The entire experience was professional and very easy.
Swedish Patient
Dr. Litvack was only surgeon in area that does outpatient surgery for superior cluneal nerve entrapment. He was very concerned with helping me resolve this issue which was misdiagnosed at least 6 times. Someone needs to let other back surgeons know about this condition. My research shows 14 million patients have this condition and are misdiagnosed like I was,(I was even told by neurosurgeons at Overlake Hospital that I should see a psychiatrist because I was imagining the pain)!
Swedish Patient
They've always treated me with kindness, dignity and respect. That's the reason I had my husband transfer his services to their office to be seen by them as well.
Swedish Patient
