Alexis Falicov, MD

My experience was very good.

I'm not normally part of the Swedish medical system, but it was recommended to me to see Dr Falicov for a surgery consultation. He and his purport staff did a great job. My wife who is a physician also attended the appointment with me. Sometimes the conversation becomes Dr to Dr conversation, but Dr Falicov didn't let that happen. He did a very good job explain to me the pros and cons of a surgery at this point of my injury. If I do decide to move forward with the surgery I feel very comfortable that he will do a great job.

Dr Falicov is an exceptional surgeon and a decent human being. He doesn't rush into surgery unless you've tried more conservative options or what's wrong can't be fixed nonsurgically. I trust him completely.

20 minutes past appointment time, but good visit with doctor.

I saw Dr. Falicov for a specific reason. He thoroughly explained my condition, listened to my symptoms, clearly answered my questions and explained his recommendations.

Dr Falicov went way beyond what was expected. He took the time to look at my X-rays and medical records before talking with me. After listening to my concerns, he clearly explained the situation with my back, how to deal with it, and when to know more medical intervention might be needed. He put my health needs first; I trust his judgement. Thank you.

Provider was kind, knowledgeable and familiar with my condition and previous conditions. He gave clear and understandable descriptions of what we were looking at and why he made the recommendation he did.

Excellent doctor and very knowledgeable

Dr. Falicov is an extremely bright person. This reflects in his skills as a neurosurgeon. Pleasantly, he is thorough, articulate, explains things well, and works to get results. Grade him 10/10.

Clear communication. Answered all questions to my satifaction.

Dr falicov is an excellent physician who expresses care for his patients and does not push for unnecessary treatments

Provider thorough in his review of medical history.

Dr. Falicov was my back surgeon before joining Swedish. I'm pleased to have him in the Swedish system. He is by far the best back doc I've ever had. Competent, talented and extremely thorough.

I am grateful! Thank you.

I have had back issues since October 2024. I was not getting positive results from another provider. I needed a second opinion. Dr. Falicov was extremely knowledgeable of my issues and has great communication skills in conveying information where I could easily understand what needed to be done, how and why.

Dr Falicov was amazing. Obviously loves his work. He communicates extremely well, listens and is very knowledgeable and compassionate. I have never been so impressed with my care.

I was correctly diagnosed within 3 minutes of my interactions with Dr. Falicov what 3 visits to 3 different Emergency Room "doctors" just days before failed to diagnose. Treatment and pain relief was quickly addressed. Dr. Falicov is a wizard in my view!

Dr Falicov is really smart and an excellent surgeon. He's operated on me 3 different times, only after many discussions and never rushing into surgery. When he says I need a procedure, I trust him. He's also remarkably down to earth for a hotshot surgeon.

Dr. Falicov is an excellent doctor who shows considerable cares for his patient's needs, and explains my condition clearly. He is highly professionally and highly knowledgeable. I would recommend him highly to anyone.

Im from eastern washington and the staff, care ,Dr Falicov were outstanding. A top class facility!

Every person working at your facility (parking attendant, receptionists, x-ray, medical assistants and drs) are kind, friendly, helpful and welcoming! A requirement to work at Swedish?

Dr Falicov is knowledgeable- no nonsense and effective

Dr. Falicov has cared for me and my son for a long time. He provides excellent thoughtful care and communicates extremely well. I am happy to recommend him without hesitation to anyone who needs orthopedic care in his sub specialty.

Dr. Falikov is a very kind & attentive specialist, actually much more personable than most surgeons. He was very informed about all of my recent tests, not only the ones that he ordered but also all of my other health care providers. As a retired RN and Clinical Psychologist, I have always been very impressed by his thoroughness, thoughtfulness and excellent care. I have every confidence in his abilities to handle my spinal surgery with great skill and excellent knowledge.

Outstanding Dr.

Dr. F. Was extremely helpful in providing short term and long term solution oprions for my back problem.

Dr Falikov very quickly diagnosed my problem and sent me to the testing required to verify his diagnosis and get me on a track to a solution.

Dr Falicov was EXTREMELY GENEROUS in taking time to understand all our questions. He gave very clear helpful answers and useful caring recommendations.

It was an excellent experience. It was my first time going there. Dr falicov was recommended to me for a herniated disc. He showed me on the mri what the problem was and the best route to fix it.

Dr. Falicov spent a large amount of time with us explaining the results of my MRI in relation to the options I have to correct my health issue.
