Dr. Cantor did my surgery in May 2022. I flew in from New Mexico to see him after researching doctors all over the country. He and his staff are absolutely wonderful. Prior to my surgery, I would rate my pain at between a 7 to 9. Since my surgery, I am 100% pain-free. I recommend him wholeheartedly!
@@misamisa2677 my pain started in the back of my neck and then nerve pain began radiating down my right arm and my first and second finger went numb. The nerve pain was excruciating.
Had this op in 2018 in Hong Kong on two lumbar joints, L3/L4 and L4/L5. Walking with the aid of a crutch and a walking stick one day, in hospital for 24 hours and had the op., walked out of hospital the next day unaided. Magic absolute Magic! Resumed my hill walking and regularly do 25 Km per week. Absolutely no pain and with a spine which feels like it did 40 years ago - I am now 80!
Why is this procedure not being adopted by big Health Centers and bt majority of doctors. If this is less expensive than the traditional spinal fusion/laminectomy why is it not recognized by Medicare and major health insurance.
Oh man I so need this surgery on my neck and lower back!!! I will call the office to make sure my insurance is covered there after the New Year. This will be so much better than the plan they have for me.
Dr. Cantor!!! Hello!! 🙂 Imagine my surprise when I just happened upon your videos while looking for an explaination of the spacer procedure my friend will be having. I see you are still doing wonderful work helping people. You operated on my neck in Nov. 2003 at Imperial Point Med Ctr, (now Broward Health Imperial Point). My recovery period was unavoidably extended due my husband having heart attack. But when I was able to complete the physical therapy, I was sooo much better. 19 years later, my neck is still functioning at 100%. I work in an office on the computer. I've had no more neck pain, and no mobility issues. I thank God for directing me to you for care. May God continue to bless you as you bless others! Lauri Haire, Sr. Fin. Analyst Broward Health
My situation exactly, same impingements in same locations, same pain and reductions in activity. I no longer run, play golf or tennis and walking distances more than 100 yds becomes painful. If I do any activity where I am bent at the waist for more than 5-10 minutes the pain starts and becomes to severe to remain in a bent position. I take Tramadol ER to help with general pain in my lower back and around the waist but the nerve pain that occurs with anything other than light activity threatens all the time. I also have cervical stenosis with 3 bulging discs that cause burning pain on the upper side of my right shoulder and neck if I lean my head forward for anything other than a few minutes, I have to keep my head erect.

I had a laminectomy/Discectomy Jan 2019. This left my spine unstable and nerves crushed! June 2019 had a spine fusion. Since this I had si joint issues. I had bilateral ifuse in June 2021. All these surgeries has ruined my life. I live in AGONY. This dr is correct. I don’t know anyone that has had a spine surgery and are doing better. I wish I knew about what this dr is saying a few years ago. I did years of PT and Injections and that did absolutely nothing to help.

Hi Doctor, you're AMAZING and that process makes 100% so much more sense than removing and replacing like the 'typical' back operations. I have been getting the epidural shots from time to time and they do help. I will be 69 in December so not a young man but pretty active, i was working a physical FT job 10 hours a night but i took some time off, honestly i do feel better now. I have some arthritis but i was doing LOTS of stretching prior to work which was 3pm-1:30am and the stretching does help me, i also own a hyperextension machine to stretch things out when i want or need to. I am a VERY proactive patient and keep myself healthy and in shape. I love your videos and the POSITIVE results your patients are obtaining and happy for them. Is that paid for by typical insurance like United health care?
@@DrJeffreyCantor Thank you Doctor for your personal reply, I will keep your website in my favorites. I had a few RECENT MRI's for reference.

If i start to get lower back pain again i can call your office and see what you need for a consultation, i live in NC but i could take a trip down. To me your procedure seems less invasive with no mechanical alterations.

I had 3 laminectomies in my lumber area. L3-L4, L4- L5, L5- S1. I wish that I would have seen this before I had three removed. Now my symptoms are worse with the nerve pain in my lower extremities than they where before the surgery. So now with the failed back surgery, is this type of surgery still possible for better results? Please help. I really do need some help. Thank you.

You cannot fix instability (spondylolisthesis) with this. Instability is one reason fusion is performed. Also if your problem is an anterior osteophyte from a disk, you cannot reach it at upper levels of the spine where the spinal cord will be in the way, from a posterior approach.

this makes total sense to me, the way Doctor Cantor explains this is amazing. I cant wait for my consulatation and hopefully surgery by him.

Why is this procedure not being adopted by big Health Centers and bt majority of doctors. If this is less expensive than the traditional spinal fusion/laminectomy why is it not recognized by Medicare and major health insurance.
bc it is not - if he does it it is more expensive
bc it only works for some things, in a lot of cases a fusion is the best option and this is what he told me
Excellent explanation. Really wish the patient would have had a the surgery and described it and the recovery from the patient standpoint.
Oh man I so need this surgery on my neck and lower back!!!

Hi Patty I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….🌹🌹
I had a laminectomy then Fusion 2 years later, does that process impact on the peripheral disc at each end of the fusion eventually.

Any hope for us who are not in America ?
I think they are working on this in the UK. But do check it thoroughly out. Many doctors do not seem to take the time to explain the EXACT SURGERY they are to perform.
People travel from all over the world to see Dr. Cantor. I flew in to see him from New Mexico. He is located in Florida. It was well worth the trip. I am 100% pain free!
Are there plans to license this technology for use in other countries?
Great info☀️

I had 3 laminectomies in my lumber area. L3-L4, L4- L5, L5- S1. I wish that I would have seen this before I had three removed. Now my symptoms are worse with the nerve pain in my lower extremities than they where before the surgery. So now with the failed back surgery, is this type of surgery still possible for better results? Please help. I really do need some help. Thank you.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your quick response back! Hopefully, there is hope for people like me who are in pain everyday.
Every procedure has pros and cons ingeneral . what's the cons of ultrasonics
You cannot fix instability (spondylolisthesis) with this. Instability is one reason fusion is performed. Also if your problem is an anterior osteophyte from a disk, you cannot reach it at upper levels of the spine where the spinal cord will be in the way, from a posterior approach.
@@bengt_axle nice 👍.but then what's the cons of fusion?
@@Elsonoliveira716 adjacent segment syndrome.
he used this cutting device so has to do open surgery to get it in there then fuses you anyway so no big advantage he is just selling hype
What exactly is the "ultrasonic" part of this? You still need to cut bone and ligaments on one side?

The spinal nerves are below lamina
So no, it doesn't seem to matter if the tips of the lamina are twisted and it is not that uncommon.

Hi how are you doing? it's nice coming across your profile. where are you from?
So get discectomy. Got it
This doesn't work
Is it worth it to get surgery
I sent this guy my images that showed a bone spur and degenerative disc disease and he told me I need a fusion - go figure
and he charged my insurance co almost 1k dollars for a 15 min phone consultation in which he took very little time to discuss
