TERRIBLE doctor EVER. He caused damage to other levels during spinal fusion surgery causing continued chronic pain and inability to bend without inflammation and pain. Never notified me of CRITICAL information in my medical records that was life threatening. Ended up in ER the day after his surgery unable to move my lower body. Had to be carried by Ambulance paramedics. My xray medical records were manipulated (missing) after ER visit. His NP didn't put my symptoms I complained about in medical records and stated the surgery was a success. Still over a year since surgery and I can't bend or twist without stabbing pain causing inflammation, night tremors, critically high blood pressure not responding to medication, and other symptoms. I should have read reviews before surgery because I'm not the only one it seems that he has caused terrible damage. I advise everyone to contact the licensing board and your lawyers. My Quality of life is RUINED.
