Recommended to Goodman & Campbell via my neurologist to have a surgery consult based on having spinal stenosis for years that has progressively gotten worse & a recently discovered bulging disc. Surgery is an option but it was decided that I try a cervical epidural steroid injection first. Dr Derron Wilson would be the one to perform the injection. I did my research on this doctor prior, as I always do, being a nervous person but I also like to be as educated & informed as possible beforehand. I found many positive comments and 5 star reviews as well as his long educational background so I felt reassured (backed by my neurologist's high recommendation of the facility itself).
Still being extremely nervous having a needle injected into my spinal area (and my epidurals with my children being a complete nightmare) I have to say the entire process was very quick, no more than 15 minutes. Relatively painless, the only hint of pain was the numbing needle (which I'll take any day ...and can't really be prevented), the rest was pressure. I feel great on day 3...and if I have to have more of these, I will definitely do so with confidence.
(To add, Dr Wilson called to check on how I was feeling after the procedure as well. That was appreciated.) read more
