Having sent Dr. Katzman my MRI and medical reports, he assured me he could fix my spinal stenosis and cure my severe right leg pain. Not accepting Medicare, we were to pay $15,000 cash and approximately $3,000 travel and hotel expenses to travel to Altamonte, Florida

 A few days after returning to Michigan after surgery, I experienced severe leg pain again.  Dr. Katzman told me to shut down the pain with pain pills. Nothing worked and I suffered from July to November.  I had to have a second surgery which corrected the spinal stenosis and I am now fine. The surgeon who did the second surgery told me the laser surgery that Dr. Katzman did  made my problem worse!
