Wow, thanks so much for your informed response!

I somewhat want to get another opinion but I’m starting to feel silly that I keep going to different surgeons.

I’d love to get another opinion, just wondering how I can confirm a surgeon is a good one aside from the standard Google reviews you find.

My primary care doctor is the individual who referred me to the surgeon who wants to perform the disc replacement. The surgeon was the first to do it in the state I live in and is “the best neurosurgeon he knows.” The other two I just found off Google.

Is there a good resource to check aside from Google or to search?
