Spineone Patient Review

By Jerome J Hoffman


Jerome Hoffman was a patient at SpineOne in Denver, CO. He was violently rear-ended in an automobile accident in 2012 and needed help for acute back and neck pain.

For his initial appointment with SpineOne, he was seen by a Medical Doctor who specialized in Spinal disorders. The doctor diagnosed Jerry was having sciatic nerve pain from pressure that was on the sciatic nerve due to a slipped disc that occurred because of the accident. sciatic nerve pain due to a herniated disc that was caused by the collision. After the diagnosis, Jerry and the doctor discussed a plan of action and the Doctor came up with a very thorough plan of treatment. This treatment plan included 3 injections - 2 in the back region, 1 in the neck area. Medicine was a part of the treatment plan as well as Physical Therapy. The first of the injections, combined with Physical Therapy to help boost his core, had him started on the road to recovery.

Jerome took 2 months of serious physical therapy and a targeted injection before he felt he could start to feel good about his back and neck. After 4 months of therapy and the last injection, he discontinued the medication and could start to do some of the things that he did before the accident - pick up a bag of groceries, hold a baby. He continued to do physical Therapy 2-3 times a week, in which the focus was strengthening his core and instructing him how to do exercises by himself. The Physical therapist that he worked with was very clear that she made sure that Jerome did his "assignments" each and every week. After 6 calendar months, Jerome was pleased to proclaim that he was "pain-free" and no longer had back pain. Or neck pain.

As Jerry mentions in the SpineOne Patient Review , the things he really liked about SpineOne was that everything is underneath one roof. He did his MRI at SpineOne, his injections were done at SpineOne, and his physical therapy started and finished at SpineOne. SpineOne's offices are just 4 blocks west of Yosemite on park meadows drive in Lone Tree, Colorado. Jerry also says that he especially like how great the staff was - friendly and helpful!
