I have chronic & acute lumbar back issues. Dr. Jaffe is knowledgeable and focused. He help me understand the underlying mechanics and causes of pain. I am too young for fusion to have a likely good outcome long-term, and the advice that Dr. Jaffe has given has lead me to a number of alternatives that may work. I highly recommend Dr. Jaffe to anyone that needs a good physiatrist.
Dr. Jaffe is definitely a professional in his specialty and I would highly recommend him to my family and friends. He is thorough and caring in making diagnosis and providing treatment options.
Dr. Michael Jaffe MD is an excellent choice if you are in need of physical medicine. He is up to date on evidence based treatment and took the time to educate me about treatment options. My father was a pioneer in physical medicine and was also impressed after speaking with Dr. Jaffe. He was concerned and informative and provided a number of options beyond medications.
Dr. Jaffe is excellent. He actually listens to me and isn’t in a rush to send me off. His treatment plans and follow up have been very effective, and his network of other specialist have been helpful. Instead of simply treating whatever the problem is, ( my back, my neck, etc.) he helps me obtain maximum function in other areas (work, family, hobbies, etc.) and in treating the whole person. Since I started treatment with him, I feel like I've got my life back.
I was in a car accident and for three years went to all kinds of doctors and physical therapist for my shoulder pain. I could not lift my right arm. After several tests, he was able to find out the cause of my pain and fix it. I have been pain free for two years so far.
As plaintiffs attorney, Dr Jaffe quickly identified painful and disabling conditions and developed a life care plan that helped my clients maximize compensation for their injuries. He is easy to work with, comprehensive and timely.
