Patient Reviews
Oct 18, 2024
I'll start by saying I never write reviews, either positive or negative. My disc herniation started 18 months ago while watching my son's basketball games. After all the usual treatments, chiro, PT, steroid injection, acu,, etc...I consulted with a few specialists. I was referred to Dr. Mummaneni by a family friend (ophthalmologist) who knew of Dr. M. From my initial consult to the surgery, he and his team have been extremely responsive, patient, and transparent throughout with my treatment. I was very fortunate to avoid any surgery in my life so the thought of finally having to go under the knife was terrifying. Dr. M. and team were so reassuring that I had the microdiscectomy in August of 2024. I was pain free with both my back and right leg 1 day after surgery. 2 weeks after surgery I was walking completely normal without pain for the first time in 18 months. It has been a transformative experience and for that I am immensely grateful to Dr. M. and his entire team.
