He had a tremendous amount of twisted scoliosis with 4 or5 bulging discs to work on in my lower back. Inside all that, inside my spinal column, there was severe spinal stenosis He had to reach around my spinal bundle of nerves in order to scrape out the stenosis. While doing that, he found that a bone spur at the site of the stenosis, had actually pierced the soft membrane surrounding and protecting the spinal cord (main bundle of nerves within our spinal column). He actually had to make a cut in that membrane and dig to find a piece of the bone spur that broke off. He did a great job! All is well. To top everything off, Dr Lawrence is a very nice person, with a very pleasant demeanor. I give him the maximum number of stars!
February 23, 2023Doctor Lawrence is well-trained and very intelligent.
February 23, 2023Dr Lawrence is the best! That's why it makes me sad that one person can change my feelings about wanting to go back. But he is the best
