Lynn ..

My husband had a pinched nerve between lumber vertebrae 4 & 5 and was in constant pain for years. I researched a lot to find excellent surgeons. Dr Taghva was the 3rd neurosurgeon we visited (the first just retired and the second wouldn't perform the surgery), and he performed the surgery. My husband has polycythemia Vera, diabetes, and some other health issues, and is 56 years old. While in surgery, Dr Taghva found a cyst pushing on the nerve in addition to the nerve being pinched by the vertebrae. It's been 4 1/2 weeks since the surgery and my husband is so thankful. His lower back is feeling great and no more pinched nerve or numbness in his leg. He's working in the backyard as I'm typing this now. He's sleeping through the night. I'm so thankful for Dr Tavhga.

About five and a half years ago, my life changed after a serious car accident left me dealing with…read moreconstant neck and lower back pain. My primary care doctor referred me to Dr. Spokoyny, and from our very first appointment, I felt truly cared for. She was thorough, compassionate, and took the time to really listen--something that's rare in healthcare today. When it became clear that I needed two discs replaced in my neck, Dr. Spokoyny guided me every step of the way and referred me to an exceptional specialist who did an incredible job. Thanks to her care and judgment, I felt confident and supported during a very difficult time. I still see Dr. Spokoyny for ongoing medical issues, and she has never once made me feel rushed or overlooked. She respects her patients' time and treats them with genuine kindness and attention. My wife also sees Dr. Spokoyny for her own medical concerns and feels the same sense of trust and gratitude. We are both incredibly thankful to have found a doctor who truly cares, and we recommend her without hesitation. Al Powell

She is a brilliant,…read morewell-educated, and seasoned professional who has a rare gift for explaining complicated medical issues in a way that truly makes sense. I trust her completely because she actually listens and performs a very thorough initial assessment. Beyond her clinical expertise, she is incredibly kind and supportive. She and her team were life-savers when it came to navigating my first experience with an HMO; they are experts at handling the insurance system and ensured all my procedures were approved and covered. If you are looking for a doctor who is as intelligent as she is thoughtful, I cannot recommend Dr. Spokoyny enough!
