I am a 44 year old physician who was extremely fit and active before suffering a left L4-L5 disc herniation in March 2020. For those who have suffered similarly, you know the extent to which an individual will go to to experience pain relief and functionality. My initial therapeutic journey included acupuncture, physiotherapy, Eldoa, Lagree, Fascial Stretch, local injections, and literally every pain medication imaginable. Nothing worked. For 5 long months I suffered, and suffered, and waited for some improvement. Something,… Anything. And it never came. I woke up in pain, limped in pain, and lost joy in life. Pain accompanied me when I played with my children, hung out with my wife and friends, and operated in the OR.
Out of desperation I reached out to Dr Ron and Back Clinics of Canada in August 2020. And I cannot express enough with words how glad I am that I did. Dr. Ron has given me my life back. And my joy. I can now operate without pain, have started physical training again, and have recovered the joy in my life that was lost. I can wrestle with my tykes, and am slowly working back to my pre-injury functionality. I have Dr Nusbaum and his team to thank for this.
From a customer service point of view, this clinic is stellar. I have my own medical clinic and was always impressed with the teams’ dedication to excellence. They have always been accommodating to me and welcome me with the same smiles and kindness as the first day I visited. And everyone’s expertise is exemplary, from the front desk, to the technicians, to the practitioner. Dr. Ron told me I was a “slow burner” and needed some extended treatment. I could have sunk because of my desperation to get better ASAP. But his team always reinforced that I needed to stay positive because a disc herniation recovery is a roller coaster that can test your faith and hope. Through it all Dr. Ron was always reassuring and never gave up on me. And finally, I am reaping the rewards.
I rarely write google reviews. But BCOC gave me my life and functionality back. Individuals seeking lower back pain relief should consider Dr. Ron’s program earlier in their therapeutic journey. Lastly, there is no stronger testimonial I can think of than “with gratitude, thank you”.
