Hi, Thanks for the reply and information. I am so sick of a back ache everyday and been try ing to find more information on this type of surgery. So far, I don't think a dr. offers it here yet. Keep in touch and hope the surgery and recovery goes well for you. Joan

Joan: Where do you live? Mayo offers this procedure. Your Pain Specialist should be able to recommend another specialist who does the procedure or Google the procedure and ask the manufacturer for nearest physician. I have a friend who had it with good results for pain management. I was evaluated by a Pain Specialist who does Vertiflex procedures but I did not qualify because of too extensive of lumbar and thoracic stenosis.
