Fast, friendly and easy to talk to.
Excellent surgen and great bedside manner very nice and listens to your concerns
Dr Mesiwala was very professional very knowledgeable and gave the best recommendation for the injuries that I have and he was a very pleasant man to talk to and he seems to be very genuine when it comes to caring for patients
Optimistic
This was the meeting with Doctor Mesiwala and I found him to be very nice and he answered all my questions and concerns. He made me feel very comfortable with my upcoming surgery
Dr Mesiwala explained my situation thoroughly. He listened to all my questions. I appreciated his knowledge and his kindness.
I don’t normally leave reviews, but this was honestly one of the nicest groups of people I’ve been to. From the receptionist to the doctor, they made me feel like they cared.
A Very Patient And Kind Doctor.
My husband was operated on his back by Dr Mesiwala 15 years ago, total success!! Now I need surgery and wouldn’t go to anyone else but Dr Mesiwala. Very professional, knowledgeable, approachable and humble.and the whole staff at Newport is amazing!!!
Office visit nor rushed so was able to have the doctor answer all my questions. Gave me options for my treatment. Dr Mesiwala did my cervical spine surgery in 2011 and it turned out great. The only problem was my vocal cords were affected but I knew going in 1% of patients could develop that problem after that surgery. I have full confidence in Dr Mesiwala’s ability to do my back surgery now with success.
Dr. Mesiwala implanted a neuro-stimulator in my cervical spine seven (7) years ago and it worked perfectly. On July 18,2025 I had my unit replaced with a new battery and I continue to experience pain relief. I highly recommend Dr. Mesiwala for any type of spinal surgery. I give him 5 stars!!
Excellent Dr.
I really liked Dr Mesiwala and staff.
Amazing !!!
He was very cordial. Explained my situation about my surgeries very clear and took his time with no rush. Thank you Dr. Messiwala for your time. Sarah
Excelente servicios y atención
Excellent, good experience.
outstanding bedside manners, willing to listen to get the full picture of the patients complaints and injury. Looking forward to having Dr. Mesiwala Treat and heal my injuries. Thank you again.
Professional my questions were answered in terms I understood.
At my second follow-up, Dr. Mediwala once again checked my incision area thoroughly. He patiently answered all of my many questions and made sure I didn’t have any additional concerns. He was very pleasant, attentive, and reassuring throughout the visit. I truly appreciate his care and professionalism.

I was very pleased with the initial consultation I had with Dr. Mesiwala. The office is clean and tasteful, the staff very proficient and nice, and the doctor himself, approachable and good at communicating a plan of action. Highly recommend!
Good doctor
Dr. Mesiwala operated on my back and I'm recuperating at this time. He is one of the finest surgeons. Thank You, Dr. Mesiwala.

BUT for my 9-10 pain levels he wants to put a stimulator in my back. Told me it will stop my pain around 85 % I was always scared of this device, but I feel safe with the Doctor. I just want this pain gone so I can have my life back again. If you want a nice, caring, Surgeon pick Dr. Mesiwala. Hes the best, and will help you.
I am an existing patient and Dr. Mesiwala implanted a Neurostimulator in me in 2018. I’m returning to have a new battery placed in my unit. I trust Dr. Mesiwala completely and I know this will be as easy as it was before. I recommend Dr. Mesiwala to anyone who needs this specialized treatment.
Good over all
I went in for a follow up from a previous exploratory surgery. I was expecting to hear what Dr Mesiwala had mentioned to me earlier but was somewhat disappointed when he said the tentative surgery would not be suitable. However, he did suggest another type of surgery that might be more promising. With that in mind the appointment was worth going to.
Dr. Messiwala attended to my 96 year old mother and took very good care of her. We'll always be grateful for the professionalism, patience, and gentleness he and his staff showed to our family, and most of all her. Thank
