Patient Reviews
Jan 14, 2023
I was referred to Dr. Babat for spine surgery as an emergency. My Dr. Said he was the best for my condition. I have no pain from my back. It’s wonderful to not have the pain because now I’m waking again.

About Me

Care Philosophy
  • Spinal surgery is complex. I feel it is vital that patients understand the nature of their problem, treatment options, and anticipated post-operative course and likely outcomes. Doctors can best help patients by carefully reviewing relevant records and imaging, and, most importantly, listening and asking/answering questions. My patients find that I ``tell it like it is,`` and most appreciate that approach.
