What happened to ALL the BAD (sick) reviews about Anthony Yeung from 2019 (right before retirement) to 2009 ? They all disappeared. During my (forced) many (4) appts to see him - how bad I wanted Anthony Yeung to do my surgery ! Had to travel 50 mins for 4 visits, over a 6 week period. Then insisted that I stay awake for a discogram procedure at his 'own' surgery center (run up insurance bills). Would not do my surgery, if I did not have this 'unnecessary' extremely painful procedure. I requested that I be sedated for the procedure. Anthony Yeung would not do my surgery, if I did not have the discogram procedure - awake. Minutes into the procedure, it felt like my left leg was blown off with a shot-gun. I had never screamed so loud. I told him, to get me off this table, now. I was then sedated. I woke in a bed and was told that my entire left leg was paralyzed. I would regain the use of my leg in 4 hours. My MRI showed ALL the damage to my lumbar. This discogram procedure was totally unnecessary. Anthony Yeung claimed to be the best spine surgeon in the country - a few times. During my 4 forced appts, sick comments were made to me, bye Anthony Yeung. Anthony Yeung spoke to my spine surgeon in another near bye State and my spine surgeon stopped treating me. I badly required a spine surgery (per my MRI) and my spine surgeon in another State informed me, that he can no longer treat me ! Thank God, the Legend (as he calls himself) has retired.
I brought my MRI to Nima Salari a couple of years ago. My MRI stated, that a piece of my disc in my lumbar broke off. The MRI referred to it as : there is a free floating fragment. This broken off piece of disc was touching my L4 nerve. I could not stand or sit and barely walk. I had extreme sciatica. Salari walked into the exam room (1.5 hrs. late - with a 1pm appt) and wanted to send me out for another MRI. My MRI clearly stated, I needed surgery. Salari stated, " I don't see it that way'. I traveled to another State and had a professional spine surgeon perform my spine surgery. That doctor saw my MRI report and DVD disc and I was set-up for surgery a month later.
Stay away from this practice. If something bad happens during surgery, you better not sue them. They have too much control in the entire State of AZ and other States. You will NOT get the treatment you need from other doctor's and never know why, this is happening. I found this out from other AZ residents. read more
