“Dr Pasquale Montesano fixed my lumbar spine when a herniated disc at L4 L5 and spinal stenosis were crushing the nerve and sending pain down my leg. He decompressed the spine, took the pressure off the nerve, and restored space in the spine so I could walk without the shooting pain that had taken over my days.
The procedure itself was far less painful than thought. I woke up comfortable, stood the same day, and the spine pain was already fading rather
He is extremely professional. He reviewed every spine image, explained exactly what was wrong in the spine, and never rushed the visit. The whole team treated the spine problem like it mattered.
I have heard Harvard level spine talk from other offices.
This visit felt like that standard in real life: precise spine diagnosis, calm spine planning, and a result that actually fixed the spine. If you need a spine surgeon who can correct a specific spine problem and keep the recovery surprisingly easy, go to him.”

After booking, confirming the appointment, and waiting a week, I was told the doctor I made an appointment with was not even in town. Office staff never apologized and shifted the blame onto some marketing person as if they are the ones who list the doctors availability. My finger is broken and this place is very unprofessional. Honestly, urgent care was better.
