Lumbar spinal disc degeneration is no fun. One of the worst things you can do if you have this…read morecondition is participate in high impact sports such as running. I used to run 25 to 30 miles a week and did this for about 8 years. Unknowingly at the time, my lumbar spine and hips took a beating. I received a lumbar spinal fusion in 2001, and had complications (lumbosacral root disorder, hip spine syndrome and arthritis). Those complications led to my falling and sustaining 5 concussions (post concussion syndrome) in the last 2 years, and using a walker and a cane for mobility. Dr. Eric Ericson is my neurologist. I selected him after researching his credentials, which are outstanding. We also share the same alma mater (Go Cats!) so I felt comfortable immediately with him. What I like most about him is he listens and is supportive. The brain MRI results enabled him to create a plan tailored to my needs. With all of the falls, I've developed PTSD and painfully intense hip problems, too. I'm receiving hip injections, physical therapy, and massage and psychological counseling. Some days I want to throw in the towel, but my care team and family have been so supportive that there is no way I could ever let them down. I'm still climbing the mountain to recovery and know it will be strenuous at times, but I'm in good hands. I highly recommend Dr. Ericson and his staff because they not only know their stuff, but they really care. Yes, they care.

The issue is that because they have so many patients, they rush you in and out. They are no help when it comes to paperwork like FMLA. My family and I are going through such a difficult time adapting to my mother's new diagnosis. The staff was rude, not understanding, and short tempered when you ask one too many questions. This includes their manager Jodee. She didn't like my tone when I kept asking to give me a reason as to why they won't sign the FMLA. From "doctor just doesn't do it," to, "it's in her policy ," but they can't show me any written form. From being told that I shouldn't tell the doctor how to do her job, to having to find a new Neurologist after the patient advocate told me they don't like doing paperwork, they just want to get patients in and out. How are you supposed to trust an office like that? I found her a different neurologist, but of course doctors have a long wait, so it's delayed her care some. Now, I have been waiting for them to send a referral over to a different hospital for my mother's Neuro-psych appointment since they last saw her, and it's been over one month they told me they would do it only for the other hospital to tell me they never sent anything. When I called this Neuro Clinic I asked why it hasn't been sent over and they dismissed me with a ,"All I can do is send it," but I've received another call from Neuro-psych telling me they still haven't received anything. I left Alicia Green staff a voicemail asking for an update and it's been 2 business days and still no response. They are delaying her care immensely, and they don't seem to care because she's just another random patient to them. This is my mother, I don't care how annoying they find me, but I will make sure she is taken care of. Could you imagine the terrible care they would give if I wasn't there advocating for her? Terrible.

Lumbosacral root pain is unlike anything I've ever experienced. The ER staff were top notch and worked hard to relieve my pain and admitted me to find out the root of the problem. Every nurse, technician, assistant, doctor, specialist, etc. was attentive and helpful. It was a neurosurgeon who discovered that a screw in my lumbar area is touching my sciatic nerve. There is nothing to be done about it as it's too risky. However, we are going to do extensive rehabilitation to build the muscle around the area. It will help to manage the pain. More about that when I begin the sessions. So, if you're looking for attentive, knowledgeable, and expert care, this hospital is the place to go. I'm grateful for everyone who helped care for me.

Once you get to the clinic (which is hidden way in the back, almost as difficult to find as the building itself), the staff and physical therapists are friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. The receptionist said the neurologist had already sent over my records and insurance info, so I was ready to get started with PT and testing right away. What a relief. The clinic itself is brand new and the only one in the state of Indiana. They have a ginormous "gym" for all the crazy obstacle courses and agility/balance tests, providing plenty of space for each patient to roll around in every wonky position the PTs put you in. It's not very private, which can be a little embarrassing and a LOT entertaining, depending on your point of view. The equipment and gadgets seem like something out of a sci-fi movie; I'm not a doctor (and I don't even play one on TV), but this seems like an asset to me. They strapped me into these giant space-age infrared goggles which took a video of my eye movement during the tests. Freaky! Maybe I'll get to see the footage someday.
