    How was your appointment with Dr. Mintzer?

    Sep 25, 2018
    Hopeless, having been through a battery of tests, having unsuccessfully tried the older epilepsy drugs, having been effectively given up upon and then trying to map out a life living with uncontrolled seizures, I luckily met Dr. Mintzer. Now seizure free, and fully functional, I cannot thank the doctor enough; I fully recommend him, and encourage others looking for an excellent, caring, dedicated, and accomplished neurologist to give the good doctor a chance.

    A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
