Dr. Garcia is Awesome - He quickly reviewed my records / MRI and listen to all my back issues. I have had Spinal issues since for over 30 years from some initial surgery in 1991. He recommended several course of actions. I plan to continue to follow up with over the next few years. His Team was exceptional and Front Office Outstanding. Within one day, all the follow appointments were scheduled. Thank You

Doctor could not get MRI disk to open so he just went ahead and prescribed physical therapy without even seeing it. He said he would view it later and give me a call if different, but I really do not think he will. I felt as if he dismissed me as just another old lady with arthritis.

Dr. Javier Garcia-Bengochea is the epitome of professionalism, not only exhibiting deep expertise but also empathy and accessibility. He is ably assisted by two other professionals that extend the impact of his services--Mr. Edward Saleh and Ms. Jodacie Moses. Together, the three are an exceptional team, and I have been very fortunate to be the beneficiary of their successful care. I just had my 4-month post-op conference, and thus far the results have well exceeded expectations. In 2005, I had an unsuccessful operation performed by a Harvard-educated orthopedic surgeon in my home town, who headed a prestigious practice in my home town (not Jacksonville) and also ministered to our professional sports team. I literally spent 15 years looking for the right surgeon to fix my failed procedure--even traveling to the Hospital for Special Surgery in NYC, which I am told is "Mecca" in the orthopedic world. Fortunately, through two friends I learned of Dr. Garcia-Bengochea and his unique neuro-surgical approach to my problem. The week before my Lyerly surgery, I was reporting 7's and 8's on the pain scale. Today, I'm only experiencing 1's and 2's. What more can I say?

Kudos to Dr. Javier Garcia and his PA Edward Saleh. It took years of pain before I said yes to back surgery -- first an ACDF, then a lumbar procedure to take the pressure off my spinal cord. I couldn't have made a better choice than Dr. Garcia and his PA, who work together hand in glove. It's been said before, but this surgeon is also an artist, taking great care to create vanishing incisions as well as exceptional results. At 7 weeks following ACDF and 4 weeks following lumbar surgery, I'm moving better than I ever thought possible. My energy is returning, most of my pain is history, and I seem to have shed 20 years.

Dr. Garcia-Bengochea is an outstanding surgeon. He performed a lumbar fusion using ray cages on my husband in 1998, and it was like getting a new husband! Now, many years later, husband needs another surgery (or two) and wouldn’t have anyone but Dr. Garcia for his doctor. The whole practice is user-friendly, sensitive and efficient and a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend.

Better communication for appt cancellation. On Aug 19th my husband had a 10:30 appt with Dr Garcia. We traveled 3 1/2 hrs for the appt, waited over 1hr in the office before we were told the appt with Dr Garcia had been canceled. All 3 contact numbers were verified and there was no recd of a call or message from Lyerly. No notification in the patient portal, appt was confirmed on Mon via automated system.The office adm insisted the scheduler ( Michelle) called and left a message. We love the service and quality of care provided by Dr Garcia and his PA. However, cancellation notification system is poor and unacceptable.

I have been a patient of Lyerly Neurosurgery for over 16 years. The staff has always been very courteous, accommodating, & professional. Dr. Javier Garcia-Bengochea is an incredibly skilled neurosurgeon. When I first met him I could barely walk lacking both balance & lower body strength and in much discomfort. He at first correctly diagnosed my primary needs and “very successfully” performed a thoracic spinal fusion (T10-T12). Eight years later I developed worsening symptoms of right side sciatic nerve impingement with lower back pain and right leg numbness. At this time Dr. Garcia decided to decompress 4 levels of my lumbar spine with minimal invasiveness. Both times following post operative healing along with physical therapy the results have been nothing short of amazing. He has “literally saved the quality of my life” & with much confidence I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a neurosurgical evaluation.

She is fantastic about getting back and helping but not even knowing if she is truly getting the message is uncomfortable to say the least.

