ 100% recommend.
Dr. Ben-Meir has helped my mom Mary tremendously! She suffers from very bad pain in her neck and with the help of his treatments and care she has started to feel more like herself and comfortable carrying on with daily activities that caused her a great deal of pain prior to visiting him. He is personable, patient, and pays great attention to detail in order to provide his patients with top quality care. We would highly recommend visiting Dr. Ben-Meir for your pain management needs!

I've been a patient of Dr. Ben-Meir's for over 10 years and I can't thank him enough for the exceptional treatment he's given me! I trust him with my pain management and listen to his advice. I can't tell you how many times I walked into his office in pain and left there feeling better or, at least, with a plan of treatment and optimism that I was going to be feeling better soon! I've damaged my body playing sports through the years and as a firefighter have subjected my body to consistent abuse. Dr. Ben-Meir gives me the ability to do both to the best of my ability and with as little pain as possible! I trust him so much that I've brought my mom and dad to him for treatment! I highly recommend Dr. Ron Ben-Meir!

I was so happy to fina an interventionist in network! Dr Ben-Meirs bedside manner and conservative approach is admirable. He has assisted with several ailments in my shoulder and wrist due to excessive use with the sports I recreationally play. Dr Ben-Meir is extremely knowledgeable in his field and his diagnosis is spot on!I am also thrilled he has a flouroscopy suite in his Hoboken office and was able to perform an epidural on site, avoiding a surgical center and wait time. I am forever grateful for Dr Ben Meir's care and I am back on the court, pain free!

Dr. Ron Ben-Meir at CNSO has helped me tremendously with my chronic neck and shoulder pain. He is incredibly compassionate and thorough, asks all the right questions and got to the root cause of my pain in one visit. His recommendations for trigger point injections and physical therapy helped me immensely. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Ben-Meir.

I went to Dr humanoff for a EMG I looked up EMG on YouTube I was petrified But it wasn't nothing like it showed you why because Dr H was so so kind gentle laughed help me with experience kindness it was a breeze if I wasn't 74 and he delivered babies his voice is so calming I'd have 10 kids.
I had such a pleasant conversation with Michelle Gebhardt yesterday, August 8Th. She was so helpful in assisting me with trying to locate a new place to receive my back trigger point injection. Unfortunately I lost my insurance and am now on Medicaid. I desperately still need to receive this shot due to surgery not being an option. I look forward to hearing back from her with any new information she was able to locate for me. I am so sad that I can no longer be a patient there. The staff was always so kind and helpful. Thank you!

From the first day I walked in this office, I was treated with care, courtesy and professionalism. Also, the office was very clean and tidy. When I met Dr. Raab I was in an extreme pain and he was the first Dr. who understood my pain and wanted to relieve me as soon as possible. He was very calming and caring which made me feel more comfortable in a scary situation as we were discussing surgery. I had tried all other avenues like pain pills and epidural shots and still had extreme pain so surgery was last my resort. I thought I would have to wait weeks or months but because of the pain I was in, he was able to squeeze me in the next week. To make this happen, his staff had to get a lot done quickly and they were on it from the minute I was diagnosed. Kira, who is Dr. Raabs scheduling person was on calls getting me all the medial clearance appointments I needed in the next couple days. She was amazing and made it happen so quickly and was also very caring of my situation so thank you so much Kira! Dr Raab is the most calm, reassuring and caring Dr. I have ever met. He new I was upset and was scared of the surgery and made me feel calm and comfortable in our first meeting and at the hospital on the day of surgery. He has a very calming way about him and all the hospital staff were raving about how amazing of a Dr. he is. He has been amazing though this entire process and did such a great job on my back surgery and I was able to walk out of the hospital, when before the surgery I could barely walk. I feel lucky to have found Dr. Raab and I’m so thankful for him and his amazing staff. If you’re looking for a great Dr. who cares and his amazing at what he does, as well as has an amazing staff look no further and call his office asap! Thank you Dr. Raab, Kira and all the staff who helped me through this process!!!

