If you’ve ever experienced nerve issues due to a herniated disc, you know that it can be debilitating and can quickly change your outlook. You’ll see several doctors before you get to a doctor that REALLY knows how to test and diagnose the problem. Dr. Zaman is one of those folks. IMMEDIATELY when he entered the room, I was put at ease. He took the time to ask questions about what I’ve tried, what I’ve experienced, and any medical history that might be pertinent. Following that, he ran several tests that indicated medical issues that I hadn’t even realized. He gave me his opinion, offered me a treatment plan that has been very effective, and most importantly, has always been very empathetic. Some doctors can make you feel rushed and Dr. Zaman never made me feel like he had any other thing to do but to solve my nerve problems. HIGHLY recommend.

I have been visiting your office for a few months now, and I have always felt that Dr. Zaman has had my best interest in mind when it comes to the treatment he administers. He takes the time to explain the course of treatment that he will be using to get me on the path to recovery. I’ve had to endure shots in my back, and he takes the time to explain the process every step along the way to ensure that I understand what is going to happen. I highly recommend him as a someone who is very knowledgeable in his craft and one who is direct and to the point when answering any questions I may have.

— Gloria M.

Dr. Zaman was very pleasant. Getting in to see him was easy, I definitely recommend him.
— Janet B.

I had seen another doctor at a different clinic, and the other doctor didn’t take the time as much as Dr. Zaman did to try and figure out what was wrong with me. I appreciated that because he did the evaluation and actually took the time to look and say we might need an MRI. Dr. Zaman listened and said lets make sure of what we’re looking at. He is very intelligent, I like him very much!
— Rachel H.

Dr. Zaman did a great job in my opinion. Dr. Zaman is definitely customer oriented. He is focused on his profession and how he can effectively apply his knowledge and skills into resolving the issue that I had. His pleasant demeanor readily puts you at ease while he works his craft to determine the root cause underlying the symptoms. Based on our meeting, I feel that I had a great experience.

Dr. Zaman took his time with me, he didn’t bs me, and he suggested the best form of treatment that wasn’t going to be too costly. I will be back If I need to and I have recommended this facility to my friends.
— Jose A.
Dr Zaman has impressed me with his knowledge and professionalism. He gets 5-stars for his ability and willingness to explain and demonstrate test results and conditions. (I loved seeing the MRI in detail.) He provides comprehensive information about treatment options and prognosis. It is very convenient to be able to have some treatment done at the office. His office runs smoothly and they run quite close to scheduled appointment times. The staff is very friendly and competent. One of the best things about the practice is Dr. Zaman’s availability! Patients do not have to wait months for an appointment. I have recommended him to friends.
— Paulette R.
I have suffered for months with severe back pain. My physical therapist recommended Dr. Zaman. I was able to get in fairly quickly. He sent me for X-Ray’s and an MRI, so he could give me an accurate prognosis. After that, with the pictures in hand he explained in detail to me what was going on, what his recommendations would be, and what the future would look like. He was very positive and encouraging. We choose injections. They are working very well, and buying me much needed time before I will need surgery. He is great! I am sad he is leaving for California, but happy he will still be part of the Salt Lake Practice. He is so knowledgeable regarding the spine and back. I really know I am in great hands with him. His receptionist, nurses, and assistants are kind, helpful, they make you feel like they genuinely care about you. I highly recommend Dr. Zaman, and his associates.
— Wendy H.
Regarding my spinal injection, I didn’t LOVE IT, but I was very thankful for the relief it gave me and very appreciative of everyone going out of their way to help me have the shot expeditiously. Many other doctors and staff would not have been so generous and accommodating.

Dr. Zaman’s skill are excellent, his manner very self-assuring, making a procedure that could be approached with trepidation, manageable. Dr. Berry was right in saying, I have just the right person to do this. He’s terrific. I second the motion!
— Jenee L.
I had an excellent experience with Dr. Zaman and the office. After reviewing my case, he gave me excellent recommendations for treatment. He and the staff were upfront, honest, and direct in the diagnosis and treatment. I would not hesitate to refer friends and family to him in the future!
— Mike N.
I received treatment for a herniated disk from Dr Zaman and was extremely happy with the results and treatment. I have been having major pain for years and finally decided to see a specialist about it. He treated me with a cortisone shot and I’m back to full capacity.

His bedside manner was professional, he is extremely knowledgeable and has clearly done his homework as he provided a lot of written information he published, and he is a big car guy so we were able to relate on a more friendly level as well.

