Patient Reviews
Feb 06, 2023
Dr. Ries performed L3-S1 spinal decompression and lumbar fusion. I I had left and right leg and hip pain as well as back pain. Dr. Ries explained the procedure, realistic expectations for recovery and answered all my questions. I am very pleased with my recovery at this time and the results so far are better than I anticipated. Highly recommended.
