PATIENT TESTIMONIAL
I’m a 77 year old retired physician. For 1 year I had severe sciatic pain radiating from my right lower back to my right lower leg. I couldn’t walk more than 50 feet before the pain became severe. Dr. Georgiy Brusovanik performed surgery at Doctors hospital in Coral Gables replacing all the disk in my lumbar spine because the degeneration was severe.Procedure was done in two stages.The surgery was very successful.My recovery each time was shorter than i expected.I am now able to walk my dogs up to 12 city blocks per day.I am very pleased with the care i received and feel that Dr. Brusovanik expertise and kind manor helped me to achieve the success i had.

ABOUT Pain After Back Surgery
Pain after back surgery has become a common symptom amongst patients. And about 50% of my patients are coming to see me after they’ve had surgery somewhere else and are still suffering. A lot of these patients blame themselves. And a lot of times these patients are so discouraged that they have sort of left themselves with saying, “I’m going to continue to live in pain for the rest of my life.”

The reality is that if you obtain a solid diagnosis and a list of possible causes after a failed back operation is a short one. If you can find that exact cause, you can still correct it in the minimally invasive way. And even patients who’ve had a big wide open operation can get back to a pain-free life.
