Herniated Disc (Bulging Disc)

Ryan Rothstein

When I first came to HSS for evaluation, I could not even stand up straight because my back was in so much pain. After being diagnosed with 2 herniated discs, I was very afraid that I would need surgery to ever been pain-free again. Luckily, Olivia was able to work with me for physical therapy for several months, and I am happy to report that I am now mostly pain-free and able to stand up straight! Olivia was extremely helpful in explaining my potential outcomes and working to ensure I got best results. I am so happy to have met her and recommend her to anyone who needs PT!
