Dr Citow performed a Spinal Lamination from L1-L5 with a fushion at L4-L5. Dr Citow has extensive credentials and this made me apprehensive at first, since some Dr's that are this well known are not always the most compassionate and caring, but that is not the case with Dr. Citow. I saw him once in his office as a second consult after the first Dr my insurance sent me to said that I would be fine if I lost a few pounds. After that I saw a Neuro consultant who reviewed all my MRI's and X-ray's and said there was no doubt that I needed surgery and referred me to Dr Citow. It did take about a month to get an appt., but I found out it was well worth the wait. He had the report from the consultant, and revied the same test results and scheduled me for surgery within the month. I have a completely new life now because of him, I am sure that I would have been home bound if not bed bound by now without my surgery. I know that I need cervical fushion as well, and although I now live in TX, I will make the arrangements and trip to have Dr. Citow do this surgery as well there is no other Dr. that I would trust to work this close to my spinal cord and with my life.
