Patient Reviews
Aug 04, 2023
I had cervical disc replacement (ADR) with Dr. Lu two weeks ago at UCLA Spine center. I did NOT need to take any pain medication! Contrary to what I’ve heard/read from all the stories on Utube and online, I was able to eat, drink and speak on day post surgery. DR. LU SPEAKS WITH HIS HANDS! Anesthesiologist Dr. Catherine Cha and her CRNA team listened to my concerns from previous anesthesia experiences and gave me the perfect Goldilocks cocktail of anesthesia. I woke up without feeling nausea nor did I vomit. I was able to walk to use the restroom before I left the hospital on the on the same day post surgery. The nurses and CNAs are thorough and attentive. Bobby Perez (and Vanessa) who updated me about my insurance approval, sending all the pre op instructions and scheduling my appointment with Dr. Lu have been so swift and attentive. What a team! I have been to 6 consultations (neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons) and have almost given up. I was ready to fly to Germany to have my surgery done until I found Dr. Lu. After all these consultations, I felt most doctors in the US were not comfortable with ADR procedure. Most are comfortable with ACDF (fusion) only. I am so blessed I qualify for ADR and to have found Dr. Daniel Lu! He has the experience in both ADR and ACDF surgeries. Never judge a man by his words but through his actions….well Dr. Lu speaks volume with his hands. No one believed I had spine surgery when they came over to visit me for the past two weeks. I am finally pain free after 3 years?? THANK YOU DR. LU ?? FOR GIVING ME MY LIFE BACK! I am forever grateful to have found Dr. Lu ??
