I went to Dr. Harris with sciatica pain 4/2017. I was on the table by 6/16/17. I had an S5-L1 fusion with disc replacement. First weeks went by and then months with no recovery from the post op back pain. I did months more of physical therapy, injections, neurostimulator implant and weeks of recovery, a surgical revision and months of recovery, then 2 more additional surgeries and more months of recovery to try to fix what was damaged during my surgery with Dr. Harris. I ended up losing the ability to ride motorcycle, to walk more than a block, to sit for any extended period of time, to sleep with my wife, to play with my grandchildren. I lost my job. I lost everything I had strived for in my life. I was making more money than I ever had at a job that I loved, working with great people in a technical field I spent 4 years and 40k in student loans going to school for. Now, I'm disabled. Permanently. I wake up everyday to the same nothing that I've woken up to for almost 7 years now. I have nothing to look forward to. Dr. Harris never spoke with me again after surgery. He gets a one star because he showed up the day of surgery. This is my outcome. I honestly hope anyone, and everyone else's is different.
