I am 72 years old.. In January, 2020 Dr. Hochheimer performed surgery and cleaned out the nerve channels between L3, L4, and L5. Prior to that time I was in extreme pain in my hips and legs and had severe numbness in my lower legs and could hardly stand and walk. It has been five months since my surgery and I am feeling great and performing with my legs and back like I was in my 60's. I appreciated all of his honesty, friendliness, considerations, and explanations during the process from our first meetings (a year earlier) through post-surgery. Cheyenne has a great neurosurgeon in Dr. Sven. He explained all of my options and at my age and lower back condition (which was bad) suggested no major surgery and to go through the procedure of cleaning out my nerve channels. After our first meeting a year earlier I got opinions from other out-of-town Doctors.. Sven suggested it would be safer if I lost weight and lost 40 pounds before any surgery. I would recommend Dr. Hochheimer to anyone and would be glad to visit on my email with anyone about Sven's services.
