Patient Reviews
Feb 29, 2024
I could no longer sit stand or walk. I was in constant nerve pain and needed immediate intervention. I was referred by a friend to Dr.Dorman and even though his appointments were booked they put me on a waiting list and thankfully were able to see me that following week. Upon seeing my condition and MRI Dr.Dorman recommended surgery and we agreed. He was able to get me in the hospital that night and surgery the next day. Immediately after the surgery I felt a million times better. All the nerve pain was gone and for the first time in months I was able to lay on my back peacefully and without discomfort. I was walking by myself in a couple days I was standing straight and moving better than before. Dr. Dorman gave me my life back and put on the road to recovery. I would recommend him to anyone but especially if you live in the Midland-Odessa area. I was so scared of spinal surgery I tried every other option till there was no other option. If I’d known what I know now he would be my 1st.
