In Their Own Words.

“You have all greatly changed my life for the better, and I appreciate your painstaking work on my behalf.”

“Dr Bari did focused ultrasound on me yesterday. The results are astounding! He & his team couldn't have been nicer & more helpful. I'm looking forward to doing the other side.”

“I had essential or familial tremor for about 30 years. It got worse and worse over the last 6 years to where it pretty much made it impossible for me to paint, sew, put on eye makeup, cut up stuff or stir and cook. I basically felt like I was in a blender all day long. Since my focused ultrasound procedure with Dr. Bari my tremor on the right side is completely gone. As an added bonus my head tremor is gone as well. Even my neighbors, who did not know I had the procedure ask me where my tremor went. I am able to do all the stuff I could not do anymore. Needless to say, I highly recommend it.”

“Dr Bari and Dr Menezes at UCLA Neurology are a talented, dynamic, efficient and caring team and they helped my quality of life immensely resulting from DBS surgery for Essential Tremor. I'm a concept artist for international architectural projects and my increasing tremors were disabling as I struggled to counter the effects. DBS surgery was recommended. The surgery experience was AMAZING. After activation, my tremors are completely undetectable when my generator is activated. I highly recommend anyone with symptoms that seem untenable - and DBS is recommended for you - let Dr. Bari carefully show you some options and help you choose the most appropriate therapy. You'll be in great hands for sure and afterwards you may feel like me - experiencing a miraculous recovery from a severely disabling movement disorder.”

“Dr Bari and his wonderful team treated my right hand essential tremors with MRgFUS on August 22nd. The results were immediate and life changing. I can not say enough positive things about the entire team at UCLA. I live in Arizona and I am so happy that I chose to have the procedure at UCLA. I was able to eat soup at the airport before flying home, something I haven't done in years!! Dr. Bari was kind, caring and respectful. I never even had to ask for another warm blanket. I highly recommend contacting Dr. Ausaf Bari at UCLA.”

“I had deep brain stimulation surgery (DBS). Dr. Bari and his team handled my surgeries with great success. I am now a huge fan of Dr. Bari and his team!”

“I suffered for years with severe lower back pain and had many attempts at medical treatment, e.g., epidurals, PT, pain medicine, etc. Nothing really worked. I was referred to Dr Bari by my pain management/anesthesiologist for examination. Dr Bari performed a spinal cord stimulator surgical procedure that was beyond successful. Though the recovery was not easy, I was told it could take 6-8 months for full recovery. Well today I'm extremely grateful to Dr Bari and his team. I no longer have any pain and don't even use my cane. I feel like a new man. Thanks”

“Dr. Bari changed my life, to say the least. I have suffered severely intractable epilepsy for nearly 7 years with an average of 9-10 seizures daily. After meeting with Dr. Bari in November '22, my first neurosurgery was scheduled. After my case was discussed at a surgical conference, the next step was to move forward with an anterior right Temporal Lobectomy and Amygdalohippocampectomy. Dr. Bari was extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful, and confident in the success of this surgery. I am still recovering from surgery, but I am thrilled to share that for the first time since 2016, my post-op EEG results did NOT DETECT ANY SEIZURES! Dr. Bari and his team are wonderful, thoughtful, comforting, and considerate. My biggest fear became the most life-changing experience in my life. I am eternally grateful.”

“Dr. Bari is an exceptional neurosurgeon in every area, from the level of his expertise to the quality of care he delivers to his patients. A true asset to UCLA and all the patients he treats. My mother underwent a major procedure at UCLA and Dr. Bari and his team made the whole daunting process appear so effortless and manageable, shrinking my fears and anxieties away with comprehensive, step-by-step explanations of the process and ongoing support. Outstanding patient care and bedside manner. Couldn't ask for more from a doctor, team and hospital and I feel so fortunate my mother received such excellent world class care.”

“Dr Bari and his staff are wonderful! I had horrible pain from my schwannoma (nerve sheath tumor) on my leg. After surgery, my pain is gone! Dr Bari is an excellent surgeon, thorough and thoughtful. His staff was very attentive to my questions and follow-up. I am so grateful for Dr Bari!”

“I was recently diagnosed with a rare condition and required surgery to remove a nerve sheath tumor. I was so relieved when I learned that Dr. Bari is an expert in this type of surgery. I had my surgery three weeks ago and my experience throughout my consultations and then the surgery mirrored that recollection. Dr. Bari is patient, completely present and responsive, knowledgeable, thorough and yes, kind. On the day of surgery seeing his eyes above his mask immediately put me at ease. I felt immediate relief from the nerve pain I was consistently feeling and Dr. Bari was able to completely remove the (benign!) tumor. I highly recommend Dr. Bari and his entire team.”
