Ali Hazama, MD

"First and foremost, I cannot thank Dr. Hazama enough for the excellent and special care that he has provided and for the unique gift he is to his patients. Dr. Hazama performed a spinal fusion on me. He has returned me to the things I love to do. Dr. Hazama is not only a amazing surgeon who was there for me every step of this journey of mine, but also has become a great friend. A Big shout out to his staff (Maureen and Stacey), for keeping things flowing smooth! Jayme Colasanti"

"Fantastic experience with Dr Hazama @ Upstate University Hospital. Minimally invasive back surgery completed with no complications and back to work as quickly as I wanted. I went from barely able to walk when getting out of bed to getting up with virtually no pain. Very professional and a pleasant bedside manner as a bonus. I would highly recommend both Dr Hazama and this minimally invasive alternative to the standard spinal fusion."

"My mother was having surgery months back and Dr Hazama was brought in on part of the case. Her original doctor told us he had a skill set that most do not and thought his expertise was what was best for my mom. His bedside manor was outstanding. Communication before, during and after the surgery was 10/10 ! Thank you for everything!"

"Dr Hazama is a companionate genius. His curious questions and charm put my mother at ease right away. He recommended and did endoscopic surgery for a disc herniation in her neck and she woke up pain free. Four months later she remains pain-free and has full use of her left hand again. Thank you for being amazing!!!!"
