Let me start by saying I am a 59 year old Male . Who’s worked heavy Construction my entire life .. I injured myself on 4/26/24 a Friday and like all other times I figured by Monday I’d be ok for work . I’m a rigger that was working up in Yonkers. By the time I got to work I could barely move . And Drove back to Long Island where I asked my wife to take me to ER . After MRI it showed several disks in neck broke through and were pressing on my spine nerves . My wife had a friend who worked for top surgeon in NYC and in the 6-7 visits back and forth NYC and getting also getting steroid shots ,that did nothing , That Surgeon said he must do Surgery. So I went for second Opinion to Long Island brain and spine . Spoke with Nikki who called Dr Darakchiev immediately and he was able to see me same day . Dr Darakchiev spent more time with me and my wife in one visit then the other surgeon did in 7 visits . He explained what exactly he would do to relieve my pain with a Fusion . Unfortunately this is a WORKEMENS comp case . That happens to be the worst system going in NY . So now I must also Thank Lisa who never gave up on me and put so much extra work in trying to get me approved by this WC Board ! All in all it took 5 months from date of injury to finally be approved . I am three days home from hospital . Where I was well taken care of . And anyone that asked who my surgeon was while I was in Hospital ,I said Dr Darakchiev! They ALL said he’s the Best there is . I spent 5 months in my home unable to drive , or sleep in a bed and in excruciating Pain. I slept 2 hrs at a time in my recliner . Never left my home ..All because of Workmens Comp horror show ! From the moment I opened my eyes after Surgery the pain in neck ,hands and arms vanished! I wanted to kiss and hug Dr Darakchiev and started to tear up . I know I could never go back to doing my old job and risk all the work Dr Darakchiev,did to me , but that’s ok I put enough blood sweat a tears in my years , and just know I can live a life without excruciating Pain in my neck , arms and numb fingers . Thank You Dr Darakchiev,Nikki and Lisa my personal angel that kept on top on Workmens comp case and fighting for my Surgery and healing . If you read this and are contemplating using Long Island Brain and Spine . I give them a 100 Star Review ! Thank you again Dr Darakchiev and to the entire Team at Long Island Brain and Spine !
