Default HydroCision or equivalent

I am a male, 43, never had a broken bone in life and now have MRI confirmed herniated L5-S1 disc pressing against nerve with shooting pain down back if left leg only thru buttocks, hamstring, calf and bottom of foot. Family guy and scared but all non-surgical option now lead to discectomy. Research seems to show least traumatic surgery is orthoscopic discectomy with HydroCision or waterjet equivalent. Does any neurosurgeon do that kind of surgery in or near central Kentucky? I can sit, stand or walk for 2 minutes maximum before having to lay down flat in back. Already missed 2 weeks of work. Sciatic pIn since April and getting worse. There are few neuros in CA, like David Ditsworth, Stanton Schiffer and Larry Khoo, but none in Ky. Please help me. I don't want regular "minimally invasive surgery" with any bones being drilled. Posted August 5, 20210. Matt Bunch 859-797-3164. Emails to me at matt@bunchlaw.com. Thx.
