I meet Dr.Rao in 1994 after a work injury to my back. He had the most highest bedside manner. That I have ever experienced in a doctor. I was very impressed sitting in his waiting room office. Sat a full resume. Of all his schooling and practices. We he went over my MRI. He explained it fully. He told me he could do a l4 l5 fusion. But before I make a decision about having this major surgery. I needed to take a minute to make such a big decision. I felt very confident in him. So I chose to have the surgery. So in March of 1994 he did the major surgery. I’m here to say he did an incredible job. I was told by Dr. Rai that there would be also possibly chances. Of having continued orthopedic care. that having more stress on the disc above and below that he would have to continue the fusion.Well here I am almost 30 years later. And have not had any troubles whatsoever. I’m am so grateful to Dr. RAO. Thank you so much for giving me a great life.
