Patient Reviews
Apr 23, 2024
I consulted with Dr. Jung after an MRI revealed spinal stenosis. Referred pain from nerve root decompression had become progressively worse and a steroid injection provided no relief. Dr. Jung recommended laminotomy surgery to relieve pressure on the nerve roots. A second opinion, which Dr. Jung encouraged confirmed that this was the best course of action. The surgery went smoothly and I left the surgical center pain free. The first two weeks of my recovery were more challenging than they might have been. Because I was pain free, I overdid the instruction that encouraged walking and did not follow the instruction to take the prescribed opioids to 'get ahead of the pain.' This resulted in significant cramping and discomfort. In response, Dr. Jung prescribed a course of steroids and my recovery then improved. By the two week checkup, I was ~90% recovered and Dr. Jung lifted all restrictions. Following the surgery, I have had no referred pain symptoms.
