Awake Spine

After several weeks of physical therapy, traction, and chiropractic work I decided to have a consult with Dr. Sharan. He reviewed my MRI and concluded it would be best for me to have ACDF surgery to correct a pinched nerve that was causing severe pain and numbness down my left arm. He and his staff are very kind and went over everything with me and answered all my questions. Even when I got cold feet, he took the time to review everything with me again and I went through with the surgery. Almost three months later, I am pain-free and only have minimal numbness in my thumb. I highly recommend Dr. Sharan and his team if you are suffering from pain.

Thank you for taking away my pain. Thank you for coming to check on me in the hospital after surgery on your day off. May God bless you and all you do. You are a blessing with a gift to heal.

After suffering with (my) neck the past year, I decided to see Dr. Sharan. He is wonderful and I wish I had come in sooner. I'm finally getting the relief I've been looking for. Dr. Sharan is thorough, knowledgeable, and very kind. He also has a great team of professionals working with him.

Dr. Sharan and his team at NJ SPINE AND WELLNESS are hands down the most caring, kind, and compassionate group around. I trust them and I feel confident in my healing journey with them. They truly just want you to feel better and be happy. I highly recommend - you won't be disappointed!

I went in for a consultation for my herniated disk, and Dr. Sharan recommended surgery. He was very comforting and supportive and made sure that I understood what would happen. My herniated disk was terrible and gave me sciatica. After the surgery, I feel great! And after every session of PT, I feel closer to 100%! I could not be happier!

Not enough can be said about Dr. Sharan. A gentleman who explains in layman's terms, answers all of your questions, keeps in touch with his patients on a regular and consistent basis, and expertly fixed a problem that was quickly wrecking my quality of life... And I'm walking without groaning or limping 4 days later. 5 stars doesn't begin to tell the whole story. Thank you all so very much.

I met Dr. Sharan while treating at NJ SPINE AND WELLNESS. I had been suffering with sciatica for many years. After trying and failing different conservative options such as physical therapy and many epidural injections I decided I needed a more effective solution. Dr. Sharan and his staff are very friendly and informative. Dr. Sharan really took his time explaining the procedure as well as his unique technique. Jenn and Bill helped obtain insurance authorization and medical clearance. Since the surgery, I feel great. I’m back at work and getting stronger in PT every day. I would highly recommend Dr. Sharan.

I was in a car accident three years ago and throughout those three years I tried Cortizon shots on my back, physical therapy, chiropractor, and even acupuncture — the pain and symptoms were just getting worse and worse. This summer I decided to have the ACDF surgery with Dr. Sharan. It went great I highly would recommend him to anyone who thinks that some sort of back surgery is what they need to do.

Dr. Sharan did a great job explaining the procedure. I was pain-free instantly after my laminectomy and did not even have to take the pain medication they gave me afterward. I am back to exercising. His staff was very friendly and made the whole process easy.

Dr. Sharan operated on my back to fix a herniated disc that was pushing on my sciatic nerve and was quite painful. Pre-surgery the pain at times was absolutely terrible. Since having the surgery, I have been great and the pain has virtually left my body. The most important thing to know about Dr. Sharan is not only a skilled and competent surgeon, he has such a great ability to calm your anxieties about your injury with kindness and compassion, and really listen to your concerns. He speaks to you about everything you want to consider before having corrective surgery. Never does he rush you away during an appointment, so you always feel important.

NJ Spine and Wellness in Matawan NJ is BY FAR one of the most SUPERIOR places we’ve ever gone for medical treatment. My husband Tommy has been a patient of Dr. Alok Sharan for years. His reputation as an outstanding doctor and surgeon is not overstated. He is the ONLY surgeon we trust without hesitation. So when he transferred to NJ from NY, we followed him over there. We have to commend his ENTIRE team at NJ Spine and Wellness as they’re EQUALLY up to the tasks and standards of Dr. Sharan. They take the time to FULLY and THOROUGHLY address ALL your medical needs. They are truly AMAZING and we’ve grown quite “fond” of them…We can’t thank them enough for ALL they do to help us and HIGHLY RECOMMEND NJ Spine and Wellness in Matawan for your medical needs. You’ll be glad you did.

Dr. Sharan and his staff were exceptional. They spent more than enough time answering my questions, explaining the procedure of my surgery in detail, and made me feel like I was definitely making the right decision to become a patient of theirs. I have no reservations about my surgery next week. In fact, I’m very excited about it.

Dr. Alok takes his time to listen and doesn’t rush you out of the office. He is very knowledgeable and makes you feel comfortable, and confident to take whatever steps are necessary to feel better.
