Dr. Czerwein was highly recommended by my rheumatologist, who had utmost confidence in his expertise on cervical issues and skill with surgery. Dr. Czerwein recommends surgery for my discs, but also made me feel comfortable with my decision to try medication and lifestyle changes first. I know that if surgery is where I am headed, I am confident with Dr. Czerwein as my surgeon, but I am grateful he recognized and respected my apprehension and my choice.
