Neuroscience Specialists

Referred by her primary care physician, Betty came to Neuroscience Specialists and saw Dr. Fadi Nasr for the first time in September of 2008. At that time Dr. Nasr had recently joined Neuroscience Specialists after completing a spinal deformity and complex spine fellowship at Northwestern Hospital in Chicago, Illinois. Betty had suffered from scoliosis, otherwise known as adult spinal deformity for many years. In September of 2008 Betty was at her wits end, she had endured... all she could, the pain was debilitating, the activities she’d once enjoyed, she was no longer able to participate in, her quality of life had diminished significantly. Betty underwent a long segment deformity correction surgery from T-1 to S-1, that is a total of 17 levels! Betty’s recover was amazing; functionally she exceeded both her and Dr. Nasr’s expectations. In a recent conversation, Betty told me about preoperative visit many years ago, when she asked Dr. Nasr, so after the surgery, will I ever be able to Hula Hoop again? Dr. Nasr replied, If you do, I want to see it! In September 2017, nine years after her first appointment, Betty sent Dr. Nasr this video. Yes, this is Betty; Hula Hopping at her family reunion when a relative captured this video on her phone. Today, she has no back pain and is functioning above and beyond what she ever anticipated was possible. Often people that suffer from adult spinal deformity are told there is nothing that can be done for their condition. The physician’s at Neuroscience Specialists will evaluate each patient to determine his or her best course of treatment. Many patients benefit from conservative management, including anti-inflammatories and bracing. Other patients are surgical candidates and experience life changing surgeries. If you or someone you know is suffering from an adult spinal deformity condition, schedule a consultation with one of our physician’s today at 405-748-3300. Don’t resign yourself to suffering with a condition that can be significantly improved with treatment. Betty's personal post script: My back feels wonderful and a day never passes that I don't thank God for Dr. Nasr and the Neuroscience staff for their skill and care.

Our office will be closed again tomorrow. For the safety of our patients and staff our physician’s will be seeing patients virtually. Please feel free to contact our staff tomorrow at 748-3300 for any questions or concerns. Thank you and stay safe!
