Patient Reviews
Nov 10, 2020
I would highly recommend Dr. Jeffrey Degen. It is just a little less than a month after Dr. Degen performed a Laminectomy and Spinal Fusion on me. I had been in excruciating pain for several years prior to the surgery. The day after the surgery the pain in my lower back, hip and leg was gone. I of course had some pain in the surgical area but the pain that necessitated the surgery is gone. I am once again able to walk pain free. During my initial appointments, prior to my surgery, Dr Degen explained in detail what the surgery would entail and what I could expect after the surgery. I found Dr. Degen to be both compassionate and professional during every aspect of my treatment and post surgical care.
