Patient Reviews
Sep 23, 2024
Dr Falakassa is very confident in his surgical skills as demonstrated in my successful operation. Prior to surgery, each visit he would review the procedure. Very patient with my list of questions. I have DDD and had L4-5 fused. He said he would be able to get me out of pain and he did. Two weeks out of surgery and healing much faster than expected. Had absolutely no complications. Definitely would use Dr Falakassa again! His smiling face is infectious and always makes me feel comfortable.
