Marat Grigorov, DO Neurosurgical Spine Institute, Port Charlotte FL

Doctor didn't really listen to everything that I was telling him like numbness and tingling and my extremities just decided to send me the physical therapist and then get a shot in my neck I also wanted to ask him about my mom having ALS and if I will have it because it was genetic and I felt rushed so I didn't ask and I don't know I think soon I'll be going somewhere else things don't get better

I had a good experience from the minute I walked in Dr Grigorov's office. The young lady at the check in desk was helpful and very pleasant. The nurse who did my vitals and info was also very nice and I found her really easy to talk to.
Dr.grigorov came in and I found him.to be very likable. He seems to really know his stuff. I wasn't rushed. He took his time explaining my problem to me, and took the time to listen to all my concerns. I will recommend him highly.

Referred by my lawyer due to Work Comp. I waited over 6 months and went to 2 other Neurosurgeons (who didn’t even see me) to be told I don’t need surgery but pain management. I had 2 trips to ER that highly recommended surgery due to discs touching my spinal cord. I had hoped Dr. Grigorov would take the time to review the MRI disc with me but less than 5 minutes, he stated my back injury did not require surgery but pain management. I’ve been on pain medication that only masked the pain. What I’ve been waiting for is to resolve the back injury and not “deal” with the pain through just medication. Hopefully, since I have recently provided additional documentation, he will re-evaluate my back injury and not be as dismissive as he appeared on my first visit with him yesterday. (1/25/23)

I was treated well. The staff was very friendly. They and Dr Grigorov were knowledgeable - I felt as if I was in good hands.

Staff was amazing. Waiting area and room was very clean. Dr Marat was great answered any questions I had and explained very well about my upcoming surgery

Wonderful staff. Everyone is always very pleasant. Dr. Grigorov is very understanding and polite. He takes his time and also orders the necessary xrays or MRI's to make sure nothing is missed. He explains things very well and seems to really care about his patients and his nurse is super sweet.

I wouldn't use this doctor. He orders a catscan on my lower back. Aetna wants to speak to the doctor, he wouldn't take the time to do it. I paid out of my pocket to get it done, which wasn't much money. I called and all I got was ill try to talk to him. I even left a message about moving forward with the operation, and again I didn't get a phone call. So be careful when using them, they don't go out of their way for their patients.

Before Dr. Grigorov, I walked with a cane. But I could walk for a mile. However, because of a hip pain, I visited Grigorov. He indicated that surgery would allow me to walk normally pain-free. So, I agreed with his proposed fusion surgery on my back.
He botched the surgery and today I cannot walk. When I get out of my wheelchair to use my walker, I can only go about 20 feet before the pain is so severe I must sit down. Dr. Grigorov has no idea what to do!
Do NOT go to him. Go anywhere else. I rue the day I met him.

UPDATE: Despite continuing problems, I have never heard from Dr. Grigorov. Although he said he would try and help me, this was yet another falsehood. He doesn't care!
LATEST UPDATE: The results of his surgery continue to make me worse. Now, the right leg drags and has no feeling. Before Grigorov, I could walk with a cane! Months have gone by without any word from him. He's only interested in his fee-he cares nothing about his patient!

Great staff, very clean and comfortable waiting area. Wait time was extremely short. The doctor and assistant couldn’t be more genuine and caring. Looking forward to some relief from my pain and discomfort.

Almost 7 months I had trouble walking, having a lot of pain from ruptured disc. Dr. Grigorov did wonderful job on my back surgery. He explained everything to me before the surgery, made sure to answered all my questions. After the surgery I woke up with no pain, I was able to walk again. The staff is amazing, extremely nice hard working and you could just tell the dedication to the job. I give 10/10

I was looking for a neurosurgeon who wouldn’t automatically suggest surgery and that is what I got. Dr. Grigorov was very knowledgeable, really listened and came up with a plan that I was comfortable with at my first appointment.

Dr. Grigorov did an excellent job with my brain surgery and follow up. His staff is diligent and responsive.

My experience with Dr Grigorov w as very good! He listened to me and talked to me with patience and understanding.

Dr. Grigorov did an excellent surgery on my back. The minute I woke up there was no pain. He explained the process every step of the way in a way I could understand. My husband had surgery with him last year and when I found out I needed back surgery this year there was no other doctor to call. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Grigorov if you should require surgery!

For almost a year, I was unable to walk around the block without intense pain in my groin and right leg. Dr. G diagnosed the issue and performed surgery to remove a cyst from my spine. I am six weeks post-op and just walked 2+ miles with absolutely no back or leg pain. Thanks to Dr. Grigorov for giving me my life back. He is a miracle worker.

Large, bright waiting area. Seating comfortable for this person's back issues. Did not have to wait long after filling out six pages of forms before Dr. Grigorov saw me. I was pleased to see a doctor himself for a change. He was very attentive and listened to all I had to say. He ordered MRIs "stat" and convinced the imaging facility to fit me in early. All in all I was pleased with the service I received.
