Looking for recommendations for a spinal surgeon for herniated disk repair (L4-L5, L5-S1).
I've been referred to Dr. Sabbagh, but would love to hear of any referrals at...
Leslie V. replied:
I used Dr. Yalamanchili (who is a neurosurgeon) at Christiana for my cervial fusion and was very pleased. I asked my primary, my orthopedist, and my pain management doc who they would use for the surgery I needed, and they all recommended him. It may be different for lumbar vs cervical, though.
Lorraine C. replied:
Dr. Eppley, neurosurgeon and is a must at Christiana. Very good and takes his time, explains everything. Will use again. If you don't mind travel go Philadelphia, Baltimore.
Susan R. replied:
Dr Sugarman, but when he cant do the consult for some reason, reschedule

My son had a laminectomy done at Beebe and had to have it redone a year later when he never got better. We went to Dr. Rudin at First State Orthopedics in Newark. He felt like a new person coming out of the operating room!

I am almost 3 weeks post op for my l5-s1 discectomy...my Dr is Dr Malone in Dover. He is a fantastic Dr and his staff is great!

Dr. Sabbaugh did my surgery and I have been pain free every since 5 years now

I has a micro discectomy L4/5 and went to ALAN Hilibrand, MD out of Jefferson in Philadelphia. I highly recommend him and would travel 2 hours again if I had to. I have been pain free since my surgery 7/11/13. http://www.rothmaninstitute.com/physicians/alan-s-hilibrand-md

Dr Sabbagh did my laminectomy June 23. I have alot more mobility than I did before the surgery. I have a close friend whose late wife had surgery with Dr Yalamanchili and the results were catastrophic. He wouldn't send his worse enemy to him!
