Patient Reviews
Dec 17, 2024
Dr. Barcohana performed a disc replacement surgery on my cervical spine. The surgery went so much more smoothly than I expected, thanks to Dr. Barcohana and his amazing team. They were all so professional, knowledgeable, and made me feel like I could trust them. Due to their exceptional care, and Dr. Barcohana's skill, my recovery has been extremely fast - I felt the positive effects of the new disc immediately after the surgery - my pains stemming from nerve compression disappeared. And it only took a few days after the surgery for the pain in my throat & neck to subside (which was minor to begin with), and I feel close to 100% only 2 weeks after the surgery. I feel fortunate to have had him as my surgeon and I can't recommend him and his team enough.
