Shimon Rochkind - Doctor in Israel
I am considering lumbar surgery with Dr. Shimon Rochkind in Tel Aviv, Israel for epidural fibrosis binding my nerves.
Has anyone heard of him or had surgery with him? Your replies are appreciated!!! Alex (messed up spine after several prior low back and neck surgeries) |

Alex, are they using the term 'epiduroscopy'?
Please keep us posted about your research and progress. All the best, Mark

Epiduroscopy
No, definitely not epiduroscopy. More along the lines of microsurgical neurolysis (removal of scar tissue that is encapsulating the nerve roots)
I have spoken to multiple specialists in the U.S. about epiduroscopy and have been told time and again that the results are abysmal. Maybe they do something better or different in Europe? -Alex |