I highly recommend Dr Zaman!
— Dan H.
Dr. Zaman was referred to me by my nephew, who is also my physical therapist. He listened to my explanations and then gave me his opinion of what steps I could take to find the source of my pain. I followed his plan and had the recommended tests. His diagnosis was well defined, and he agreed with me on the next step to take, even though it will be surgical and with a different doctor. Dr. Zaman met or exceeded my expectations for treatment and helped me get the answers I had been seeking. I will not hesitate to see him in the future if needed. His staff is very nice.
— Julie M.
Dr. Zaman is very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. He was able to pinpoint my issues quickly and accurately and my back pain has reduced significantly. I also very much appreciate the fact that he doesn’t ‘sugar coat’ things, but provides a thorough explanation.
— Holly B.
After experiencing back problems for more than 6 months I decided to go see a doctor and get some help. Dr. Zaman was able to give me a diagnosis and treat my symptoms with injections. He is professional, direct and honest which I’ve appreciated. His staff are extremely friendly, considerate and helpful. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Zaman.
— Ingvild P.
Dr. Zaman is a miracle worker! After YEARS of neck pain, I can finally move pain free, after just two injections. The staff there is so friendly and understanding... and the doctor does all he can to provide the best course of action for your situation. I would highly recommend him to anyone with neck/spine ailments!
— Heather B.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Zaman for several years. He is the only physician who actually did something about my back pain. His occasional injections have been effective and his personal attention and caring attitude are refreshing.
— David T.
In mid-March 2015, I suffered a severe case of Sciatica while travelling abroad. Could not walk, and had great trouble sleeping despite being medicated. Made my way back to Salt Lake City with difficulty, and went under Dr. Zaman’s treatment the day after I arrived. Started business travel in early June and golf soon thereafter. No back operation. Thank you Dr. Zaman!
— Kamar A.
An excellent experience. I had multiple appointments with Dr. Zaman and he administered a cortisone injection to my spine. His office is well staffed, friendly and courteous and I rarely waited more than five minutes before seeing him.

He is very professional and knowledgabl. He explained everything to me and answered all my questions. We went over my x-rays and MRI results together and he pointed out places on these where he felt my pain originated. His physical exams were detailed and he followed up on everything that seemed out of the norm. He is friendly and polite and really is what you hope for in a skilled physician. He was closely involved with my physical therapist and the two of them made for a very positive experience. I highly recommend Dr. Zaman to anyone with back or leg pain.
— Jeb M.
Dr. Zaman has always been professional and kind to me. I am respected by him and his staff.
He has provided me with 4 spinal injections and each time has given me much relief from the almost constant pain I have without his treatments. I will continue to visit him and am grateful I found him. I will refer Dr. Zaman to my friends and family.
— Kathy C.
Dr. Zaman was very knowledgeable and professional. He explained things very well and I was happy with the results of his care.
— Michael G.
I had severe back pain and I was referred to Dr Zaman. I found out that I had a herniated disk. He acted quickly to get my pain reduced significantly. He was very thorough, professional and courteous. Dr Zaman has worked closely with the physical therapist to improve my situation and help me avoid surgery. His staff is very friendly and great to work with. I definitely recommend Dr Zaman to anyone in need help with back pain.
— Cheri H.
I was referred to Dr Zaman and went to him without knowing anything about him. He was very concerned about my condition and got me in to have an MRI in 2 days and back to see him on the next business day. He told me I had Spinal Stenosis and gave me 3 options for treatment. He was very supportive with what I chose. When the PT didn’t give me the relief that I needed he agreed to give me the cortisone injections. I have had two of them and right now they are working good. Just praying that they continue to help. His staff is very friendly and easy to work with. I am so thankful that I was referred to Dr. Zaman.
— Bonnie D.
I have seen Dr. Zaman for lower back pain on several occasions over the past two years. I have had severe back pain which he has been able to relieve. I feel like he listens to my concerns and considers them in my treatment. He is very brief and straightforward, but I think he’s a good doctor. He has a professional and friendly staff. I really like all of them. When I have had back problems, Dr. Zaman has been able to get me in quickly which has been very helpful. I think you can’t go wrong with him.
— Brooke O.
I saw Dr Zaman in 2007 for neck problems, and ended up having an epidural injection in my C6-C7 spine. Things went well until 2015, when I visited Dr Zaman for neck pain and arm numbness. He ordered an MRI, and he discovered a new problem in the C5-C6 spine area. He ordered some nerve testing, which supported his findings from the MRI. I received another epidural injection which practically eliminated the pain. Dr. Zaman is very thorough in evaluating and diagnosing problems. He is skilled in performing injections, which are painless (to me, anyway) and quick. I recommend Dr Zaman highly. But, I plan on not seeing him for another several years.
— Jace P.
I was referred to Dr. Zaman for treatment with a Herniated Disc in my back, I was impressed through the process; his staff answers the phone and responds quickly throughout the process and always had time over the phone to answer questions. I was able to quickly fill a perscription over the phone and Dr. Zaman got back to me with a question the same day I called even though he was buried in appointments. I appreciated his expertise. I did feel a bit rushed during our actual appointments and he tends to cut you off in conversation if your like me and want to chit chat.
— Kristofer W.
I have seen Dr. Zaman several times over the last 3 years. He always took time to talk to us and gather information. The explanation of the x rays and MRI’s was very complete. His discussion of options was excellent. When a plan was reached, his implementation of the initial step was very well done. He sent me to a good surgeon for HIP repair rather than replacement.
He has helped me extensively with back pain using appropriate procedures and care. He always works to fix the problem just not cover it up with meds.

I will return to Dr. Zaman as needed.

