            Dr Dimar is an excellent physician/ surgeon- my humble opinion is he the the very best !!I came to see him with a pseudarthrosis of the lumbar that had gone undiagnosed by two other surgeons. Dr Dimar not only listened to what I was telling him but spotted the problem within seconds of looking at the MRI (the same MRI another surgeon looked at two weeks prior)His expertise and attention to detail are why I am able to walk today!! Not only is Dr Dimar outstanding but his entire team is as well . Everyone from the receptionists to the nurses and interns/fellows were of the highest caliber. Nortons has something very special and rare in this team, they represent the very best in the industry. Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to praise they.

            Dr. John Dimar is the reason why recovery has been as successful as it has, due to my incomplete spinal cord injury. Dr. Dimar was the surgeon who performed the surgery the evening I crashed. Dr. Dimar is hands down the best spinal surgeon on earth. No other surgeon could have done a better job than Dr. Dimar. Dr. Dimar does not sugar coat what needs to be said, he tells you in an efficient manor, and nothing is left to be confused. His guidance, advice, and expertise is a blessing when you have an injury such as mine. Norton's has the best spinal surgeon on staff and that is Dr. Dimar.
