My 77-year-old father had a fall in January. The initial orthopedist said he had a compression fracture and just needed medication. However, his walking deteriorated, and doctors suggested the issue was neurological rather than spinal. A neurologist even recommended shunting surgery.
Unsatisfied, I sought a second opinion from Dr. S.R. Patil. He was able to identify my father's various health problems and advised addressing them one at a time. He recommended against the shunting surgery and suggested spinal stabilization surgery instead.
Due to my father's high comorbidities, the surgery could not proceed. However, Dr. Patil recommended vertebroplasty to reduce the pain and improve mobility. This surgery was successful - my father's pain has decreased significantly, and he is now able to walk normally without any support.
I am very grateful to Dr. Patil and highly recommend him for any spinal issues.
His expertise, attentiveness, and communication made me feel confident and comfortable throughout the appointment. I highly recommend it.
