PRaise for Dr. Sumit Das
I was referred to Dr. Das and we decided to go ahead with surgery because I had been in a lot of pain. Now, I am planning a trip to a country I have never seen before because I am no longer in any pain!
I had shooting pains in my back 24/7 and since the surgery I haven't had any pain. Dr. Das and everyone that works with him were wonderful and professional.
I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Das and the staff at the Brain & Spine Neurosurgical Institute. I went to my initial consultation, and felt immediately at ease. This was my first surgery, and I was extremely impressed with my level of care.
