I have already written a very positive review. For some reason only 1 star in highlighted. Dr. Zavala should receive a 5-star rating from me. His surgery and my stay at the hospital were excellent. I am 9 weeks post op and doing very well. I have no more sciatica pain and I believe my prior surgery nerve damage is improving. Thank you Dr. Zavala!!!