Amazing staff, super helpful and wonderful facility. Physical therapy has been a huge help and Joanna is warm, caring and works with exactly what is needed for your issue. Although my condition required more management, my core is so much stronger, which will aid in having a much stronger back and efficient movement. Thank you for everything you've done for me. Also thank you to Dr. Oh and Dr. Haber! I'm getting my life back!

Highly competent staff. Lovely, clean space. A very nice place to get your body in order
Staff is friendly and accommodating. My physical therapist, Joanna, was wonderful. It's obvious that she genuinely cares about her patients.

I would like to take a moment to comment on the outstanding professionalism that has been extended to me each time I walk in your office and meet with Evangelyn. She exemplifies a dedicated interest in each and every person and her communication and dedication to patients is outstanding! If I had my own company I would steal her away and offer her a job immediately!!

The facility is clean and Covid safe. The staff is pleasant. I never had to wait to be seen and everyone was always willing to answer any of my questions. Joanna (my physical therapist) is not only gentle and patient, but extremely knowledgeable. In addition to getting my back feeling better, she taught me a lot about how my body works and what I can do to keep it working after therapy. I walked away with a list of exercises and a world of thanks.
Fantastic professional staff

Where do I begin…between 2011 in 2016 I met with over a dozen qualified orthopedic doctors. I finally found Dr. Raab through a friend late 2016.

Well deciding to prolong surgery till ultimately necessary he told me “I would see him again”
October 22, 2018 he performed disc replacements C6 C7
But it wouldn’t of happened without the help of his brilliant staff!!!!!
Unfortunately we did not have the proper insurance with out of network coverage his staff went above and beyond and fought to get it covered through insurance 100%

I thank them so very much no pain after the surgery thank you very much
Very professional and courteous staff and Doctor. Office clean and ample. Not a long wait. Loved the way that Dr. examined my husband. Very careful, detailed and not rushing on the examination.
Dr. Explained everything clearly. Would highly recommend him

I wish I could give this amazing group more then 5 stars. I have had back pain for over 6 years, and have tried countless things before seeing Dr.Branko. The second I met him I instantly knew this man could change my life. Dr.Branko was the first and only doctor to actually take the time and explain to me about what type of back condition I had. He showed me on the images I brought to him, and he even wanted images that no one has thought of taking. He took the time to answer all the questions I had and clear up any uncertainties I had. In the same day I had my first appointment with him I scheduled my surgery. Every single staff member has been AMAZING since day one! They go above and beyond to make sure that you get the correct care, and you do not feel left in the dark.
I even started PT that is apart of their office. It makes me feel at ease that the PTs work in connection with all the surgeons. If the therapist is unsure of something they go right over to the surgeon.

I will FOREVER suggest and recommend North Jersey Spine Group to anyone who has spine/neuro issues.
North Jersey Spine Group is fantastic! Dr. Branko is an amazing surgeon and the PT dept is top notch. I've been to ~6 other places for PT over the years and had the most success here by far. The whole team is very attentive, knowledgeable and helpful.

I owe Dr. Raab my life, not only did he give me my life back he has also saved my mothers life. You will never find a more compassionate, caring and incredible doctor. I can’t say enough good things about him.

Sometimes you just get lucky. This was one of those times. I can say with 100% certainly. If you are faced with the decision of undergoing back surgery, it would be well worth your time to schedule an appointment with Dr. Raab. Really satisfied with his manner of communication, his professionalism, and obviously what he brings to the table. It didn't take long after checking into Valley Hospital that I received assurance from every hospital staff member connected to my surgery that I had an excellent surgeon. They all had really nice things to say. Dr. Raab is definitely a people person and with Doctors today in my experience the connection with people has been lost. I truly believe Dr. Raab has your best interest in mind and will handle your case with the same level of competency as he did mine.
