Patient Reviews
Jul 21, 2023
I was experiencing intense suffering due to two herniated lumbar discs compressing a nerve and causing excruciating pain that radiated down my leg. Seeking medical advice, I consulted with Dr. Lycette who, along with other doctors, confirmed the need for surgery. Dr. Lycette performed a bilevel microdiscectomy, and I experienced instant relief upon waking up from the procedure. After enduring months of agony, I finally found relief. Dr. Lycette was straightforward about the risks of reherniation and the necessary lifestyle changes. Although I haven't had follow-up appointments with him, as I've been seeing his PA's instead, and I’m fine with that, his did his part, I am extremely grateful for his successful intervention, and I hope I never have a need to see him again ha ha! Moreover, his PA's have been exceptionally kind and helpful.
No longer suffering! — Jul 21, 2023
