Always a pleasure to meet with Dr Mermelstein! Hes such a nice guy. He takes his time with you , answers all your questions, and never makes u feel your being rushed. He impressed me by not rushing to do surgery right away, he advised me to try this brace shaped for just my body to see how much he could straighten me out 1st. As a last resort he recommended I have a fusion from T-3 to the Sacrum with 2 rods . He’s a great surgeon , I’m 66 and he fixed my scoliosis and kyphosis and everybody’s is pleased with my remarkable recovery! I can’t say enough positive things about this man , he is absolutely the best., I am very grateful for his patience , his knowledge ,his kindness and his compassion. Maria Nappi

I have been a patient of Dr. Sanelli for two years, and I cannot speak highly enough of his exceptional care. He is compassionate, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable, always taking the time to answer all of my questions thoroughly. What truly sets him apart is his calm and reassuring demeanor; he is never an alarmist, which makes every visit a stress-free experience.
His office staff is equally outstanding—consistently friendly, professional, and welcoming. The office environment is clean, organized, and comfortable, making each visit pleasant from start to finish.
Dr. Sanelli is a rare find, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a physician who genuinely cares about their patients' well-being.
