Microdiscectomy: Minimally Invasive Surgery for a Herniated Disc

Patient image of: Laila Biberica

After two years of living with a herniated disc, I had a microdiscectomy at HSS. The entire experience was smooth and well-organized. Dr. Bernard Rawlins performed the surgery, and his secretary, Delisabeth, was exceptional in helping me schedule appointments around my college schedule. The team was attentive and caring, and their follow-up system is outstanding - they check in on you even years later to ensure you’re doing well. I couldn’t have asked for better care.
