I had fusion of L4 and L5 surgery January 2019 and still to this day I’m in severe pain. Having this surgery was the worst decision I ever made in life. I’m limited to physical activity and pretty much limited to an altered lifestyle. I’m experiencing weakness, numbness and pain that I didn’t have prior to the surgery. My life has been turned upside down. Please don’t allow this doctor to do this to you.

My discectomy was 10 years ago and I am still pain free. I'm happy that I went to Dr Eichholz.

Will not recommend this doctor. Bad experience with the surgery he performed. The surgery turned out nothing like he said it would.

Dr. Eichholz did a great job when I had a ruptured disc. His office was easy to schedule with, and got me in right away. I had previously seen two other surgeons, and they spent about 5 minutes in the room with me. Dr. Eichholz is the only one that showed me my MRI and explained what he was going to do. I had surgery in the outpatient surgery center, and it was excellent. Beautiful facility, great staff, easy in and out. If you have a spine problem, Dr. Eichholz is the one to see.

I was seen by two other neurosurgeons, who spent about 5 minutes in the room with me. Dr. Eichholz listened to my issues, and is the only surgeon who actually showed me my MRI. Had surgery in outpatient surgery center, and it was a great experience. His office was great with scheduling appointment, and with scheduling surgery. My pain was immediately improved. I would recommend Dr. Eichholz to any patient with a spine issue.
