Patient Reviews
Nov 23, 2022
Dr Sharan is the most caring physician I have ever met. He is gentle and non alarming. His surgical skills, I believe, are excellent. I have suffered with sciatic pain for 6 years and have been to pain management and other orthopedic surgeons. Not until I met Dr Sharan the cause of the pain was a guess. It was Dr Sharan who found the cause. Having had a spinal fusion6 years ago, the screws were impinged on my sciatic nerve. Dr Sharan surgically removed them along with a laminectomy. I am now 2 weeks post surgery and recovering. Sciatic pain has lessened and I believe that I will have total relief of sciatic pain. I would recommend Dr Sharan and his caring staff to anyone in need.
