Dr. Paul Marshall Keller, MD

This doctor did two lumbar surgeries, which left me with flatback syndrome and in terrible pain for the last five years. The problem is that the proper curvature in my lower back was not restored, leaving me with only a 5-degree curvature (lordosis, 40 degrees is normal). To correct the problem, a major PSO surgery needs to be done to cut a section out of the bone in my spine and fuse the two adjoining vertebrae to restore the proper curvature. This is a major surgery that may worsen the nerve damage already present in my L-5 nerve compression, which was the reason for the first surgery, and may leave me with foot drop. Both lumbar surgeries had hardware failures.

The problem is that the surgeries did restore the proper curvature in my lower back, leaving me with only a 5-degree curvature (lordosis). To correct the problem, a PSO surgery needs to be done to cut a V in my spine and fuse the two adjoining vertebrae to restore the proper curvature. This is a major surgery that may worsen the nerve damage already present in my L-5 nerve compression, which was the reason for the first surgery, and leave me with foot drop. I wish I had never let him touch my lumbar spine.

Dr. Keller performed lumbar Spine Surgery. All personnel on doctors 's team that I interfaced with were personable, professional and acted to insure my comfort and understanding of the procedure. I was equally impressed with the office staff.

Excellent staff, very knowledgeable! Dr. Keller is amazing. I am pain free after a lumbar discectomy! My rating is a big 10!!

Excellent results

My daughter had Microdiscectomy due to a herniated disc sitting on a nerve. She had pain down her left leg for months. We tried everything before we decided to proceed with surgery. We asked neighbors and coworkers for references and Dr. Keller was the first name they mentioned. My daughter went ahead with the surgery and is now pain free. He gave my daughter’s life back to her. She is now back to her everyday activities once more. We are beyond grateful to Dr. Keller.

Dr. Keller is Awesome. Very personable and listens to your concerns. He resolved my back and leg pain after realigning my spine. I can't say enough about how good he is. I would recommend Dr. Keller to anyone with back concerns. He and his staff are always friendly and ready to assist. Thank you very much.

Great orthopedic surgeon. Very thorough in diagnosis and treatment. Good listener. Answers all questions so that there is a clear understanding of treatment plan.

I had worked with him previously in the operating room, along with several of his peers. When it came to choosing which surgeon I wanted for my herniated lumbar disc, it was a no brainer. He is the very best! I was suffering for a long time with awful pain that effected every aspect of my life. Just a few weeks after my microdiscectomy, I was a new person. I’m about one year out from my surgery, and I still have no pain or deficits. I would recommend Dr. K and his team to anyone with a herniated disc or other back issue.

I had a lumbar microdiscectomy with Dr. Keller in September and the process from start to finish was so easy. His office staff is great. Barbara, his PA, was wonderful. Dr. Keller has a great bedside manner and took the time to really explain things thoroughly. The results from my surgery were amazing. I would recommend him to anyone with no hesitation.
