Reviews of Back Institute
"My name is David. I'm from Canada. I found the Back Institute online after doing some research after I had found out that I had a herniated disc. It was creating troubles with work. I couldn't work for 5 weeks. I was unable to get into a specialist back in Canada, so we made the trip to the Back Institute. I have close to zero pain and I'd recommend it to anyone willing to make the trip."
"They false advertise, but stopped taking Medicare a year ago. There are more reviews from people who have been harmed by them that are red flags, it's not only those of us disappointed in their exclusivity."
"This is a scam. Left far worse. If you get a bad feeling about this place, don't go through with it like I did. Biggest regret of my life. I had a local surgeon that knew about Dr. Ditsworth apologize for what this office and Dr. Ditsworth did after getting followup MRIs. Check out the offices beforehand, don't trust the sales team or whatever they are, and don't let them rush you through. I am shocked that places like this are allowed to exist. Made me do a recorded interview at the post op appointment when I was in a lot of pain. This place is crazy."
"I am Bob P, A Gastroenterologist from Upstate NY. I have suffered from lower back pain / Sciatica for at least 20 years on and off due to disc disease involving L3-S1. Over the last two years the pain became a constant impediment to my work and daily life. After extensive research, I found Dr. Ditsworth. The whole process from submitting my MRI for review up to my surgery was seamless and professional. You can imagine my joy when I woke up from my surgery and my pain was essentially gone! I had a band aid and photo of all the fragments that were pressing on my spine and removed. I continue to do well after surgery, doing the prescribed Physical Therapy. I returned to work after one week. Darren was extremely helpful through out the whole process, including getting my procedure getting approved as an out of network procedure. I highly recommend Dr. Ditsworth and The back institute for anybody suffering from Chronic back pain."
"Hello, my name is Ilya. I am a pulmonary/critical care physician from New York. Here is a description of my experience with pain and Back Institute. For over two month, following a fall while skiing in Vermont, I have been developing progressive left lower extremity pain while walking as well as numbness over left buttocks area. The pain was predominantly in calf and hamstrings areas. Initially, I attributed these symptoms to sciatica due to Piriformis syndrome and opted to treat this conservatively with PT, TENS, massages. Over time the symptoms got severe with pain 9/10 despite Prednisone and Oxycodone daily. I could not work, could not rest and, since my symptoms got worse, finally ended up getting an MRI ( wish I had done it sooner) which to my surprise revealed extruded disc and a compression of L5 S1 root. After a consultation with a Spine fellowship trained Neurosurgeon I was advised that Laminectomy with Discectomy is my only option should I decide to proceed with surgery. I wanted to a second opinion and spoke with yet another Spine specialist, who after reviewing my MRI, agreed with his colleague. Although laminectomy is a standard of care for someone in my situation, I wanted to minimize potential future complications and wanted to see if there is an alternative where no bone or muscle is removed. That is how I ended up on the site of the Back Institute. I was very skeptical initially, especially considering their website design is not impressive ( given their claim that what they are offering is one of kind type of procedure in the U.S.) Nevertheless, I wanted to explore this option. By a complete coincidence, through an independent connection, I ran into an acquaintance, whose employer, a physician, as well, had a microdiscectomy with Dr. Ditsworth about a month earlier. This physician spoke very highly of his experience and wholeheartedly recommended the Back institute to me. After a lot of consideration ( after all it is quite expensive), I decided to proceed. After filling out the inquiry form online I was contacted by Darren who was very thorough in explaining entire procedure including cost, need of additional CT, hotel and postop follow up. After arrival to LA, next morning I had CT scans done as was needed for my surgery. The same day I headed to the Back Institute where I met and was evaluated by Dr. Ditsworth and his team; Subsequently I was brought to the OR suite where a surgery was done. I woke up in recovery room and shortly thereafter saw Dr. Ditsworth who asked me to take a few steps. I could not believe that immediately after being under conscious sedation and, more importantly, after a surgical procedure, a patient would be asked to do that! However, what was even more shocking is that I actually was able to walk completely 100% pain free!!. Additionally, my surgical scar, if you can call it that, was about half an inch! That same evening I was able to walk to a restaurant ( I was very hungry being NPO preop!) and next day went to the office for a follow up, again pain free. After being miserable for over 2 month, this was nothing short of miracle! To be objective, I still had numbness and still do even now, a month later, as I write this review, however, the pain is gone and Im able to walk without limping; Also I think it is worth mentioning that about six month ago, my family and I booked a week long cruise on Caribbean which sadly I was going to cancel due to pain from herniated disc. However, and fortunately, after surgery with Dr. Ditsworth I was able to go, (although I could not swim nor lift anything heavier than a gallon of milk..). It had been over a month since my surgery on 1/17/19 and so far I am doing well. I returned to work, still have numbness in my left foot ( my buttocks numbness is gone), remained pain free and plan to get an MRI in about 2-3 month to see what is going on there. Many thanks to Dr. Ditsworth and his team for getting my life back on track. Hope my review helps and good luck."
