This is the best place full of experts. I couldn’t have been happier to recommend. The doctor spends very valuable time with you going over the issues that you are currently facing and why and also brings a lot of options to the table as far as treatments. Amazing relief from pain right after the injections.

After years of suffering caused by a herniated disc, being a military firefighter who loves physical activity, I sought a solution from Dr Montesano. An extremely attentive, friendly and empathetic gentleman understood, due to my situation, my need to perform a disc replacement instead of a disc fusion. I underwent medical evaluations, carried out the necessary exams and on July 24, Dr Montesano and his team successfully performed the disc replacement (PRODISC L). I left the hospital the next day walking. In a few days I returned to Dr Montesano's office whose smile of happiness (unforgettable and unique) was no bigger than mine, not only because of the success of the surgery, but also because of the end of the pain. I'm back. swimming and I'm waiting for a while longer to get back to racing. I'm very well and have no pain or movement limitations. Oh!!! Don't be fooled by Dr Montesano's smile, he has a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Jokes aside, I would like to thank Dr Montesano and his office team for all the attention given during the pre-operative and post-operative process. God bless you and continue to bless the people in your care.Feedback after 6 months of surgery.Patient: A VilelaDOB: October 31, 1967.Age: 57 years oldHeight: 5.07Weight: 158 poundsSurgery: L5/S1 lumbar disc replacement (Prodisc L), July 25, 2024. Sarasota.Post-operative evolutionAfter the surgery carried out on July 25, 2024, recovery took place without major efforts until November 2024.Feeling good, wanting to run again, I made an action plan to run a 5K at a constant speed. I felt so good that I chose not to seek help from physiotherapists.To help with strengthening, I started using a weight vest which, together with the CamelBack, totals a load of around 19 pounds.Evolution- November 2024: Walk 5K to 6K (3.10 to 3.72 miles).

I had suffered years. I had a botched double fusion in my cervical spine from a previous surgeon in Tampa. I had met with 15 different surgeons and no one could fix the botched surgery until I met Dr. Montesaro Cervical Spine In Sarasota. 🙏❤️. I am about 10 months after surgery and I am completely a different person. I am my old self again I am happy I am strong. I am on zero pain medication. I feel great. I feel like my old self again and if it wasn’t for Dr. Montesaro Cervical Spine about me, my mental and physical health and pain, the knowledge and skill that he has he is a saint! He is an angel he saved me, and he will save you too. James, the nurse at the office, is a wonderful person. He makes you feel so welcome and is so kind and smart. The office is gorgeous and comfy and every single visit was a wonderful experience. I can’t thank Dr. Montesano enough. I thank God for him.
