Patient Reviews
Jan 15, 2026
I was using a walker to get around, and was dealing with significant back pain. I could see that I wasn't getting any better on my own, so I went to see Dr. Alvernia. After an MRI, thorough examination and consultation, we decided my best way forward was surgery. Dr. Alvernia was very patient with all my questions. Just talking to him made me feel better about my situation. He performed the surgery on my lower back. When I got home from the hospital, I used a walker and back brace for about two weeks. After that I began to get around pretty well for a 76 year old. I feel that I'm still continuing to heal and improve. Thank-you so much Dr. Alvernia.
