Upon graduating in 1989, he completed his residency in Orthopedic Surgery at the University of Arizona and went on to become a Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon in 1996. Since then Dr. Katzman has focused his career on minimally invasive spinal and laser surgical procedures.As one of the most sought after spinal surgeons in the U.S., Dr. Katzman has spent time throughout his career lecturing and educating other physicians on his highly regarded techniques.

Amazing and informative

My experience with Dr. Katzman was great. He was very personable and then dove right into my results. He explained my back problems in a variety of helpful ways that I would understand. He went into next steps and explained how the team can be of service to me whenever I needed. I felt very secure in his opinion towards my results. He was a very friendly doctor as well!

We are very happy with today's visit with Dr. Katzman and have chosen him to do my husband's surgery

We really liked meeting Dr. Katzman. He asked many questions and took his time to explain my husband's condition. We also like that he offers a minimally invasive procedure. We feel confident in his ability to help my husband's severe back pain and actually look forward to having him do the surgery to correct the problem. His office staff are very friendly and helpful as well. :)

Experienced surgeon, very personable and great listener

Dr Katzman performed L3-L4-L5-S1 spinal laminectomy, facetectomy and my results are very satisfactory. AFter about six weeks, I feel better and he assured me it will keep getting better.
The only problem I have had was post-operative care and follow up. I wish the practice was more cognizant about calling patients after the surgery to follow-up and returning calls. This is even more important when a patient had a post-surgical complications with anesthesia.

My experience so far has been quite pleasant. The doctors and PA have demonstrated a great level of caring and have shown a great ability to listen. They truly show interest in what you feel and try to provide the best recommendations to address any issues or concerns!

Miracle worker

Dr Katzman is rare blend of expert surgeon and compassionate human being. He is expert in state of the art technology and performed difficult 2 level disk replacement in my neck when no other doctor would even attempt. I made rapid and complete recovery within a few weeks. I was able to return to full and normal life and even vigorous exercise! An absolute miracle by a very special surgeon and wonderful man! I am forever thankful!!!!

Life Changing

Prior to being treated by Dr. Katzman, I had debilitating lower back pain. It got so bad, I had a hard time doing daily activities. With his help, I can provide for myself, do the things I want to do without restrictions. I don't know where I'd be without his help.

Amazing! feels younger again!!

I was diagnosed with a severe to critical spinal stenosis in my lumber spine at multiple levels. This condition deprived me of doing my normal activities since 2007 - I could not stand and walk freely even for a 5-10 minutes. In late 2017, I made a decision go for surgery at NJ Spine and Orthopedic. Dr. Katzman and his colleagues performed surgery. Within 2 weeks into my surgery, I am back to my normal life - I can walk over a mile without any issues! Thank you NJ Spine.

Gave me my life back!

I had suffered with extreme low back pain for nearly 20 years. I had been to countless orthopedists, pain management specialists, physical therapy, etc.
Nothing helped. I was told "live and die with it".
Dr. Katzman figured my problem out immediatly.
An L5/S1 disc removal and fusion was done Thursday March 30th, SAME DAY! NO HOSPITAL STAY! Picked me up in the morning and drove me home that night
I was back at my desk at work the very next Thursday!
I feel great now, I say Miracle!
