Patient Reviews
Dec 12, 2024
I was diagnosed with an Acoustic Neuroma in December 2023. Upon receiving the diagnosis, I was filled with fear and uncertainty. A very good friend put me in touch with Dr. Sisti. From the moment my husband and I met with him he put us at ease. He was reassuring, kind and very thorough. His bedside manner is amazing, he has a great sense of humor and is very down to earth. He explained my diagnosis in detail and answered every question with patience easing my anxiety. With his exceptional technical skills, he successfully removed 100% of the tumor in February 2024. The surgery went really well and I had a smooth recovery. I spent 6 days in the neurosurgical unit at Columbia and an additional 5 days in the neuro rehab. I needed rehab because my balance was impaired after the surgery. The care I received was superb. I could not recommend anyone more highly than this brilliant neurosurgeon (and his entire team) to anyone in need of neurosurgical care. Thank you Dr. Sisti!
