reference Dr Guyer
Thank you again for your advice. I am checking out how to contact Dr. Clavel's office and also find out Dr. Blumenthal is covered by my insurance. He and Dr. Guyer are both 2 hours away from me which is a huge blessings.
Once I have my discogram done, I can for sure consult Dr Blumenthal as well about the surgical plan. I also have received some high remarks from Dr. Guyer's former patients from this forum which is very encouraging. For me, if there is not a huge price difference, i would prefer to stay in the US just in case there is any issue after surgery.
Dr. Guyer has prescribed facet joint injection to rule out facet joint issues and then I will have a discogram and then a consultation right after. It will be in Jan due to the holiday season. I will update my situation once the surgical plan is out.
Thank you again for your advices and support. It means a lot to me.
