Patient Reviews
Dec 20, 2023
I have been seeing this Amazing Doctor for many years! He has performed surgeries on me since 2010! He is the Only Doctor who I trust to perform Neurosurgical procedures! Doctor Gilbert and his amazing staff worked with me to see if i was a good candidate for a pain pump implant. that was in 2015 fast forward July 26 of 2023 Doctor Gilbert performed a pain pump replacement . I have been extremely fortunate to be able to get relief from the implant going from high doses of Oxycontin along with Oxycodone for breakthrough pain relief to having less than ten milligrams of a combination of narcotic and a numbing solution to give me much needed pain relief! Although I will never be pain free but i'm so grateful to be able to have enough relief from the pain that I am able to function!
