Default Dr. Zigler vs Dr. Park??

Hi Everyone,

I am new to this group and I can't tell you how wonderful it was to find such a wonderful place for resources and support!

I was wondering if anyone is familiar with Dr. Jon Park or any other doctor performing cervical fusions or disc replacements at Stanford University.
Or any experiences having the same performed by Dr. Zigler at the Texas Back Institute?

After being told by 3 spine doctors here in south florida that I am in need of 2level fusion (C5,6 C6,7) I found that both these doctors are doing 2-level disc replacement studies for the Mobi-C made by LDR.

So I am looking for information from people who have had experiences from either of these doctors to help me decide which place to go because I know that so much of the outcome especially the multiple fusion lies in the hands of the doctor performing the surgery.

There is a doctor much closer up in the Orlando area, Dr. Tall, but upon reading up on his backround and credentials, he doesn't seem to be any where close to these other doctors leagues. (Could be wrong!)

This is a bit of a scary process and I admire those of you who have gone through it. It's not fun especially when you are in the hands of doctors you don't know.

Thanks so much for your input and help!
Hope you all have a WONDERFUL rest of the weekend.

LyndieS
