Cervical spine fusion

I was left with left arm partial paralysis and a lot of neuropathy after my cervical spine fusion. My arm may improve but the neuropathy is with me for the rest of my life. I am now clinically depressed after surgery by Dr. Kakarla.

Perhaps ok surgeon but very Uncaring

This man put my wife in a wheelchair for three years. After her surgery, it was as if she had a stroke. when asking why she can't walk anymore he dismissed me with "she should be able to" in a very clear to, me to not bother him with questions.

Exceptional Doctor

Can't rave enough about his expertise. He did my daughters spine spine surgery and I felt at ease. That she was in good hands.

Best best best dr I've ever seen!!!

When no Drs in my home state of Ohio took me serious and gave very bad, harmful advice to me, Dr Kakarla did the opposite and has completely changed my life...he's giving me my life back and doesn't even realize just how much he's done for me...I know this is his job and it's what he does, but for me, my misery was my life and my reality.

Five Stars

Kakarla is a great doc who explains things in a manner that I can understand. We have a great relationship as he jokes around and ensures that I am calm.

Five Stars
