Patient Reviews
Oct 25, 2024
The staff was super friendly and Dr. Wahba explained in detail the procedure. I went today for my 6 month check up and after viewing my X-ray he said it looked perfect. After dealing with back pain and legs that were beginning to have numbness I decided it would not get better. The day after surgery I noticed the numbness an pain gone. Super excited and ready to get back to regular life. Glad I had it done.
