Patient Reviews
Nov 14, 2023
Dr Simpson immediately diagnosed my herniated disc issue. After suffering with chronic sciatic leg pain (L5,S1) for 18 months and 4 unsuccessful injections by a Physiatrist, he performed a minimally invasive endoscopic decompression, which immediately relieved my excruciating nerve pain. My incision was less than an inch and my recovery was easy. I highly recommend him for anyone with major back issues.
