Possible hybrid Surgery next month!
Hi, My name is Joe and I am (hopefully when insurance ok's it) going for Hybrid disc replacement surgery. DDD and slip & fall L4-L5 and L5-S1. ADI with Prodisc L4-L5 and fusing L5-S1 with Dr. Goldstein at Hospital for Joint Diseases in NYC. I understand he is one of the most experienced doctors in this field. Has anyone used him and if so your outcome? I am 38 years old and a police officer in NY. I desperately want to return to work and my very active lifestyle I had before my injury. If anyone has had the same surgery please let me know your results. Thanks.
Joe
