“Dr. Greene performed an open discectomy on me at L4/5. I was experiencing excruciating sciatica pain. My surgery was at 7:00am, by noon I was walking out to go home. Pain is gone, I feel like a new man. The staff was friendly and professional. I would recommend anyone suffering with sciatica.” -Tom
