Scott Tanaka, M.D.
I waited two hours and then I had a half hour of x-rays that I didn’t need but by that time I hadn’t seen Dr Tanaka!!
By the time he came in I told him I had a volunteer driver and I had to leave so he quickly said the x-rays showed nothing maybe it’s your neck. And, he’s the Dr that told me that x-rays were useless for my situation and he sent me for a CT Scan which showed a fracture and I ended up in Mercy for 3 days. I feel that I have another fracture or sometning serious and, I have to find a Dr who can help me…

Had a back surgery that only an amazing surgeon could perform. Complete lumbar disc replacements(4) and fusion from tailbone to t10. Still recovering but sciatica is gone and I'm 75. He's no miracle worker but that surgery is right next to a miracle and could only be done by ....maybe he is a miracle worker on second thought.
