Option AOption BOption COption DOption EI was having severe back pain and had difficulty standing, sitting, turning over in bed and walking. I had seen other doctors but was only offered epidurals which lasted a few months and then the pain came back. I was referred to Dr Armin by a friend. I made an appointment and he sent me for tests after which I returned to see him. He originally thought he would need to do major surgery but as a result of the tests he could see that I should benefit from a less complicated outpatient procedure. Within a mater of a couple of weeks the surgery was completed. I went into the hospital in pain and after surgery I could immediately tell the pain was gone. He was honest with me about the fact that there is no way to tell how long these results will last. I may eventually need a more major surgery but it has been over four months and I am still free of pain.10/13/19
