Posterior Cervical Laminectomy and Fusion - Procedure details, recovery, and expectations.

Best education on the whole procedure I've seen. He's brutally honest and spot on with the time frames. THE go to video.

Your explination and animation video is absolutely Top Of The Line. My surgeon has been painstakingly clear on this procedure that I have been avoiding but will finally be going through within a few days. We've reviewed X-rays and MRI films showing the spinal cord compression and the entire process that you show. Your presentation is clear and concise. I actually felt relief seeing Laminectomy animation in your video !

such an amazing teacher. Never had services from him but the confidence and competance is unparalleled

...6 months later, I have to remind myself, that I had that surgery ! I had x-rays, to check, that the "hardware" is in the right places !! ... YES !!! ...it is !!! ... I asked that question to "ArmaghaniSpine" 6weeks after and he kindly responded, ...if you are not in pain, it should be alright !!! ...he was right !! Thank you again !!! ...still numb hands, but I know, it is a matter of time .... I can do everything, even playing guitar !!! ...rocknroll !!!

I was just noticing your willingness to answer questions. You are my hero! Thank you for your kindness!!!

Your videos would be excellent pre-op tools for a Spine Camp! They are informative without being overwhelming. Thank you for presenting the information.

Thank you for your clear and concise explanation of this procedure. My husband had this procedure after 2 failed anterior surgeries. Non- union and broken screws leading to chronic pain and inability to work such that we are now on SSDI. Once we discovered that the 2nd anterior procedure failed he was only left with this option. His surgery was 1 week ago and the pain at the base of his head has been tremendous. They fused C2-T1. Not much is helping his high pain level. Watching this video helps me to understand the trauma his body has undergone and accept that time is needed. This is a very invasive procedure (necessary, but traumatic to the body) Thank you. Doctors like you are a blessing and treasure 🙏🙏❤️❤️

Your videos are great, they're very easy to follow along during surgeries, thus putting my patients at ease.

Awesome overview!!!! My mom just had surgery a few days ago and your explanation of everything she had done is amazing! Thank you :)

Thank you for such a precise and informative video of an ACDF surgery. Because of this video, I am far more confident about my upcoming procedure.

This was an excellent summation and animation of the procedure. Thank you for this explanation!

BTW your videos helped me a great deal in my cervical fusion and now my recent L5/S1 surgery. I appreciate your time and thorough explanation. My surgeon is phenomenal but not great on communication. I like to have a thorough explanation along with expectations. I even watch surgeries online prior to having mine. I’m weird like that I guess. Thanks again.

1.8 weeks post surgery (C3 to C6) and found your YouTube channel today. A confidence builder for me. Off all narcotics after 8 days. Managing pain now with Tylenol..my only ongoing issue is getting comfortable sleeping with the hard collar. Walking has been difficult due an extremely painful reoccurring heel spur and plantar fasciitis. Working on that as pre open my posture, balance and gait had degraded so bad that walking even 50ft was almost impossible. My experience post on is each day is exponentially better than the previous day.

Excellent overview. Very informative. Your patients are very lucky to have you.

I found this very interesting. In 2019 I got a C-5, C-6 and C-7 laminectomy. Now almost 3 years later, my right hand has remained numb and my neck very sore. In 2010 I had an L-3 and L-4 laminectomy. That really helped me a lot. I could barely walked for 9 years and finally the specialist noticed the way that I walked. The morning that I had my operation did me so much good. I was able to walk without pain after so long. In 2000, they found out that I had Thoracic outlet Syndrome. In 2005, I had my left 1st rib removed. I felt so good. In 2006, I had my right rib removed. I could barely use my right hand. There was complication when the specialist cut my lung. It took me quite some time before I was ok. Like I said, after all that I went through my neck has been the worse and I can't seem to get better. Thank you so much for sharing your channel. It does really help me with what I'm going through.

Thank you for such a simplistic explination for the layman who have a limited understanding of the spinal anatomy. Your information delivery here is excellent. I have had a two level lumbar surgery in 2010. Unfortunatly I have had many complication with my spine since. I have been diagnosed with cervical stenosis and I was looking for info on this issue and came across your post. I have been walking with a cane since the surgery and my posture has changed dramatically. My my entire spine has been effected and I'm currently dealing with a diagnosis of cervical stanosis. I now need to begin the process of finding solutions for my spinal issues. Again, thank you so much. I feel much more informed and will use this as a reference through this process so I can understand and communicate with my Doctor on a more informed level.

Best explanation I've found on you tube. Very informative. Thank you!

I am having this soon, and you really made me feel so much better and confident.

God bless you and looking forward to my surgery!

I am facing fusion surgery from C2 -C7. This was very easy to understand and addressed a lot of my questions about outcome and recovery time. Thank you.
