Who is familiar with: It is not a common procedure only few surgeons do this procedure routinely even though is relatively simple and accessible . General , ortho , and neuro surgeons are familiar with anatomy of that area . Speak to your own family doctor first once diagnosis is established will refer you to the one who does it on regular basis. .

My pain doctor did decompression on my back for stenosis. it didn't work & he said atcthis point, I need to see a surgeon to have an operation. Would a Vertiflex Procedure help, as I do not want a Fusion or a Laminectomy ?
