NJ Brain & Spine's facility in Bergan is modern and inviting. The receptionist, Natalie, was friendly and efficient. Susana was friendly and thorough with her questions to evaluate my suitability for the procedure. Dr. Azmi was easy to talk with and he provided answers to all my questions about the prep, procedure, and post side effects. Julia was efficient in scheduling and explaining my upcoming tests.
