Dr Karimi is everything you want in a doctor who is going to work on your brain! He is kind and patient and reassuring but most importantly he is a brilliant practitioner with years of experience and knowledge. He took care of an aneurysm I had which was an incidental finding due to tests and the minute I met him I knew I was in competent and confident hands. Working with his staff is also a comfort when you are feeling some anxiety about any procedure. Let Dr Karimi ease you through any medical decision regarding aneurysms and related issues and you will have peace of mind throughout the process. Thank you, Dr Karimi, for your expertise and kindness!

Dr. Reza Karimi is God’s Healer, “Mr. Wonderful”. Words can’t describe my compassion and loyalty. His neuro-surgeon expertise, professionalism, and knowledge are beyond incredible. I was so scared during my stays (2 surgeries) at the Hackensack Hospital with blood clots in my brain. He is humble, easy to talk to, and took the time to answer all my questions. Dr. Karimi and staff members visited me in person all the time while I was in my hospital room. Dr. Karimi, you are an amazing soul; so caring, I truly can’t thank you enough for saving my life. I will never forget your kindness. Brings me tears of joy! I’m deeply grateful. Your assistants Elsie and Patty are amazing. Give them a nice holiday bonus! LOL 😊

My husband and I met Dr. Karimi this past Thursday. The office of NJ Brain & Spine is very lovely and modern. And the staff couldn’t be any more helpful and friendly. Dr. Karimi explained my pretty serious medical condition in detail, answered all our questions, and after a further test he ordered, explained every possibility moving forward. I feel complete trust in him, and feel I will have the best outcome in his care. Thank you Doctor Karimi.