Dr Garcia Bengochea is excellent; his medical assistant is very helpful. We had an awful experience as the provided information gave incorrect information as to which garage to park. Secondly the doors to Weaver Tower were locked so I walked over a mile to finally get into the building. Then the excursion to get to Weaver Tower was a third expedition. It took about an hour to finally reach the correct registration desk. Most disappointing is that no administrative people with whom I spoke gave a hoot that there was an issue. My blood pressure was up to 175 so pls realize I was stressed. This is how a patient with spine issues was treated. Medically the experience was fine; administratively, it was a nightmare and staff blew me off!

Lyerly Neurosurgical is a well-balanced group of professionals who addressed my particular medical issues and methodically walked me through the processes and activities I would be involved in. This was not my first surgery with this group and this most recent one (3/13/2020) follows the path of past work. The level of empathy to my issues made it easy to get through the process. The individuals within the system have effectively explained and guided me through the pre-and post surgery segments.

Dr. Garcia is an absolute genius with a wonderful bedside manner. If you appreciate science, you could sit in his office and listen to him talk for days about how he makes his decisions and what he’s going to do and what he thinks will work and will not work. He does not try to push you into superfluous surgeries that you don’t need. Many younger neurosurgeons (especially) will push for the most expensive procedure possible just to make money, either because they need to pay off student loans or because they are young and feel like they are supposed to live “the dream”. I just don’t see Dr. Garcia ever having been like this even when he was fresh out out of residency/fellowship because he is a scientist and academician before anything else. I truly believe he would practice medicine the exact same way with his first patient, no differently as he does today. It will be a travesty to the community when he retires. That means I believe he is someone that is always working to get better at his craft and it’s really amazing to watch and listen to him as a two time SUCCESFUL patient with different disc herniation’s from old athletic injuries. With regard to Dr. Garcia it’s like he could care less about Anything, except the patient getting better. I believe he looks at each Case like a puzzle he hopes to be able to solve. Listening to him speak is like a work of art. In another lifetime, I think he could be a grandmaster at chess! It is truly an honor to speak to him that’s how highly I think of his intellect his skill set. Edward is very thorough and helpful . Really everyone I interacted with was excellent.

Dr. Garcia was very kind and I felt very comfortable knowing I was in good hands. Dr.Naserri told me he was sending me to the "BEST Neurosurgeon in Jacksonville", Dr. Garcia.lived up to the name! He made sure he had the best people working with him during surgery and introduced me to all of them. He made sure my pain was controlled during my hospital stay and at home. I am going to have my son make an appt with Dr. Garcia as soon as he moves closer for his spine. I only want the best spine group for my family! Bonnie Marron

I had a very positive experience with Dr. Garcia. Several doctor friends of mine told me that he was the best spinal surgeon in Jacksonville, and that I could have complete confidence in what he recommended. He did not recommend surgery at this time and I am more than happy to follow his recommendation. He also is a very nice person. My wife accompanied me to the appointment and we both enjoyed getting to know him.

The care given is first class and we have always been treated very nicely by Dr. Javier Garcia's staff...Doc himself is a hero to me as he has put two six inch rods in my lower back and a plate in my neck....He has always tried to use surgery as the final step in a process that tries other methods first and this gives me great comfort....I am more than likely going to have to have more surgery down the line, but Doc is determined to try other methods first to see if any of those will work....I do know this.........If and when I have to have more back or neck surgery, Dr. Javier Garcia will be the only surgeon I want to operate on me...He's the best...

Dr Garcia simply knows what he is doing. My long history of back and lower extremity pain no longer a mystery that I just live with. After several temporary, ultimately failed, insurance recommended interventions by other providers, Dr Garcia’s surgical intervention of my lower spine has improved my quality of life exponentially. I’m only post op day 3 and results are phenomenal In addition, as a bonus, the office staff and mid level practitioners are also efficient with continuous communication and concern for my care. Thank a You Lyerly Neurosurgical Group for such professionalism and expertise.
