I been there and they just wanted to remove my hardware and sew me back up, I didnt agree with that, I knew my spine was unstable and I already had 4 n L5 fusion and this felt like L-3 was shot, so I took a pass on their offer of just removing the hardware and found a Dr in Sarasota,FL, Dr Mark Harper. He looked at my xrays and called it right on the head, He removed all the hardware and fused L-3 and put new hardware in, taken a yr to heal, but Im very happy with the out come, im 95% better and its still getting better. but Laser Spine Institute would be good for a simple disc problem, but major reconstruction I wouldnt bother with them, its out of there area of back problems and I had 8 spine operations, I know when they know if they know what they are talking about or just guess and want your money, they are a marketing machine and are very nice, Im just saying if your problem is tuff too figure out .get another Dr that knows Major Spine surgery. But I wouldnt be scared of them for a simple disc problem.
