Patient Reviews
Jul 13, 2023
Dr. Schultz removed my sciatic nerve from between L4and L5. I haven’t had any problems with sciatica in 20 years. He also diagnosed my piriformis syndrome. I learned what to do about it and can usually take care of flare ups. He is an excellent doctor and takes time with each patient to explain and answer questions which I appreciate. My husband had trigeminal neuralgia and could not improve with medication, so he chose surgery. Dr. Schultz was very clear about his options, and surgery went great and took care of his problem. We both appreciate Dr. Schultz and recommend him to everyone we know.
