My surgery was a only a 3 level open surgical fusion, and very complex. My surgeon was the first in the US to use the Mazor robotic approach. I was hospitalized for 4/5 days and then transitioned into the hospital’s acute recovery unit for 3 weeks. I had 3 physical therapy and occupational sessions daily, it was difficult. I also had a neurologist, his PA and a RN overseeing my care plus an assigned nurse and nurses aides. A hospitalist, my surgeon, his surgical assistant and PA came to see me several times while I was in the unit. This group took a team approach to decisions concerning my care, arranged for an emergency MRI and OR room for my seroma and another drain.

The skill of my orthopedic surgeon was a major blessing, and he used the Mazor robot to set the screws (99.9% accuracy) in the fusion hardware, which is so important. My surgeon also had another physician on his surgical team who monitored the nerves in my spine as he worked on each vertebrae.
I was well trained and prepared to go home after receiving this care. Did I mention my surgeon prayed with me before went went in to the OR.

The surgeon’s name is Neville Alleyene and his hospital affiliation is TriCity Medical Center in Oceanside CA.

Above all, please don’t give up. God led me to this doctor and I suffered for two decades before finding a doctor who said he could fix my back! AND HE DID. The first couple of months after surgery was rough, but is now very tolerable.

May the Lord bless you as well.