Thanks
— Rustlerrd
Simply stated, Dr. Zaman has expertly alleviated my neck pain caused by severe spinal stenosis. I had myself convinced that I was headed for surgery, but he has helped me to understand that, sometimes, it takes a series of injections to accomplish your goals. It’s amazing to me that I’ve been pain free for four months. I completely trust Dr. Zaman. He’s very professional and top in his field. Thank you so much, Dr. Zaman.
— Robin B.
My experience in Dr. Zaman’s care exceeded my expectations. The support staff was helpful and efficient as well as kind. Dr. Zaman was confident and precise in his care and though I hope my back issues never return, if they do, Dr. Zaman’s office will be my first call.
— Brian B.
I was referred to Dr. Zaman by my sports med physician because the MRI showed an herniated/bulging disk. On my initial visit with Dr. Zaman he spent time with me understanding my physical fitness history & activity levels, explaining the current situation, reviewing the MRI images and what the radiologist diagnosed based on those MRI images. I left his office with a clear understanding of my circumstance and hopeful he would be able to fix the problem. He listened, explained things clearly & made sure I understood before moving on. In fact, when I asked him if I had pronounced his last name correctly, he said, “I’m Dr. Zaman, the Dr. Zaman that’s going to get you better!” I laughed feeling very good about the meeting. Over the course of two weeks I had two subsequent steroid injections in my spine where the injury was. 24 hours after the second injection all symptoms were gone. I never really had much back pain, more numbness and tingling in my foot, toes, & calf. I have returned to all normal activity just with greater form awareness on certain lifts. I would strongly recommend Dr. Zaman to anyone having back/neck issues period! He is extremely knowledgeable in his area of expertise and equally important he genuinely wants to find the best possible path to heal you. His “bed side” manner is great and he’ll spend the time to answer your questions as well as explain the circumstances clearly so that you leave his office well armed on your prognosis. I am recommending him to all my family and my own clientele and would/will go back to see him if I have any recurrence. That is a true testament of faith in a physician. He’s that good!
— Samie M.
Dr Zaman has helped me with my neck & with my back pain. His knowledge &understanding of the spine impressed me greatly. He “Get’s it” ....he knows how frustrating it is to be inactive! He was very professional. All his office staff were efficient & friendly at all times & they made the experience worth the visit even if I was in pain!!
— Mandy H.
I have been a patient of Dr. Zaman’s for nine years. He has helped me manage my chronic back pain due to an injury. Dr. Zaman has a great bedside manner and is always willing to answer any questions or concerns that I have. Dr. Zaman and I came up with a treatment plan to help manage my pain that did NOT include the long term use of narcotics or surgery. Dr. Zaman gives me spinal injections which have been very successful in managing my pain.

Dr. Zaman’s office staff are awesome as well. They are so friendly and respectful to me as a patient.

I would highly recommend Dr. Zaman as a physician.
— Lisa B.
I have been a patient of Dr. Zaman for more than 10 years now and I can not say enough good things about him. He literally gave me my life back. I was suffering from herniated discs and was in constant pain. I had to kneel on a gardening pad at my desk each day as sitting was much too painful. After my first visit with Dr. Zaman I actually felt some hope and after the first round of injections I knew I was going to get better. Now 10 years later I am able to travel, golf and do all the things I love and I live virtually pain free!! I still suffer intermittently but a couple of visits to Dr. Zaman and a few spinal injections later and I am back up and running. I call him my miracle worker!! He is very knowledgeable and explains everything very thoughtfully. When doing injections he does all he can to make sure you are aware of what is happening and are as comfortable as you can be. I would recommend Dr. Zaman to anyone who wants to stop living in pain from spinal problems!
— Tamra G.
I have had a pinched nerve between L4 and L5 for some 50 years! That has made my life a bit challenging. Teaching Skiing at Alta for 47 years did not help make that pain go away. My primary physician referred me to Dr. Faisel Zaman. That was the best referral I have ever received from anyone.

Dr. Zaman did a full exam of my back and determined the best way to treat the pain. We did injections on the nerve and my pain went away! About every 6 to 8 months I have an injection. That is certainly easier and less expensive than back surgery.

I would encourage any one with back pain to see Dr. Zaman. He will take care of your problem and make sure your are taken care of. Some times surgery is necessary and if that is the case Dr. Zaman will guide you to the correct surgeon for your specific medical problem.

I cannot say enough about the fine care I have received from Dr. Zaman!

Thank you Dr. Zaman.

I have been treated by Dr. Faisel Zaman over the past 18 months for low back pain produced by lumbar stenosis. Over that course of time, I have received four injections in my back. I could just say that he is a good doctor and that the injections were effective and helped quite a bit, but there is so much more that must be said about the overall treatment, reception, care, and caring that I received in Dr. Zaman’s practice. From the front reception, who are kind and understanding, patient and personable, to the nurse who practices with him, who is likable and friendly, to Dr. Zaman himself, who has such a pleasant and amiable bedside manner—I don’t want to sound like I’m just “raving” about the care I received, but in fact, I am. I’m extremely grateful for the care and treatment I received and have great regard for the overall experience. I highly and unreservedly recommend Dr. Zaman for anyone seeking treatment by a physiatrist.
