  I first saw Dr Lofti in 2015 and I was in extreme pain related to a neck injury. Dr Lofti recommended alternative workout plans and treatment to help with my pain though I wanted surgery. He recommended against surgery and I'm happy I listened. A year later my pain levels have decreased and I am stronger. I'm happy he listened and provided a thorough assessment of my conditions. He is not a surgeon to "cut" just for the sake of doing so. Dr Lofti is an utmost professional.

  When I first came here the pain in my back was almost unbearable, the suggested procedure gave me almost instant gratification, I'm extremely happy with my experience and my doctor, Dr. Lofti was very patient with me and I appreciated that.

  I was extremely reluctant about having surgery on my back. Being a single mom of 2 very active boys, I struggled through PT for almost 2 month. Dr. Lotfi talked with me about surgery for the second time and he new my concerns. I woke up from the surgery pain free, minimal pain from the actual surgery. I was back to work in a week.

  Dr. Lofti is AMAZING! I had back problems for 7 years and the last episode I had was the worst. I expressed my concerns with Dr. Lofti and we came up with a treatment plan so I didn't have to have surgery. The treatment was a success and I hope not to be back for a very long time (no offense Dr. Lofti!). I can't say thank you enough!

  I have had numerous surgeries in the past. While this surgery appeared to be the highest risk surgery I have had - Dr. Lotfi and the staff at NOVA Orthopedic & Spine Care instilled the confidence I needed to make my decision to have the surgery performed by no one else. The surgery was an instant success and less than 3 weeks after surgery I feel so much better. Outstanding bedside manners by all involved in explaining the process and answering all of my questions made a tremendous difference. I would not recommend going anywhere else. - John Caycedo

  Dr. Lotfi was very friendly and knowledgable. He has worked with me since January of 2016. He assessed the situation, and provided me with excellent care. The situation called for Epidural Injections. These were frightening but provided temporary relief. I ultimately had surgery to correct the problem in November of 2016. I was initially worried to have surgery but Lotfi reassured that everything would be better after. The morning of surgery he was there ready to get started, and answer any questions I had. I was up and walking that day of surgery and have been making progress since. The sciatica pain is gone and I would highly recommend Dr. P. Lotfi.

  Dr. Lotfi has treated me for two different spinal issues. I am not exaggerating to say that I can walk today because of his skill. He has my trust and I give him the highest possible recommendation.

  I began my search for a physician to help me with back pain which was getting progressively worse. I tried chiropractors for about two years. I finally decided to see a spinal surgeon. I went on line and researched a number of specialist. Dr Lofti was my choice because of a number revies I had read about his work. I only wish I had chosen him sooner. Great outcome.

  I have nothing but praise for Dr. Lofti and the NOVA staff. He performed a Total Disc Replacement procedure on me and it was a smooth process. Within 2 weeks I was back to my normal routine, yes, with some restrictions but pain free. If you are having severe neck pain and arm numbness go see Dr. Lofti he is astute in the most advanced procedures in treating neck and back pain.

  Dr. Lotfi and his staff have always been very helpful and kind. I had back surgery and had heard horror stories about what it would be like. However, I feel I had a great doctor and staff to help me along and I feel so much better as days go by. Thanks Dr. Lotfi and staff for everything.

  Dr. Lotfi is wonderful. I had a terrible summer, I was in pain for two months ( insurance refused a request for MRI). I called Dr. Lotfi office after my MRI was done, I got an appointment in the following 4 days and we scheduled a surgery the following week. Went back to work a week after my surgery. I'm so thankful to be walking again and pain free. Thank you Dr. Lofti

  Sep 12, 2016

  This is a no-nonsense practice. Dr. Lotfi made a couple of suggestions for my treatment, but when those didn't work he went straight to suggesting surgery. It was the best decision. I would do it again in a heart beat. There is no reason to suffer with pain if there is a solution for it. Thanks to the entire team for looking after me and what would be the best care in my situation.

  I wouldn't trust my spine to just anyone. Dr Lotfi exceeded my expectations. I had surgery May 24 2016. I'm doing great and can walk with no problem, which I could not do before. I have had rods and bone fusion; if you need this surgery I highly recommend Dr Lotfi and one else.

  Overall experience was excellent. I had very successful neck surgery by Dr Lotfi more than 10 years ago, so When I had a lower back problem, he was the only ortho surgeon I wanted to see. I'm very happy that I did. Another very successful surgery, and I feel so much better than before! Thank You to Dr Lotfi and staff and the Sentara surgical team. I could not have asked for better care.

  I'm absolutely ecstatic about Dr. Lotfi and NOVA Orthopedic and Spine Care! When I came here for treatment for lower back pain I was in excruciating pain and it was difficult to stand up straight or walk. After an extensive examination and review of my medical history and current condition Dr. Lotfi was very strategic with developing his diagnosis and determining his course of treatment for me. He used every option available to treat me while avoiding surgery. Once it was determined surgical treatment was my best option he proceeded with careful thought and successfully operated. Now I'm about 90 days post op and I'm 150% better! I can't thank Dr. Lotfi enough for caring for and treating me. He made me feel trusting and peaceful throughout this entire process. I will be eternally grateful. I thank God for leading me to this practice and for blessing Dr. Lotfi with the talent and compassion he has for helping heal me!

  I consider myself a new patient to Dr. Lofti because I had not seen him before prior to him being recommended by Dr. Layfield for my lower back pain. Dr. Oskuyian recommended Dr. Layfield for my neck and shoulder pain. So far I have been very impressed with the efficiency and professionalism of Drs. Layfield and Lofti and especially the Front Desk staff. They appear to know their jobs and they go about doing it in a very professional, but nice way. The procedure that Dr. Lofti performed on me was much more terrifying in my mind than it actually was when he performed it. He and his assistant were very comforting and calming during the procedure. I will happily continue to use both Dr. Lofti and Dr. Layfield for my orthopedic needs and recommend them to my family and friends.
