This was my second visit with Dr Czyrny (pronounced "Churny" if you ever need an appointment). If…read moreyou've ever had a nerve conduction study, you're probably cringing at the thought of having to have TWO of them done. But hang with me. The first time I saw Dr. Czyrny was before I had a spinal fusion surgery. My orthopedic surgeon sent me here prior to cutting into me. I didn't know what to expect and really didn't do any homework ahead of time. My ortho told me that I'd feel some "tingling" and some "slight shocking" feelings, but that was it. It honestly didn't sound too bad. I've got a few tattoos, so needles don't exactly scare me. I wish I could tell you more about that initial appointment, but I really don't remember that much about it. It was in 2015. Nothing really stands out. After a car accident in 2017, my shoulder specialist sent me to see Dr. Czyrny for a nerve conduction study because I was complaining of some shoulder pain that sounded a lot like a torn rotator cuff. He did some X-rays, an MRI, and then felt the nerve conduction study was important. I knew I had been before, but had forgotten what kind of adventure I was in for, so I did some homework this time. Holy crap! To say this scared the pants off me is an understatement! I watched videos and read reviews that had me so scared that I was ready to call the whole thing off. However, the morning of my appointment, I found my biggest & brightest pair of big girl undies and went into that appointment expecting a horrifying experience, but knowing I'd live to tell about it. As I sat in the waiting room, a calm feeling came over me when I started to think logically. This nerve conduction study was something I had done before. This procedure didn't stand out in my mind in any way. It didn't stand out as being awful or as being incredibly painful. It didn't stand out as being anything. That made me realize that it probably wasn't going to be so bad. When my name was called and I went back to the procedure room, Dr. Czyrny eased my fears pretty instantly. He didn't necessarily recognize my face, but he did know my name and he knew he had done the study on me before. He asked me if I had any questions, and I told him I didn't really remember the first experience. He said, "Well, that means either it isn't as bad as people say it is or maybe I am actually skilled at this after all!" We both chuckled at his joke, and he had me sit on the table while he began with the needles. I felt literally almost nothing. Remember when you were a kid in the '70s and you'd shuffle your socked feet across the shag carpet? Then you'd go find your little brother and touch him, both of you screaming for just a second during that quick electric shock? No? Was that just me? Well, this was less than that. Dr. Czyrny really is skilled at what he does, and while he had to go up and down both arms, I had no problems sitting like a champ for the procedure. I didn't need my big girl undies after all. I could most definitely have done just fine with little girl undies. Certainly no need for granny panties! So if you're having a nerve conduction study and you're scared out of your wits, I'm not going to guarantee that the procedure won't hurt at all. But I will tell you that if you have that study done with Dr. Czyrny, it'll be a breeze! (Still, you should probably wear some underwear.)

Dr DenHaese first did a discotomy and fusion of my cervical spine that was a tremendous success in…read more2008. I returned to him to repair a botched surgery on a slipped disc in my lower back In 2019. The surgery was done in 2 stages. On the first day he entered through 2 parallel incisions on my right side and used robotic arms to start building a cage from L-1 down. on the second day he made 2 more incisions on either side of my former scar. He removed the old hardware and several broken pieces of the plastic disc spacers. He completed the cage using cadaver bone spacers. Unfortunately after the surgery, there was a bulge on my right side above my waist at the site of the 2 parallel incisions. He refused to take any responsibility for this bulge which was originally thought to be a lipoma. Further testing determined that a HERNIA had occurred at the site of the incisions. Since then, I have had 2 surgeries in an attempt to repair the hernia on my right side above my waist where Dr DenHaese made the initial incisions. The bulge is still there and will warrant a 3rd surgery in the near future. My out of pocket costs have been prohibitive. Time lost from my job as a Realtor for all of these surgeries has resulted In a loss of income at a time when I need extra money for chiropractors, physical therapists and surgery co-pays. The worst part is that the spinal surgery is now failing too. On my last visit Dr DenHanse told me to go ahead and have the hernia repaired again because he can always go in from my left side to correct his spinal surgery that has now failed. His cavalier attitude is what hurts the most. My sciatic nerve is still "pinched" causing burning pain down my right leg. My leg goes out on me when the nerve is pinched making me fear that I will fall. I will pursue further treatment with a different surgeon.

I had surgery on August 8th. Then on the 12th had ammonia. The Dr said I had to wait a month for…read moremy next surgery. I had it September 11th, 2020. With those surgery my back felt great.
