      I visited Dr Thuraikumar with severe herniated disc in two spots (L4-L5 and L5-S1) at my lower back. I could barely walk and had unbearable pain most of the day and couldn't sleep at nights. It was the worst I've ever been. At first I didn't trust a spine surgery because of the negative commentaries I read from internet, however since I didn't have any other option I agree to it. It was the best decision I've ever made!! Dr was kind, empathic and very confident in his skills to treat me. He was brutally honest about my situation from the get go and it helped me to make a decision fast enough. Surgery was done without any problem and it took me a few days to start walking again after the operation, however recovery was very fast since the moment I got back on my feet. Currently I'm 2 months post surgery and feel like having a new chance in life. My spine feels better than ever and having almost zero post-op issues. Can't say how much I'm thankful to Dr Thuraikumar for taking me as their patient.

      A very cheerful, patient & thorough doctor, explaining every single step of the process, and had given me many helpful suggestions. I was given 2 surgery options XLIF or MASTLIF (medical jargon i learnt) which are the best and fatest recovery based on Dr's suggestion. Less than 1 day, im able to get out from my bed without the back pain and limbs numbness ANYMORE. Now, im return to my normal life, my usual routine. Dr Thurai is my life savior! PS: Slight pain on the wound only. SIDE NOTE: I have a chronic back pain and numbness on my limbs for few years, the conditions worsen this year and i can barely raise them up, I was so so so afraid that i couldn't walk anymore that time before surgery. No more for now!

      Dr Thurai was amazing. I had a burst fracture on my spine and Dr Thurai just knows what to do. 1 month post-op and i'm back on my feet, as if nothing happened. Thank you Dr Thurai for believing that I could go back to normal and making it come true.

      My father sustained fractures to his leg and hand as a result of the accident. My family and I are deeply grateful to Dr. Thurai for his exceptional skill and care for making it possible for my father to regain his ability to walk and stand again. Dr. Thurai's professionalism and compassionate demeanor were invaluable. Dr Thurai's encouraging word was instrumental in my father's recovery too! We will never forget about Dr. Thurai. Thank you so much Dr. Thurai! Bless you and your family 🙏
