Patient Reviews
Aug 01, 2019
Excellent. On October 5, 2018, Dr. Tarapor performed lumbar 4 and 5 fusion surgery on me. The results have been nothing short of miraculous. I can walk again without excruciating pain. It is nine months later (July 2019) and I am working out, feeling great. Dr. Tarapor did not talk down to me. He explained all the options and the risks associated with each one. He allowed me to make the ultimate decision.
