Review for Dr. Reckmeyer
I had extreme pain in my right leg and butt. Dr. Vande Guchte performed a laminectomy on 4 of my vertebra which completely eliminated the pain. Recovery went well. Dr. Vande Gutche did a spinal fusion for me 10 years ago with a similar excellent outcome.

Review for Dr. Cullan
I didn't have to wait and was in and out quickly. The doctor took time to go over my X-Rays with me and a plan of action. I would highly recommend.
