Patient Reviews
Nov 18, 2023
He is a great doctor. He under promises and over delivers. He does not jump to surgery and explains all the risks in any procedure and let the patient to decide what would be the next step. I have been involved with each step of my sister’s surgery. He performed a very complicated surgery on my sister’s lower back which included the lumbar laminectomy, partial facetectomies L4-L6, L5-L6, posterolateral fusion with instrumentation, autograft, and allograft in Sep 2023. The outcome is terrific the way my sister has no pain on her lower back. Basically, it was a miracle. I cannot thank him and his staff especially, his assistant nurse, Baha enough to see my loved one can walk again.
