Sitting in a cars for just 20 minutes sent "immense pain" down his right leg. This patient tried years of physical therapy, chiropractic care plus other non-surgical treatment methods and nothing seemed to work. He was understandbly skeptical of surgery until he found Top US Spine Surgeon, Dr. Hooman Melamed.
As the patient explains in this video, Dr. Melamed took the time to walk him through his MRI, show him the extent of the damage to his spine and carefully explain all the options available to him. The patient opted for surgery and doesn't regret it. After just a few hours of an outpatient procedure, the patient walked out of the clinic and took it easy for a few weeks of recovery. Today, the patient is able to take road trips and do the things he loves.
