Dr. Steven Blazar, MD

This Doctor ruined my back I had surgery over a year ago and still can’t walk! Now I need more surgery to correct his mistakes!!’

I would recommend family members and friends to dr. BLAZAR. HE HAS been my dr. For over 20 yrs. He treated my knee, spinal surgery on my neck and treated my lower back just recently. Always made me feel great. Answer all my questions . He's the bests .Thank you Dr.Blazar for everything you done for me. You're truly a blessing.

I have been a patient of Dr Blazar for the past 9 years,he is absolutely one of the finest and brilliant spine surgeon in RI.He is very knowledgeable,thorough,brilliant,professional and just spot on with his medical opinion/treatment and management.He was able to fix a HUGE mess other Doctor caused to my back,if not for him I don’t know what my situation would be right now.Dr Blazar has a great bed side manner,answers every questions/ concerns clearly and takes his time explaining.He is patient-first, he LISTENS to his patient, and makes you feel confident that you are in a good hands and less anxious.He tries all methods of pain relief before suggesting surgery and does not put his patient through unnecessary tests/procedures. Besides being an excellent surgeon and a caring physician,Dr Blazar is a fine human being, compassionate and treats his patient with utmost respect.I would highly recommend him and I can’t thank him enough for the good care he’s done for me throughout the years

I had an appt w/Dr Blazar for the first time in four years. He treated my problem at that time and I never needed further treatment. After reading some of these reviews I thought, he must have chg’d over the years. I was happy to see that he hadn’t chg’d at all. He was so kind, professional and as patient with me as he was four yrs ago. I would definately recommend Dr Blazar.

Had appointments with Dr. Blazer and Back Surgery 2weeks ago he is very attentive and compassionate, all went well and healing fine would recommend him to all. Can’t thank him enough for all he’s done for me. Thank you Doc!!!!!!

Found him to be arrogant, with an overinflated ego. (I refer to it as the God syndrome) which he is most certainly not. No respect for the patient . Less than 10 min spent . Would ask a question than put up his hand ok that’s enough said , answer what I ask u only. So after X-ray yes u have si joint problem, could try injection, to which I said yes being in terrible pain . So he said my staff will set it up and call u. No big surprise no one contact me at all 2. Weeks ago. Thank God after reading reviews no way would have him as a dr let alone surgeon. Whole visit total waste of time. Have a new doctor now very pleased so far already had mri. Don’t waste your time or money . Unless u want to be talked down to , and your questions not answered . Very poor patient care to say the least no compassion for someone that came to him for help. A real winner If there was a 0 that’s what I thought of him. Definitely would not recommend. Rather see a DVM, I’ve seen more compassion there.

I had an SI FUSION in August and after two years I’m out of pain. Dr Blazar was very through, Compassionate, never rushed my visit. I am a registered nurse and Dr Blazar is one of the only MD’S I’ve had the pleasure of knowing and would work for him in a second.

At 46 yrs old I was virtually paralyzed with a significant spinal issue. After a 6.5 hour surgery and a years worth of rehab, I was completely cured, although nothing came easy. Being cured allowed me to achieve more both personally and professionally. I owe that to the brilliance of Dr. Steven Blazar. Even now at 70 years old, I walk 2 miles every morning and count my blessings. There is no possible way I can thank him enough. To me, he is a god.

Dr. Blazar (and his office staff) treated me wonderfully! He took all the time I needed to answer my questions, and I feel great after my lumbar surgery! He has an excellent bedside manner, confidence and a great sense of humor that made me feel less anxious. I’d recommend him to anyone.

Just had an appointment with Dr Blazar. He was fantastic! Took us on time. Was so compassionate and professional! So thankful for his help! He is so truely one of the best Doctors we had ever seen! So thankful! He’s amazing!

Dr. Blazar is amazing...took me from agonizing pain to pain free after a complex back surgery.

Appalling bedside manner seems to actually be his best quality. I was foolish enough to trust the referral to him as a surgeon. I suffer horrific post surgical complications 10 years later. Worst experience of my life

I walked out of his office and will not be returning. Enough said. Doesn't even deserve one star.

I was operated on in 2003 with a pinched nerve and protruding disc. At first I enjoyed his humor till I had questions and realized he never answers you he just makes everything into a joke! After surgery I have severe back and leg pain (didn't have much leg pain before) my foot was burning and my 2 toes on my left foot were numb along with the left side of my left leg. When I went to see him he told me the burning was normal and would go away. After a few months of it just getting worse along with sciatica that never went away for even 1 minute of relief. I went back to dr. Blazer who offered to do another surgery but I declined, I went to specialist in Boston who told me I have nerve damage in my left leg that wasn't there before. I'm now permanently disabled had to retire from a great job at 34 yrs old and ended up just staying in my home for years in pain, only leaving for doctor's appointments I'm now on pain management medication for the rest of my life...

Dr Blazar completed a disc replacement/fusion for me 12/2018. He is very professional & his light humor helped me to overcome any anxiety I felt going into surgery. He took the time to explain in laymen’s terms so I understood exactly what the process looked like & what to expect in the aftermath. I highly recommend Dr Steven Blazar to anyone in search of a well qualified Orthopedic Surgeon. He is second to none.

Terrible Dr. thank god another Dr could repair his mistakes

Had a Very Positive experience. I found Dr Blazar to be outstanding with surgery and spending the time time to carefully diagnosis the problem. Dr Blazar carefully explained all my issues as well as all the options available. Office staff was extremely pleasant and helpful, always returning calls in a timely manner with all the information requested. I found Dr Blazar to be very attentive and helpful with resolving issue. I would definitely recommend Dr Blazar : he is certai

Unfeeling, arrogant. Doesnt take time to discuss anthing. But his staff was excellent. When i would call his secretary Sue...would call me back right away. She was probably the only one who cared about how much pain i was in. His MA was helpful at all.

Not only is Dr. Blazar rude but his secretary Sue is even worse. She is not professional, not helpful and over all not compassionate to the patients. I would not recommend this doctor or the office.

This doctor is rude he will operate on anyone even if they dont need it . He has no compassion for people in pain. I had two surgery with him I will not go back i now have pain management doctors and have to see a neurosurgeon to correct the mess he made.
