Patient Reviews
Nov 10, 2020
For several months I was dealing with pain in my upper back and shoulder area which also was causing pain in my right arm. As the months progressed the pain got worse. My GP had me on Gabapentin, I tried the chiropractor, nothing worked. With being a very active person in my mid 50's I was now struggling to work and sleep. I made an appt with Dr. Lopez's office and it changed my life more than you can imagine. After x-rays and MRI's is was determined to be disk degeneration in C5 & C6 causing pressure on the spinal cord. Dr. Lopez sat with me and explained what needed to be done to relieve the pressure, a discectomy and fusion of C5 & C6. At this point I was ready for anything that would alleviate the pain so I could be active again. We scheduled the surgery and 2 weeks later I was free of pain and fishing in Kodiak AK. I highly highly recommend Dr. Lopez, he explained the process in detail and made the Dr./patient relationship real.
