MedStar Health Spine Center at MedStar Union Memorial Hospital

"Dr. Lemma was amazing. He took the time to explain everything to me and never made me feel rushed. Not to mention, he fit me in into his busy schedule within a week of my phone call. He came highly recommended and it's not hard to see why. Paula, who works with Dr Lemma, was beyond fantastic as well. I needed to go to a second doctor for a consult about a cortisone shot, and she went above and beyond to call around for me and help me get in with the first appointment she could. I couldn't recommend this office/practice more."

"Dr. Lemma did a wonderful and very successful procedure on my lower back. He's very kind and thorough in explaining the proecedure and the recovery. i'm not back to walking my 2+ miles a day in short order. Prior to my surgery I was unable to walk more than 3 tenths of a mile due to my pain. Two days after surgery I was walking 10-15 minutes and a time and increase it daily with no back pain. The numbness in legs was gone! I have had a complete recovery and have gotten my life back Thank you Dr. Lemma!"

"I had a great experience from start to finish. The staff are very professional and welcoming. Dr. Julie Hoang is phenomenal. I would recommend her to any who needs care,"

"Very efficient and quick service. The Patient care I received was excellent. From the Radiologist to the attending Assistant their attention was on taking care of my medical needs. My attending Physician was outstanding. Dr Moatz listened, diagnosed and referred me to Physical therapy. My entire experience was excellent."

"Upon entering the spine center, the receptionist at the desk was very friendly and welcomed me. I sat down and was called to go back for x-rays in less than five minutes. My appointment started on time. Dr. Asdourian was so pleasant and professional. His assessment was very thorough. He took the time to show me all of my x-rays, and pointed out the problems that were clearly visible. Then he discussed various interventions for my condition and made sure I comprehended everything. I highly recommend doctor Dr. Asdourian."

"Dr.Lemma explained what would be done in my upcoming surgery in a way I had a very good understanding of the procedure. His assistant Clandra Jackson was exceptional in informing me of what I needed to do to prepare for my surgery."

"Dr. Zan Naseer couldn't have been nicer, explained everything thoroughly. Showed my daughter and I her X-rays and explained in detail about the curvature of her spine. I would highly recommend him and would consider seeing him myself if the need should ever arise."
