Dr. Hooman M. Melamed was recently recognized for his work in the January edition of Los Angeles magazine. His extreme dedication and care for his patients, as well as his vast amount of expertise on orthopedic spine surgery, was highlighted by the magazine.

Dr. Melamed was regarded as one of the leading spine doctors in the United States, due to his cutting-edge procedures, specifically his expertise in minimally invasive spine surgery. His patients’ health and interests are his top priority, as he resorts to surgery only when absolutely necessary. His ground-breaking work on orthopedic spine surgery has landed him numerous appearances on shows, such as, “The Doctors” and “Dr. Oz”, where he has been able to share his knowledge about spine-related disorders and their treatment, to a broader audience.

In addition to his knowledge of orthopedic surgery, he was also praised for his non-profit work. His non-profit, Back To You, offers treatment to those who otherwise could not afford it, due to financial limitations. He was inducted to the “Leading Physicians in the World” for his revolutionary work, and in 2013, was awarded the prestigious Patient Choice Award for his wonderful ratings among patients.

    Dr. Melemed is truly the best! He genuinely cares about his patients, and it shows in every aspect of the care he provides. I recently had an outpatient procedure, and I cannot say enough about how impressed I was with the surgery center. …

    Dr. Melamed is an exceptional physician. I initially came to him for my spine concerns, but he took the time to look at the bigger picture, truly listen, and help me find the right resources and specialists for a separate, complex medical condition outside his specialty. …

    I was incapacitated, couldn’t stand, sit or walk. The pain was excruciating. I’ll spare you the diagnosis, but it was serious. I could only lie down with my foot up to reduce the pain. It required EMERGENCY surgery. …

    I want to thank Dr. Melamed for taking great care of me. Dr. Melamed performed a minimally invasive microdiscectomy to free nerve that was being pinched and causing pain in my back and in my leg. Dr. Melamed’s approach is a very conservative, which I very much appreciate. …
