I saw Dr Gerlach after several other treatments by other providers did not help my condition.
I had a cyst in the lumbar region of my back displacing 2 nerves and causing a lot of pain/discomfort.
I first tried a number of treatments by other providers throughout 2021.
My treatments included physical therapy (with 2 different companies), spinal injection (no help), an attempt to drain the cyst (helped for about 3 days) and finally saw Dr Gerlach.
Dr Gerlach advised that to properly treat my condition, I needed L4 and L5 vertebrae fused.
Dr Gerlach operated in March 2022.
Throughout my care, Dr Gerlach was exemplary - he explained what was wrong with my back, what he could (and could not) do to help and what to expect during my treatment, surgery and recovery.
I am pain free and active with skiing, mountain biking, running, hiking and backpacking.
Thank you Dr Gerlach!

This doctor did not insult me about my weight and took into consideration how scared I was about my condition. He also pointed out that I had scoliosis when several other doctors told me I did not have it . Although the wait time is awful you get really great service and care for the time you wait so it is worth it.
