Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

NO MORE PAIN: Doctor Kubeck did a Anterior Cervical Disc Fusion on March 15th, which I walked out the hospital the same day! He was recommended to me by my Pain Management Doctor. I had a herniated disc on C-5 & C -6. A lot of pain. Had several epidurals and faucet joint injections and other procedures. Nothing helped. Doctor Kubeck explain to me and my husband what was going on. He answered numerous questions. His bedside manner was TOP NOTCH!. I am six weeks after surgery. Pain is gone! Have to do some therapy to get range of motion back. All and All I'm glad I did it and had Doctor Kubeck perform the surgery! His office staff is wonderful! I call them. They call right back. Veronica and Lindsay are the BEST! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM AND HIS TEAM! PS His Surgical Team at the Hospital WAS THE BEST!

May 2015. I was diagnosed with Sciatica. It was confirmed by imaging [L4 and L5 - 2 pinched nerves]. He gave me a steroid epidural which helped. I was given a prescription for pain medication. I told him that that medicine did not work for me. Since he had the images and had given me an epidural, there was sufficient evidence that my pain was very real. He insisted I try and told me I could call if the medicine didn’t work. I agreed. In July 2015, my son was killed in a car accident. The trauma brought back excruciating sciatica pain. I called and told the receptionist that the doctor had told me to call if the medicine didn’t work. 24 hours later, No return call. Again, I was in excruciating pain, I called again in tears. No return call. My son’s funeral was the next day. I got through it, but I will never forget.

NO MORE PAIN Dr. Justin Kubeck of Ocean Orthopedic Associates gave me a new lease on life. Many years of back pain and never thought I would be a candidate for spinal fusion, but thanks to a higher power, I found Dr. Kubeck. I couldn’t dress myself, bodily functions were affected, constantly on narcotics, muscle relaxers, creams, patches, steroid shots, physical therapy, chiropractic, acupuncture and still my debilitating pain prevailed. Dr. Kubeck listened compassionately only focusing on how he can greatly help me. He assured that I will return to my active lifestyle with my husband and teenage boys who love surfing and skiing (I’m not ready for that yet but eventually will join them). It’s been a couple of months now since my surgery and I can honestly say, Dr Kubeck FIXED ME and I am forever grateful. His medical assistant Veronica and surgical advisor Lindsay are excellent at what they do. My whole experience with Justin Kubeck, M.D. is PHENOMENAL & HE IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Dr Kubeck is a great doctor he preformed my two surgeries last April at the same time. I am so grateful to him. I currently am off all of my pain medications that I needed to preform my daily routine. His bed side manner is above and beyond. I would recommend him to everyone. Thank you for giving me my life back.

I had cervical fusion surgery 7 weeks ago. The best decision I made. Dr. Kubeck and his staff were extremely helpful. Each appointment visit was on time. Both Dr. Kubeck and his staff took the time to answer all of my questions. Even the days prior to surgery I called with more questions and again he and his staff were timely in responding to me. Would highly recommend this office.

I would recommend Dr. Kubeck as a doctor to anyone. He worked magic with me. The doctor listens to everything you tell him and you never feel like you are ever rushed when you see him. You will never meet a nicer nurse then his nurse Veronica who does her best to help you.

I came to see Dr.Kubek for C5-C6 disc herniation. I had disc replacement surgery done by him I believe he is an excellent surgeon. I also like that he is very thorough with his explanation of injury.

Dr. Kubeck is an incredible surgeon! I was involved in a motor vehicle accident in 2017 and suffered a cervical spine injury as a result. Dr. Kubeck did not rush to operate on me, but rather tried a less invasive approach. I was involved in every aspect of my care and I wanted surgery to be a last resort only. I work as a critical care nurse and I was having great difficulty performing my job tasks. Unfortunately, due to the compression of my spinal cord, surgery was warranted. I must mention that Dr. Kubeck has incredible bed side manners as well-something that is hard to find in a surgeon of Dr. Kubecks caliber. I had 2 cervical disks replaced by Dr. Kubeck in August 2019. I have a tiny incision and was able to move my neck side to side the same day as my surgery. My range of motion is incredible-I had very limited range of motion since my accident. I am now 6 weeks post surgery and I am completely pain free. Thank you Dr. Kubeck for giving me my life back!!

When I first met Dr. Kubeck I was in tremendous pain down my arm to my fingers. I have 2 pinch nerves in my spine. After test he said I needed surgery and promised me I would be pain free when I woke up -he was a man of his word, I have been pain free since my surgery 12/18/18. I was very happy with my surgery experience to repair my spine. Where would you find a doctor that would help you out of the bathroom? That's what Dr. Kubeck did for me. His nurse Veronica was extremely kind and always available to answer my questions or complete more of my paperwork. I would go back to Dr. Kubeck and his firm if I ever have any other problems.

Dr Kubeck did a marvelous job on my spine. I had stage 4 cancer with metastases to the bones and spine 10 years ago. He took out the cancerous spine and did spinal fusion. He did a minimally invasive procedure. I had smaller incision and scar than usual and had no lingering pain nor loss of function after recovery. He was out-of -network from my insurance but was kind enough to see me at his office -gratis. God bless this surgeon!

My name is Michael i had neck surgery done on 12/26/2018 by Dr Kubeck, He is amazing Doctor and what a great bed side manner Dr Kubeck has. Dr Kubeck made sure everything was explained and how the whole procedure would work and also what to expect. I couldn't be "HAPPIER" i have minimal pain and up and around after only a month and a half. Dr Kubeck in my opinion is one of the best surgeons i have been to and i have had 10 major surgeries in 15 years!!!! Thank You Dr Kubeck for "EVERYTHING"!!!!

Neck and shoulders reached the pain threshold of 9 and my Physical Therapist Tom Puckhaber & Dr. Michael Yu recommended Dr. J. Kubeck. I also have a friend who works at Capital Health in Mercer County. She asked the doctors who should I go to and they strongly recommend Dr. J. KubeK. He lived up to all the recommendations & more; comfortable with information procedure . Lindsay is outstanding in what she does, along with the rest of the staff. Have more good things but not enough space.
