Hello, I am actually contacting your office for my father. He has had three surgeries over several years, his last about 10 years ago. When he awoke from this surgery, he no longer had flexion in his right foot. Stubborn and angry, he refused to go under the knife. He is currently on his back right now with severe leg pain shooting down his other leg. As far as I know, he has never had a spinal fusion and when he was young they simply removed his discs. I think the majority of his issues stem from his lumbar spine region. We are desperate for some help and seeking only the best. I have had two spinal surgeries myself from idiopathic scoliosis when I was 14 am devoted to helping him. I am confident this is more than a simple case of sciatica and after growing up with my father constantly struggling with an instable spine I am seeking someone who can provide an accurate and thorough assessment and convince him that the correct surgery can improve his quality of life. My question is simple at this point- how quickly can you see him? He currently is unable to move and has severe sciatica, but he does not want to waste his time with seeing physicians in our area. We are in Gunnison and his surgery would need to be elsewhere regardless. Can you or are you able to see him as soon as possible? What do you advise if we cannot get an appointment anytime soon? Thank you for your help!
