Patient Reviews
Oct 04, 2024
After an Ambulance Ride to the ER and some Test the Last thing I ever expected to hear from the ER Doc at 37yrs old was they had called a Spine Specialist to come speak with me. I was scared and worried with 1000 questions until Dr. Bjerke walked in. He was kind and caring and assured me everything was going to be okay! As a mom of 5 who has been completely healthy my entire life, not even a broke bone, my only concern was being able to keep up with my kids very busy activities after having this surgery. I experienced some leg numbness and a mild form of Foot Drop. Dr. Bjerke offered every form possible to help with this. He isn’t a doctor who just pushes you off with meds or says let’s try this first or this. He goes straight to fix the problem!! I am 7wks post surgery, returning to work with no restrictions and about 85% back to my PreSurgery Self. Dr. Bjerke is amazing at what he does and I firmly believe you will not find a more caring and knowledgeable doctor.
