L-spineThe canal narrows around the nerves, typically giving pain and heaviness that ease on sitting or leaning forward.
L-spineOne vertebra has slipped forward on the one beneath it, usually with arthritic narrowing alongside.
L-spineA bony disconnection in the vertebra, which often causes pain and can progress to one bone slipping in front of the other.

CoccyxI chose to walk away from a different surgeon and instead have Dr. Zaidi operate on my spine based off of recommendations from friends in the medical field. Every good thing you hear about him is absolutely true.Brent M.
I had a bulging disc in my neck. He got me in quickly for an MRI and suggested surgery. Same-day surgery went well. Very little scarring and hardly any after surgery pain or discomfort.Perry M.
Dr. Zaidi has been wonderful through my entire journey from misery to fused. He is kind, patient, answers questions thoroughly, and is up-to-date on new surgical techniques.Danielle B.

Very personable. Very matter of fact. Not aggressive with treatment plan; starts slow in order to try all options to avoid surgery.Kaye M.
I am impressed with my neck fusion and now seeing him for my low back.Angie D.
Dr. Zaidi performed my microdiscectomy on my far lateral herniation. He is very skilled and was so kind before, during, and after my surgery. Three months post op and I am back to my old self.Tiffany B.
Dr. Zaidi is an excellent surgeon. My back was an absolute mess. This is the best I have felt in 2 years. I can finally walk without any pain.Peggy C.
After my surgery for a pinched nerve I could barely believe it. The pain was gone and no more tingling in my hands.Sandi M.
This was my 2nd back fusion and if I have to have any other back operations, I will go back to him.Susan Y.
I put my trust in him and he did not let me down. He did a great job of laminectomy and now I can walk. This is why I've gone back to him with some other spinal problems.Mark K.
