Dr. Divi and his team were incredible! I had multiple severely herniated discs that were also causing sciatica. For nearly 3 months, I was unable to walk, stand or sit up without considerable pain. Dr. Divi walked me through my options after thoroughly reviewing me in person and reviewing my my X-rays and MRI. We eventually decided on a microdiscectomy. He was able to schedule me quickly, and the procedure went flawlessly. I left the hospital the same day, and my pain was immediately gone. I am only 6 weeks removed, but I feel 100% as I did prior to my injury. Dr. Divi was professional, incredibly thorough, empathetic, and most importantly, the surgery went perfectly. This procedure completely changed my life and gave me my body back. I could not be happier with what he has done for me, and I would recommend him to anyone.

He was actually referred to me by NW, but I would have asked for him anyway, because he is one of only a few that did minimally invasive surgery. I think I developed a real rapport with him when I actually pronounced his name correctly upon meeting him. It really helped that I also have a friend with the name "[ ]" to practice with. He explained my options, and was pleased, I think, that my evaluation of my needs met his as well.
