I had two surgeries by Dr. Lieberman; one in 05 a cervical fusion c4,5,6 and on in 07, a thoracic laminectomy from T9-T12. I was on a lot of pain medicine when I met Dr. Lieberman. He did the cervical surgery, and told me to just stop the meds (I was on too big of a dose to "just stop") and when I reduced the meds, the pain was still there. Many years later I found out the discs never fused. In the meantime, I had also told him about my low back and I made a bad decision to go back to him. He insisted the pain in my low back and legs were from a fat lipoma that needed to be removed. He scared me into the surgery telling me I would be paralyzed from the waste down if I didn't have it removed. So he did a a Thoracic laminectomy from T9-T12 but then abandoned the surgery and left the lipoma in my spine. He said it was too connected to the nerves (he had told me it was fat). So he left it there. I continue to have both the pain in my arm and chest and also my low back and legs. I am on disability. The leg pain covers the L5S1 dermatone paths and an emg shows an l5si radiculopathy but still no surgeon will do the surgery because Dr. Lieberman said the pain was coming from the lipoma...the one that was going to paralyze me if I didn't have the surgery immediately. I had these surgeries in his hospital. The Surgical Specialty Hospital and the second surgery I was there for 6 days because nurses kept opening the spinal fluid tap "accidently", which I call incompetence. It was excruciating headaches for 6 days. I called several times after to get an appointment with him and the staff would say "Is it something new?" and refuse to schedule an appointment bcz it was the same pain he didn't fix after 2 spine surgeries. I feel he did the second surgery on me to help fund his hospital. I don't think he maintains a Dr.'s ethics and he is out for himself only. He cut into my spine twice and then abandoned me.
