Good
I had an excellent experience with Dr. Furey. He is a top surgeon and I was very pleased with my outcome. Explanation of my recovery was explained very clearly at my follow up appointments. I really want to discuss my experience with my 4 day hospital stay but I never received a questionnaire on my experience as a patient at Ahuja
Fantastic Back Surgeon, great listener and communicator, I trust him fully, excellent in every way, a great service to UH!
Dr Furey explained my options very clearly
Dr. Furey and his staff were beyond my expectations. I left having complete knowledge of my medical condition. He gave me all the answers I needed to go forward with surgery.
Great doctor
It was a team effort between my back doctor and my knee doctor.
Dr. Furey gave me a very clear answer to my basic question: Could my situation -- as described by recent MRI -- likely be improved by surgery?
Dr. Furey was very kind and informative.
This entire experience was excellent and I appreciate that.
So helpful
Very good provider
Dr. Furey and his team are excellent. Very thorough - very reassuring. Can't say enough great things about him and his team!!!

Dr. Furey is outstanding. He explains everything very well and I have the utmost confidence in his knowledge and ability to perform surgery.

He was very professional and competent. ***
Overall my experience was good; ***
Wow!!! One of the best visits ever.
Fantastic!
Very Excellent Physician and a very good examination.
Dr. Furey has always treated me with the utmost respect
Dr Furey is the best. He operated on my lower back years ago. Back then he was also a very concerned dr and explained everything so you would understand it. Would not let another dr touch my back other than Dr Furey.
Excellent initial experience in this providers office in all aspects
Dr. Furey did surgery on me 9 years ago. I am having a similar problem and he is my first choice for this type of care. Explains everything clearly and calmly.
This was my first visit with a UH physician. I was very pleased.
Dr. Fury has a good bedside manner. He was very specific in his evaluation of my condition. He gave me the option to choose my treatment and did not force me into an immediate decision. My appointment with him was a very good experience.
I just felt he really was interested in preforming a surgery since it wasn't a major surgery and recommended a facility closer to my house for another consult.
This was my first appointment with Dr. Furey and I was very impressed with him.
Dr Furey was friendly and professional, he took the time to talk , bring up my imaging and review with me my problems and what is needed to resolve my issues and what my options are. Would definitely refer him to friends and family who have back issues.
Dr. Furey is an amazing physician. He was understanding of my concerns and explained things in a way that I was able to understand. He took the time to answer my questions In detail without me feeling rushed.
The doctor is excellent I had recommended him and I will continue recommending DoctvFury

At UH, we disclose practitioner and their family members’ ownership and intellectual property rights that are or in the process of being commercialized. In addition, we disclose payments to employed practitioners of $5,000 or more from companies with which the practitioners interact as part of their professional activities. These practitioner-industry relationships assist in developing new drugs, devices and therapies and in providing medical education aimed at improving quality of care and enhancing clinical outcomes. At the same time, UH understands that these relationships may create a conflict of interest. In providing this information, UH desires to assist patients in talking with their practitioners about industry relationships and how those relationships may impact their medical care.
UH practitioners seek advance approval for certain new industry relationships. In addition, practitioners report their industry relationships and activities, as well as those of their immediate family members, to the UH Office of Outside Interests annually. We review these reports and implement management plans, as appropriate, to address conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with medical research, clinical care and purchasing decisions.
