Re: back surgery problems
Maybe, it depends on what type of surgery it was. What kind of herniations did you have? Was there nerve root impingement? What levels? What was your pain beforehand? What is it now? Lots of questions.
Where are you located? If you are located in the NY Metro area (anywhere from NYC to Long Island to Orange County), I would like to talk to you further about a potential suit.
