L3-4 / 4-5 in Mongolia
I have traveled from the U.S. to Mongolia for 2 level fusion on July 21.
World renoun top spine surgeon who trains other surgeons around the globe, so I am confident with his ability. However I am concerned about PT once I return to the States and how all that works out, also if there are any types of issues post surgery would my doc here even be interested in seeing me? His experience was limited, but said “he was sure he could do this procedure…only open surgery, my response was “thank you but no thank you.” Whereas my Mongolian Dr. only does robotic with very small incisions. His name is Nurbeyk Baban.
So damn long just to get an office visit in the U.S.!

Why do you went to go to the most out of the way place on earth to have spine surgery? You must have a lot of money but not using it wisely in my opinion. Don’t know your age so don’t know your insurance situation. Anything your Mongolian doc orders for you will not work in the states. You’ll need a U.S. doc to order PT. This might help you out from my perspective and thought line. You may be a native of Mongolia and receive free healthcare but the surgery can change your life one way or another. Be safe and be aware of what you’re buying.
