Patient Reviews
Jun 11, 2024
I have been battling chronic pain since my first cervical spinal fusion in 2022. I cannot say enough about Dr. Pitkanen and his team. Most importantly, he listened to me and I felt like he truly heard me about my pain. After success with multiple pain blocks, they unfortunately, stopped working. Dr. Pitkanen urged me to get more imaging and see my neurosurgeon. Sure enough, there were two broken screws in my neck that will be replaced next week along with another fusion of C6 C7. I will be forever indebted to Dr. Pitkanen for not only his bedside manner, but amazing skills and knowledge. I would recommend him to anyone.
