Has anyone had laser surgery at the Laser Spine Institute in Tampa, FL ?
My husband needs a spinal fusion and is considering this laser surgery. It seems that directly after the surgery you go to a hotel and stay there for 5 days (going daily to the clinic). We’d like to find someone who has had experience with either laser surgery or a spinal fusion. My husband has a ruptured L5 S1 disc, lots of scar tissue and a herniated L4 S1.
My friend’s mother in law had unsuccessful surgery there, and they only take cash, not insurance, so it was very costly for her. I also have a neighbor who was very happy with the surgery at the Laser Spine Institute. I do suggest you read the comments the other answerer gave you. I suggest you see a physician at Florida Orthopedic Institute and get a consultation with them. They take insurance and are very good. http://www.floridaortho.com/index.php
Has your husband had lots of physical therapy? I also have a herniated disc at L5 S1. There is no L4 S1. I was in extreme pain, but with a regime of physical therapy and swimming in 90 degree water, I got better without surgery.
