PATIENTS BEWARE. HE ONLY CARES ABOUT HIS WALLET, NOT YOU. GO ANYWHERE ELSE IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOURSELF AND WELLBEING
I went to him about shooting pain going down my right leg, prohibiting to use my knee and causing a lot of pain. MRI had shown stenosis (tightening) of spinal canal, which I've had for decades and knew how to deal with it. It also showed severe stenosis of the foramina where nerves go out.
He recommended laminectomy of 4 levels of my vertebrae, which is essentially cutting out the back of my vertebrae in lumbar section. I repeatedly told him that I didn't want to have any surgery if it doesn't alleviate my leg issue, and that I knew how to deal with back pain and didn't want any surgery just for back pain. He assured me that this was thr necessary procedure to take care of it.
He operated on me on Nov 14, 2024. I knew from the start that the surgery didn't help my leg. But he kept saying that I had to give.it time. I asked him on 2 separate occasions if he had performed foraminotomy to open space for the nerve roots. One time he said he took out bits and pieces. He ordered another mri to see the effect after surgery. I met him again and this time he said he had done full foraminotomy.
Since then I've gone to 2 other neurosurgeons. Both of them have indicated that
1. WRONG SURGERY PERFORMED
2. NO FORAMINAL OPENONG DONE
3. NERVES GOING TO MY RIGHT LEG IS IN WORSE SHAPE THAN BEFORE THE SURGERY BECAUSE OF MORE PRESSURE AND INSTABILITY OF THE VERTEBRAE DUE TO THIS IMPROPER SURGERY!!!
So he left me worse off than before the surgery, tore up my vertebrae for no good reason, just to fill up his quota and show he's productive to his bosses. Two renowned neurosurgeons have stated that this was an improper surgery, that lots of this, what I call unscrupulous immoral butchers (don't call them doctors) perform this as a "default" surgery. What? I'm not a default, and neither is my life, my body, my future. What horrible person does this??? Don't they know there's a thing called Karma? I hope he suffers as he makes his patients suffer, just to fill up his pockets and show $$$ productivity to his superiors to keep his job. You.and I be damned.
Just go do your research. Don't let people like this give you false assurances and ruin your body and future. Don't say you haven't been warned in advance!. read more
